Why do I like dancing ?
- I forget about stress and strain
Dancing makes me smile, you can also sing with the music, breath loud, express your body...No one will judge you.
- I feel the music
When I hear Tahitian music, any type (songs, drums, or ukulele...), I can't help : I want to dance!!
- The Polynesian Culture is in my blood
My father is from Tahiti, and now living in Bordeaux in France, where I was born.
My Grand Parents are on the Island of French Polynesia called Raiatea.
My cousin started dancing when she was 4 years old. Later, she was part the world renowned "Les Grands Ballets De Tahiti" dance company and became dance teacher in New Zealand.

Why teaching it ?
~ This is all about passion for this dance, and give other people the chance to fall in love with it too ~
This dance is not well known in Ireland and deserves to be!
