With 3 years of performing under their belt Ohana Mau Loa has made a name for themselves as a Hula and Tahitian dance group in Hampton Roads.

Trained by one of the current dancers in the group, the founding members (3 sisters) decided the area would enjoy the beauty of the dance. And so, Ohana Mau Loa was born! Since then they have trained in Hawaii and in the local area with several instructors.

Aside from performing Ohana Mau Loa also offers classes at Riverview Gymnastics Center through Newport News Parks & Recreation www.nngov.com/parks-and-recreation . Everyone is encouraged to join!

 

 "Hula and Tahitian dance is an amazing workout. Hula strengthens the legs and teaches grace              and fluidity. Tahitian is a complete core workout. The upbeat music and rhythms get your heart rate up while you use all your stomach and hip muscles."  - Hannah Weymouth, member of Ohana Mau Loa

 

This summer you can find the ladies of Ohana Mau Loa performing for Beach Street USA Entertainment in VA Beach.  www.beachstreetusa.com

Their website is currently under construction. If you would like more information on classes or to book them for your event visit their facebook page!
