Heiva I Utah
Ia Orana Tatou,
We are proud to host the 1st Annual Heiva I
Utah, a Tahitian Solo Dance Competition for all ages. This competition was
established to continue to perpetuate our Tahitian Culture 'Ori and Orero
through dancing and music.
The Heiva I Utah is dedicated to the Polynesian communities in Utah that have
formed a passion in Tahitian Dancing, which has proven to be a positive
alternative for our striving youth of Utah. Our goal intended is to
provide a means of expressing, promoting, and preserving our unique and valuable
customs, traditions, and heritage. The 1st Annual Heiva I Utah is a
friendly Dance Competition featuring the youth of our Utah communities, ages 3
and up. Our Heiva will offer learning experiences through Cultural
Workshops, Crafts, Food, and Social Interaction with other groups and
partcipants.
