Dance Team

Dance Team

The dance team is an after school activity currently comprised of 93 dancers ranging from kindergarten to grade twelve.  The team is divided into five separate teams: Senior Team (grades 9-12), Junior Team (grades 5-10), Petite Junior Team (grades 3-6), Butterflies (Grades 1-3) and Lady Bugs (Grades K-3).

Under the direction of Keri Abe, Vickie Sakamaki and Cyrenne Okimura, the team serves as a wonderful opportunity for students that want to pursue a higher level of dance skills incorporating jazz technique, ballet, modern and lyrical dance and hip hop.

All dancers audition every year in May for a full-year commitment to the team.  The dance team performs at ‘Iolani football half time shows, band competitions, basketball half-time shows, the Aloha Week Parade, as well as participates in community services projects and competes both at local and national competitions.
