Colorado College April 28 2011

Yesterday we all traveled to Colorado Springs to Colorado College and performed at their luau on campus. We had LOTS of FUN! Derek (one of our musicians) sang preshow music and then we hit the stage with live drumming and music.

Colorado College students were an awesome audience and they even gave us LOTS of food after the show. We LOVE that….

This past week we performed for CU Boulders Taste of Asia. We did a multicultural dance which featured not only Polynesian dance but also Bollywood and Bellydance. Our Tahitian Dance section featured live drummers as well. Although it was FREEZING cold outside and snow was on the ground the show went on…

The Halau (Hula School) had another successful fundraiser last night at The Fortune Valley Casino in Central City CO. The Halau managed to get 35 members to ride on the bus to the Casino for $20.00 per person. Ellen, one of our Hula Sisters coordinated the fundraiser. Ellen even had a 50/ 50 raffle on the way to the casino which gave more proceeds to the school. We had raffles on Pampered Chef products donated by Ellen as well.

Many of us gambled and won while some of us just went on to the dance floor and did what we do best… This was an awesome night and The Halau would like to say MAHALO NUI LOA to those that showed their support and Aloha Spirit last night. The group is truly blessed to have so much dedicated members.

Our hubbies support us too!

On Tues March 1st and Wed March 2nd Halau Kalama members and students got to meet my long time friend Simi Hansen Fiso who I worked with at The Mai-Kai Polynesian Restaurant in Ft. Lauderdale, FL. Simi and his brother Keawe came to Aurora, CO to help choreograph our Samoan Section, Maori Section, and Tahitian Section for our 2011 Polynesian Revue which starts on May 1, 2011 – our 4th Annual Lei Day Celebration. Not only did the Halau exprerience the creativity and talent of the two performers but also made long time friendships.
