We have received so many warm notes from the garden club members, and they all mention how much they enjoyed seeing you dance and learning about the Hawaiian culture. I'm sure George and I are not the only ones who now feel really eager to travel to the Hawaiian Islands and experience all the smells, the tastes, and the beauty of the culture and land there. Thanks you again for giving us your warmth, beauty and your culture. Dottie Stone, Mountain Valley Garden Club, West Hartford, CT "...your performance exceeded my expectations...Once again thank you for making it an unforgettable night. The wedding was my daughters dream come true everything thing turned out beautiful and the bride n groom and guests were very happy n never stopped dancing. Best wishes." - Samira Saleh, Clifton, NJ "It is my pleasure to write this letter of recommendation on the outstanding quality of the performances by Teri "Tiare Kahana" Bourget and her dance troupe. Her performance of Polynesian dances on August 16, 2009 at the annual Dragon Boat Races and Asian Festival in downtown Hartford delighted thousands of attendees over the course of the 2-day event, young and old. Besides the entertainment aspect of her performances, [Tiare's] objective is to educate audiences about Hawaiian & Polynesian culture as well as promote the Aloha Spirit (expression of unconditional love and respect for all). She does this skillfully through interactive participation of the audience, engaging small children (age 2 and up) and adults in singing, dancing and playing rhythmic dance implements. Right from the start, she engages the audience in learning a few Hawaiian words and phrases. She then begins to educate/entertain the audience by explaining how each dance movement expresses a human quality. The native costumes and graceful dances make for a truly artistic presentation as well as a wonderful learning experience for all." - George Jeong, Asian Pacific American Coalition of CT, Treasurer ******************************************************************************************************** CLIENTS & VENUES (to name a few) Asian Pacific American Coalition Aqua Turf Club Avon Country Club Branford Yacht Club Central CT State University CT Library Consortium CT Parks & Recreation CT Science Center Country Club of Farmington Eastern CT State University Ernst & Young Fairfield Beach Club Gary Goldberg Financial Glastonbury Hills Country Club Hartford Riverfront Dragon Boat Festival Hawk's Landing Country Club Hula Hanks Hyannisport Club Kona Brewing Konika-Minolta L & L Hawaiian BBQ Madison Beach Club Make A Wish Foundation Maui Jim Sunglasses Mohegan Sun Casinos North Jersey Country Club Norwalk Merritt 7 Racebrook Country Club Red Hook Brewing Company Roger Williams University Shore and Country Club Shuttle Meadow Country Club Six Flags New England Inn at Mystic TPC River Highlands Union College University of New Haven UCONN Storrs US Coast Guard Academy WFSB Channel 3 Better CT WFSB Channel 3 Joy for the Kids Wianno Club Winding Trails WNBA CT Sun WTNH Channel 8 CT Style

Wedding Cocktail HourReviewed on June 24, 2012From Seymour, CT

Tiare and "Kahana Hula" exceeded our expectations and our guest were enraptured with their beauty and grace. Tiare fulfilled all of my special request and reorganized her schedule in-order to perform "The Hawaiian Wedding Dance" for my husband and myself. It took my breath away and brought me to tears. I would highly recommend that you employ their services during any special event. Thank you, The Newly Married Mrs. Dorine E. Norko.

CelebrationReviewed on October 26, 2012From New Britain, CT

Tiare Kahana was an absolute delight at our Reception. Our guests are still talking about how great the entertainment was. She made our Reception a memorable event that will not soon be forgotten. We had an age range of 30's to 80's and Tiare had everyone participating. Her enthusiasm and sparkling personality is contagious. The stories she told about the Hula's were very interesting and; she was sweet and stayed to answer questions our guests had. Yes, there is no question about it... Tiare gets a 5+ from me. I would not hesitate to hire Tiare for another event in the future. A HUGE THANK YOU TIARE !!!!!!! Aloha!

Corporate FunctionReviewed on July 2, 2013From Armonk, NY

The whole company was easy to work with and they put on an amazing show. Costume changes, live musicians, a drummer and a fire dance. It exceeded our expectations in all ways. They were very flexible with the site where they would dance and when we had to move the event inside due to weather, they did not skip a beat, performed wonderfully and smiled the whole time. You will not regret engaging them for an event!!!
