I think Taizha is such a great role model for our keiki! She was at the Keiki Hula Ho'ike filming and graciously took pictures with them. Needless to say, our keiki just loved her!
Such a beautiful young woman, inside and out. She has real wisdom and brings such joy to people she does not even know about. I so wish this lovely lady all the very best.
You think you’re not a good public speaker but I feel like you’re *the most* poised, genuine, and authentic speaker I’ve ever heard. Ever. Not exaggerating. It’s hard to combine poise and authenticity, but you’re doing it. So don’t sweat it, you’re doin alright!
I’ve seen comments on a video of her winning performance saying she’s not actually Hawaiian but just white…. But I read that her chant or song was about her genealogy…. So I’m going to go with those people are just haters. She’s beautiful and sharing her culture and love of her culture!
Like Maori nowadays, it doesn't matter if your part this or part that. You are Maori. So in saying that She is Hawaiian! because she thinks and breaths her culture as well, and that should be the only thing that matters
