Poerava is issued from a training combine of ballet and figure skating, her perseverance in the tahitian dance makes her an exceptional dancer. Thanks to these different paths, Melina, Tahia, Maruina and Poerava have forged their own personality, each of them is characterized by an element: air, earth, water and fire. These four elements, these four personalities unite to forme, like Tahiti, another pearl; the Association ‘O Tahiti Nui. Directed by Tahia, this is where the talents complement to reviving the Tahitian culture in Paris. It’s obviously through the dance that the dancers will make you discover the culture. A dance developed from traditional knowledge of the Academy of FP, subtly altered by the creativity of artists.
