Teva Oriata dance classes are disciplined cultural learning opportunities where students are taught traditionally. Technique and meaning behind the dances are the focus. We treat our studio (pupu ori) like a dance family that should be inclusive, respected, prided, and deserves dedication. We have fun, get good exercise, and grow together to gain strength, discipline, confidence; and build passion and lasting friendships. We are not a production company, students are not taught expeditiously to force performing. Performances are encouraged, not required. Polynesian dance is a way of life, and not just for exercise.
