Booked with this phenomenal company only a few weeks before my event (thank goodness they still had the date available!!!). They came just a little before promised, the show was spectacular and all of my guests were blown away. If you need a fire dancer performancebook with Hawaii Hula Company!!! (Be sure to ask for a drummer as well)
I would recommend and will definitely use them again for my next event!
