Kori Kori Tahiti Fete 2009

This weekend was full of events. It was my husband’s Bday and his family came  to Las Vegas from all over the country to support his talented and beautiful niece Raquel in Tahitian Dance Competition. I have never been to the event like that before and I think it was beautifully put together and gathered a lot of talented people. I wanted to share just a simple glance into the day (actually it was like half of the day since we have a 3 year old that takes naps:)) and maybe incline you to join us to this festival next year. I swear if you are tired of Cirque du Soleil shows and impersonators in this town, this would be a nice change. Lots of Pacific fun, food, LOVE and Aloha guaranteed…

Here I wanted to share just a glance into this year’s Tahitian Dance Competition that took place here in Las Vegas. It is officially called Kori Kori Tahiti Fete and it was only the second time it was held. THere were groups from all over the country and beyond: Mexico, Hawaii, Utah, California are only a sample of places where all the participants came from. It was great, and definitely different from what we are used to see here in Las Vegas, so I hope you guys spread the word and maybe next year it will be something bigger and lots more Las Vegans would come to see this spectacular show! See ya in 2010!
Love, Olga

I would have loved to have seen that! My university actually has a luau every year, and I did the ‘tahitian’ dance my senior year. . . I was so proud of dancing in a coconut bra ;) Maybe I’ll find an excuse to come out next year–sounds like fun!

Hee heee Jenny, I am guessing it is you and not Alex ;) . Absolutely, it wasn’t marketed too good, and I think there were only families of contestants in the auditorium, so I hope it will become a much bigger event next year! Hope to see ya next year :) ! or sooner…

Rad—love the slideshow!!
