Our Story

Founded in 2011 as Ora Nui Tahitian Dance Troupe, Polynesian sister duo, Roxie & Charlie, opened their 'Ori Tahiti studio to share and perpetuate the Tahitian culture with communities across the Pacific Northwest. In 2021, the sisters stepped down as the group's leaders and passed the torch to Roxie's daughter, Mika. With the change in leadership, also came a new name - Anavai O Te Ora, "the river of life." The mana continues its flow from ancestors to current leaders, and onward to future generations. Through our efforts, our cultures live on; nourishing our future by perpetuating our heritage.
