Young, older, and everyone between came out last
evening to the FPL to watch and learn about Polynesian dance from the wonderful
dance team Pele of Polynesia. In
celebration of Asian-Pacific American Heritage Month, Pele of Polynesia featured
traditional dances from Tahiti, Samoa, New Zealand, Fiji, and Hawai'i. Group
leader Bernadette (Pele) also expounded on some of the history of these traditional
dances. A special thanks as well to Josie and Jim Travlos for helping to
arrange this wonderful event, and for sharing their cultural knowledge with
those in attendance. Audience participants of all ages had a great time
learning these dances and listening to wonderful Polynesian music.
