Description

Hula dancers for hire across the San Francisco Bay Area and Sacramento region for tropical-themed weddings, corporate luau nights, birthday parties, anniversaries, retirement celebrations, and community festivals. Choose a solo hula soloist for an intimate ceremony, a duo for cocktail-hour ambiance, or a full Polynesian dance show with Hawaiian hula, Tahitian otea, Samoan slap dance, and an optional fire knife dancer climax. Authentic costuming, live or recorded Polynesian luau entertainment, audience hula lesson, and lei greetings can all be added to bring the spirit of the islands to your guests.

  • Professional hula dancers performing traditional Hawaiian hula choreography
  • Hand-stitched grass skirts, ti-leaf skirts, lei, and accent-piece costuming appropriate to each routine
  • Recorded Hawaiian and Polynesian music tracks with a self-provided portable speaker; live ukulele add-on available
  • Audience-participation hula lesson segment so every guest gets to dance
  • Group photo with the dancers at the close of the show
  • Setup, change-out, and breakdown handled by the dance troupe with minimal host accommodations
