Last month was the end of an era with Oakland's hula! After years of teaching Aloha Fit Hawaiian Dance Fitness and Senior's Hula, the weekly classes have come to an end! It has been an absolute honor to dance with all of these wonderful women every single week. All the dancing, swaying, sweating, laughing, chatting, and smiling we shared was all so amazing. π
Of course we had to go out with a celebration! After our classes ended, we all had a lovely lunch at East Garden Restaurant (their Singapore noodles and eggplant dishes were ridiculously delicious!). I wanted to share again a huge thank you to these wonderful groups for making me feel so appreciated and loved - each single one of you are so amazing and I am honored to have gotten to know and hula with each of you every week! Also, a huge shoutout to all the staff at Oakland's Recreation for being so lovely to work with over the past few years!! βΊοΈ
Disclaimer: My weekly adult hula classes have ended in Victoria due to the fact that my family and I have moved to the mainland! I am very excited for this move, which means amazing things for my family. As for hula, the classes WILL continue in workshop form every couple of months, along with online classes starting in the June! Don't fret, Victoria - I will make sure the hula continues!!
Mahalo to you all from the bottom of my heart. π

**And that's a wrap!** πβ¨
Last week marked the end of another fun-filled session of Preschool Fun Dance at SeaParc Recreation! This session was especially meaningful for me, as it was the last weekly session that I will personally be teaching at SeaParc.
It has truly been a pleasure dancing each week with the many wonderful Sooke families I've had the opportunity to meet over the years. Thank you for all the smiles, laughter, energy, and memories we've shared along the way! β€οΈ
But don't worry - the dancing isn't going anywhere! Aloha Fit has been growing, and we're excited to welcome some amazing new dance instructors to our team to carry on the fun weekly classes. Stay tuned as we introduce these wonderful teachers in the next little bit!
And that's not all! I'll also be hosting family dance party events every couple of months, featuring dancing, musical jam sessions, arts and crafts, and plenty of fun for the whole family. πΆπ¨π
Thank you again, Sooke, for your support over the years. It's been such a joy being part of your community, and I look forward to seeing what the future holds! ππ’π

Last weekend, I had the opportunity to teach a hula workshop with the Victoria Ballroom Dance Society www.vbds.org . What a great night with a wonderful group of amazing dancers - plus, quite possibly the biggest group I have taught so far! A big mahalo to VBDS for having me! βΊοΈπΊπ΄
