They were prompt, got set up right away, and their costumes were wonderful. Their show flowed perfectly. My event was a luau and my guests were amazed. You can't have a luau without Hawaiian entertainment. This dance troupe made the evening perfect. Mike B.

Kim was fantastic and the kids were literally beaming with pride as they navigated their way through the various dance moves. Some feedback we got from the kids (other than how much fun it was) was that it maybe moved a little too fast for them but I also know that's the nature of this kind of dancing. While we couldn't get to Hawaii ourselves this certainly was a great way to bring a little piece of the islands to us.

I recommend this dance group to anyone. They are very entertaining and are of different ages. I had a fundraiser for my young women’s and they range from ages 12-18. It was amazing to see them really enjoy watching entertainment of their age group perform. Absolutely loved it!

That is a repeat of what my residents have stated!!!! The residents and the staff loved having this group do a performance involving multiple costume changes, fire, and audience participation. Can't wait to have them come back for our next Hawaiian Party!

What to Expect
Our typical show is 45 minutes long and includes a fire coconut dance and audience participation at no extra charge. We perform dances from the islands of Hawaii, Tahiti and New Zealand. We have several costume changes throughout the entire show and have an emcee to narrate and explain each dance.
About
Na Wahine O Ke Anuenue (Women of the Rainbow) is a Polynesian dance group that performs in the Metro Detroit area. Our dancers range in age from 5-adult. Some of us have been dancing together for over 30 years! We've studied with Kumu Hulas (Master Hawaiian teachers) and love to share our love of the Hawaiian culture. From children's birthday parties to corporate events, we'd love to take your guests on a journey through the Polynesian Islands!
Additional Booking Notes
We will need a changing area very close to the performance area - our costume changes are done in 3 minutes or less! The shorter our run back and forth is, the smoother the show will flow.
We can perform inside or outside, but cannot dance on gravel, asphalt or blacktop in our bare feet.
Fire coconut dance can be done inside!
