Why Polynesian Dance?

Exercise

Hula & other Polynesian dance forms (Ori Tahiti, Maori, Siva Samoa) are great forms of low impact exercise. Why spend tons of money on a gym membership you'll never use? Come dance with us.. but don't forget your water bottle. You'll need it!

Knowledge

In our Hālau, you'll not only learn how to dance, you'll also learn about Polynesian history, language, places and culture. Our Halau will teach you the meanings of the lyrics in the mele (songs). Here, you'll learn REAL Polynesian dance. Ours is the only Michigan Halau to study under a Kumu Hula.
