Taere Tiai Polynesian Cultural Arts Center has over 10 years of dancing fun. The center is an award-winning dance group. Its founding principle is that Mana (energy) within comes from what a person sees, hears, and feels, and it holds the belief that the raw form of dance development is infinitely enhanced by the organic sound of the wood and strings and by being grounded to the floor. The mission of the center is to work towards inspiring and encouraging cultural awareness in the community’s youth in a fun and creative way.
