Our purpose is to honor and convey the cultural significance of the dances of Hawai‘i, Tahiti, and New Zealand. We welcome all who share a sincere respect for Hawaiian, Tahitian, and New Zealand cultures. As our Hālau grows, we remain dedicated to deepening our knowledge, honoring these traditions with integrity, and inspiring future generations of dancers to carry them forward with respect and understanding. http://www.puahis.com/home daily 0.75 2026-09-07 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/56ef495e1bbee0815d5862d3/1788446678141-MJO5Z4KIBS5WM7QNTD5L/Puahi%27s-Ho%27ike+2026-75107740156.jpg Home https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/56ef495e1bbee0815d5862d3/1788446676936-93V6CUF5MMJOSL37KCEJ/Puahi%27s-Ho%27ike+2026-75107740137.jpg Home https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/56ef495e1bbee0815d5862d3/1788446677010-D1IX80OWS9UTO507H7YH/Puahi%27s-Ho%27ike+2026-75107740147.jpg Home https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/56ef495e1bbee0815d5862d3/1788446678100-6QK2XGLHFZVQAOZI3N0C/Puahi%27s-Ho%27ike+2026-75107740149.jpg Home https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/56ef495e1bbee0815d5862d3/1788446679245-5R8OYIGXH1ENEQDC5LO7/Puahi%27s-Ho%27ike+2026-75107740158.jpg Home https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/56ef495e1bbee0815d5862d3/1788446819314-0OEFUR9NAA0BZC7B0444/Puahi%27s-Ho%27ike+2026-75107740133.jpg Home https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/56ef495e1bbee0815d5862d3/1788446820633-Y7189SD2FZZAF26I6KF9/Puahi%27s-Ho%27ike+2026-75107740138.jpg Home https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/56ef495e1bbee0815d5862d3/1788446820696-BFFAZY8AQ7SSLOY5UTC2/Puahi%27s-Ho%27ike+2026-75107740141.jpg Home https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/56ef495e1bbee0815d5862d3/1788446821779-YRPV8GM5UNCXOPUV08US/Puahi%27s-Ho%27ike+2026-75107740145.jpg Home https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/56ef495e1bbee0815d5862d3/dfd31e97-e9d3-42e0-b631-486a9730f738/Puahi%27s-Ho%27ike+2026-74870934377.jpg Home https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/56ef495e1bbee0815d5862d3/11afd381-3ec0-4d22-b5da-f772bf1005ae/Recital+2019-40.JPG Home https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/56ef495e1bbee0815d5862d3/3e179d92-3f5b-49bc-81a3-6d0ff4d5065a/BandPhoto_68057681457.jpg Home http://www.puahis.com/contact daily 0.75 2026-09-04 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/56ef495e1bbee0815d5862d3/1548827898768-MGRFLFXHU4BOB4YQVWEO/19079.jpg Contact Us http://www.puahis.com/donations daily 0.75 2026-09-07 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/56ef495e1bbee0815d5862d3/77c6a6bc-727d-4f19-b785-6f3f389d6cc6/69994639_10218236222590085_5717845654282174464_o.jpg Fundraising - Supporting Puahi’s Aloha, and mahalo for supporting Puahi’s Polynesian Dance Company. Through dance, language, and history, we provide students with a respectful and meaningful foundation in Hawaiian, Tahitian, and New Zealand cultures. The costs of competition, including costumes, fresh adornments, travel, training, and lodging—are substantial. As a nonprofit organization, we rely on the generosity of our community and donors to help make these opportunities possible. Maintaining a dedicated studio is essential to providing a safe, consistent space for instruction, rehearsals, and cultural education; however, rent, utilities, insurance, equipment, maintenance, and other operating expenses are substantial. As a not-for-profit organization, we depend on charitable contributions to help sustain the studio and ensure that our programs remain accessible to the dancers and families we serve. We invite you to support our ongoing work in cultural preservation, education, and community enrichment through a meaningful contribution.
