TOLOA Polynesian Dance - DFW
Share
We welcome all who are dedicated & willing to learn the dances and music of our Polynesian ancestors Where does TOLOA come from? In Samoan, Toloa is a duck.
An old Samoan proverb states "E lele le toloa, ae ma'au i le vai." Translation: A duck will fly all over, but will always return to the water. Meaning: One would leave home, but will always return. For many of us, we are children of family members who left their home in the islands and crossed an ocean to an unknown country to look for a better life and opportunity for their children.

.. no studio? no problem 😉.. TOLOA's practice & potluck in the park
grateful the rain held off so we can practice, eat & enjoy eachother's company
3 months ago, these beautiful faces decided to step out of their comfort zone & try something new 🤎
in just a short amount of time, they learned dances from the beautiful islands of the South Pacific & worked tirelessly to represent Samoa with humility, love & respect at this year's
so proud & grateful for each of them and everything they bring to .. watching their growth, dedication and love for our culture has been such a blessing
forever grateful for the privilege to teach & represent our culture 🌺🏝️☀️
.. "We dedicate this performance to those who came before us, carried us forward, and laid the foundation we stand on today" ..
