HAWAIIAN
HULA AND TAHITIAN FIRE DANCE SHOW
The soft sway of grass skirts and graceful hands beckon to
you, as the blowing of conch shells signals the opening of
our Tropical Dance Show. Lively Tahitian drummers and dancers
greet you with a welcome dance followed by a slow, dreamy
Hawaiian hula performed by the wahines (women), then it's
time for the kanes (men) to display their skill in a faster,
up-tempo hula from the islands.

Both
men and women then join together in a colorful display of
timing and dexterity performing with traditional Hawaiian
hula implements, the puili (split bamboo), uli uli (feathered
gourd) and ipo (dried gourd). Conjuring up images of fire
goddesses and erupting volcanoes, men and women Tahitian dancers
take center stage dancing to tribal village beats with colorful
tropical costumes.
The climax of our show arrives with our Samoan Fire Knife
Dancer performing flaming acrobatics with a fiery double bladed
knife - a thrill to see. Alas, it is time to return home,
with hearts and hands our Hula Ohana Dancers will bid you
"Aloha Oie - till we meet again."
