Te Hau Nui shares Hawaiian hula and Polynesian dance, culture and traditions. The art of dance is a gift to the dancer as well as to the observer; it enriches all! Te Hau Nui provides dancers of every age the opportunity for character development through dance practice, performance and to be guided by the principled values of hula traditions.

Our new larger studio space allows for us to continue sharing the sacred and festive dances of Polynesia with our beloved Santa Cruz community.

Kumu Lorraine will live on through this legacy.

Any donations will be used towards continuing her life’s work and orchestrating a celebration in her honor, a "Festival of Life” this June. Mahalo nui loa from Te Hau Nui Ohana!
