Teaching and Choreographing Aerial Dance for Oceania Dance Theater at the University of the South Pacific

Suva Fiji, May 2013

Mahalo to Peter Espiritu of Hawaii who is the newly appointed Director of Performing Arts in USP.  With Samadhi Hawaii's Artistic Director Andrea Torres, Jamie Nakama and myself, we held a 2 week Aerial Basics workshop with the resident dance company, Oceania Dance Theater for the university.  We also held lecture demonstrations, modern dance and capoeira class, and public performances.  Later, after my trip to New Zealand, I returned to Fiji as a choreographer to set a piece on the men of Oceania Dance Theater to be performed for Men Dancing Festival in July 2013 also at USP.
