Featured Performers:
Anjanette Thomas has been captivated by the beauty of bellydance since 2008. She is blessed to study with many wonderful teachers, including Kalae Kaina. Anjanette is deeply honored and always inpsired to dance among the incredibly talented women that form Shakti Dance Movement.

Darrell the Imaginarium- International man of mystery Darrell Imaginarian has been a legend in his own mind, a mercurial Gemini with limited magical powers, mostly useful for amusing children. But what does he actually do? I bet you’d like to know.

Haunani Ramil began Bellydancing at the age of 20. In her early Bellydance years she studied Egyptian Cabaret from a local teacher (Shadiya). Not too long after she began taking classes from Kalae Kaina at a dance studio near her home. She went to see Shakti Dance Movement perform at a local hot spot and was totally captivated. There was fire, beautiful fluid bellydance, and strong women on the stage. She is now a dedicated member and student and has been dancing with Shakti Dance Movement for over 10 years now (and counting). Tribal Fusion Bellydance has been an array of life experiences for her–an expression of art, empowerment, health/wellness, the learner/the teacher/the performer, a spiritual practice, but most importantly the gift of sisterhood and feminine wisdom. She is so grateful to all who support her and this art form she loves so much.

Katie Shiroma discovered belly dance on the Big Island where she was raised. It was love at first dance class and has been on an endeavor to grow and improve herself as a dancer ever since. She hopes to bring joy to others through sharing dance. She is now a member of Shakti Dance Movement, under the direction of Kalae Kaina.

Shakti Dance Movement, Shakti Dance Movement is a Fusion Belly Dance company based in Honolulu, Hawaii. An all women’s dance collective, Shakti Dance Movement is proud to bring people together for classes, workshops, and great events. Shakti Dance Movement’s founder, artistic director, & lead choreographer, Kalae Kaina, has over 20 years of dance training under her belt. Through dedication to this beautiful art form, Shakti has grown into a very motivated group of women who wish to share their love of dance with others.

Sukra Dance Company is a sister troupe to Shakti Dance Movement, comprised of Kalae Kaina’s wonderful and dedicated students.

Wendy Caldwell has been exploring her passion for Middle Eastern dance for the past 8 years. She has had the privilege of dancing under the direction of Kalae Kaina for the last 5 years in Devi Dance Co and Shakti Dance Movement. Wendy looks forward to expanding her dance knowledge, grow as a dancer and artist, and share her love of dance with her community.
