Hana Entertainment blew our minds! They put so much effort into a custom aerial fire performance for our private event in Tempe. Our guests were all ages and everyone was memorized. Totally professional, amazingly talented. Thank you so much Hana for making this retirement party an amazing capstone to his incredible career. None of us will ever forget this night!
We had Hana Entertainment dancers perform at our Annual 89th Gala Awards last week, and they were nothing short of exceptional!! They are extremely talented, kind, easy to work with, timely, accommodating, and overall wonderful. The fire dancing was the best entertainment we've ever had at our Gala, and all of our guests were over the moon! We cannot recommend Hana Entertainment enough - if you're considering their services, do yourself a favor and book ASAP!
Oh my goodness!!! The best entertainment ever!!!! And the performers were so real and personable. Rose is beautiful, talented and helped with our whole party! Robbie captured every age in our group and is so gifted! Can't wait for our company party this holiday to have them come again!
If you want something to attract, excite, bring in people, promote, entertain, pop or just want something completely different then a ordinary entertainment!!!!!???? Immediately get these guys booked. We booked the medium show and you'd never guess. We have a Grand show, these Entertainers are beyond words fabulous. You will end up calling me personally and thanking me for the recommendation. I am extremely critical of entertainment and I'll tell you this is the show of all shows. Hire them, you'll be blown beyond expectations. The best show for any and all ages, I can not believe we have not had these guys sooner. Thank you so much Hana Entertainment we absolutely appreciate tonight and will remember this for all futures. It'll be extremely hard to find anything more!!!!! All entertainers were beyond fantastic, professional and just can not find the words to say it. Thank you)
If I could, I would give 10 STARS! Joseph and his team did a phenomenal show for us! We hired them for entertainment for my Daughter's 30 Birthday and it was so much fun! All of the Dancers were incredibly skilled and entertaining. They really got the crowd participation and everyone loved it! From Hula to Fire Dancing was incredible!!! We felt like they were friends before the night was done and would recommend to anyone looking for entertainment for any event, you won't be disappointed!
We had hired performers for my grandma's 80th birthday who last minute cancelled. My mom happened to stumble across Hana Entertainment online and we are very lucky we did. They were absolutely amazing, from the jump the communication was excellent and they were so nice. The performance was spectacular, music was great and it was just absolutely incredible. Honestly, it could not have turned out any better. It was a surprise for my grandma and she loved it. Excellent performance, great people, and amazing vibes. If you are considering booking them, we all 100% recommend you do. Thank you Hana Entertainment for a wonderful experience.
The performers of Hana Entertainment do not disappoint. Joseph is the height of professionalism and safety, making working with him and our city-owned venue a breeze. Our audience was immediately captivated by his performance, and he held their attention throughout his performance. He brought the magic to our Lu'au themed corporate awards gala, and I have no regrets! Book this team today!
Hana fire show was fantastic! The show was mesmerizing to watch, and had everyone (adults and children alike) spellbound. They were a pleasure to deal with and were so accommodating- even finding special music to fit our Hanukkah party theme. Would highly recommend
Payton, my fire performer, was INCREDIBLE. She brought more that half a dozen props to use for her set for my mother's surprise birthday. She owned each one like a BOSS. The wind was really tricky that night, but Payton never lost her flow. Even before the event, she took the time to discuss every detail of her routine with me, right down to hair and wardrobe. Extremely professional - same for Rose, who was my booking contact. She was very communicative and quick to respond. I highly recommend Hana Entertainment. You won't be disappointed.
They got the family participating and enjoying the family reunion. It cheered everyone up as our grandma was really sick and ended up going to the hospital while the reunion was going on.
We hired them for fire performers, contortionists, tarot card readers, and caricature artists. Everyone was fantastic and our crowd was impressed by the talent! Thank you for helping make our event a success!
We used Hana for a work function and they did fantastic. Really professional and clear communication the whole time and the show they put on was amazing. Highly recommend
Joseph rocked the house! If you want an Entertainer that engages the crowd and makes the event exciting get Joseph to perform. He went above and beyond and we really appreciate him and the team!!!!!!
Joseph and his crew were absolutely incredible!!! Their performance far exceeded our expectations. They brought great energy in this one of a kind entertainment! Super grateful we found them.
The whole Hana Entertainment family danced and performed for our family birthday party and did a fabulous job! We were able to do a custom 45 minute show that was interactive and fun for everyone! Thank you for helping to make our party memorable!
Joseph and his team provided a wonderful performance for our family get together. Everyone loved the fire dancing, and the girls had lots of fun learning to hula dance. I would engage Hana Entertainment again anytime!
We had the family come to our beach themed wedding party. It rained so they were gracious enough to wait for it to pass before they were able to perform. Very fun to watch and we got some lessons on how to do the hula and haka. Very entertaining. The whole family was great!
We booked Hana Studio for a church Christmas Luau. They called me back right away from an email enquiry and the rest was a breeze. So professional, easy, and fun to work with. The show was spectacular and beautiful. The audience participation was just what we needed for our crowd of about 200! The fire dancing was out of this world and the crowd was in awe. Because of this show our party will go down in history. Thanks again Hana Studio!!!! I'm looking forward to a future date where we can use them again. Thanks Joseph for being so awesome and easy to work with!
We recently had a Luau party for our senior citizens and the Hana studio team was amazingly good! The dancers were very professional and very fun performers. Our senior residents had so much fun and they even participated in the hula dance contest! Joseph was very friendly with our residents and his fire spinning numbers were perfect! Great experience and I highly recommend Hana Studio for your party!
We had a small pool party planned for our members of our facility. It happened to storm the day of our party, but we moved forward with the Hana experience! Joseph was great working with us and keeping the vibe positive. Everyone had a blast & when it came time for the fire show, the rain had cleared up so we went outside. Everyone was "wowed"!!! The little kids were screaming with excitement & dancing along to the music with the biggest smiles. We loved having Hana to our facility & our party and hope to be able to do it again next year!
We are so impressed by Hana Studio! They catered our Business After Hours and performed dancing routines, including fire dancing. The crowd loved it! Highly recommended!
Hana Entertainment was part of our Summer Kick-off Luau at University Place. They did a fire dance performance and did a great job. The crowd loved it. It was very nice that they were very easy to work with. I would highly recommend them.
Just a great addition to my daughter's 8th birthday party. Very professional and great with kids. I highly recommend Hana Studios!!!
Hana Studio came to our retirement home in Montana and put on a fabulous show, very kind and loving people, Cant wait to have them back next year.
Absolutely amazing experience with Joseph and wonderful family!!! :)
Easy company to work with and excellent production they put together for us.
Performance completely exceeded all expectations! Highly recommend!
We had a outdoor neighbor hood party this weekend and it was a bit rainy, but it actually added to the performance, very entertaining and beautiful , all the guests were mesmerized by the talent and beauty and they have been commenting on it ever since. Hana Entertainment were prompt, very professional and exceptionally talented. Everyone wanted to know if we would do this again next year as it was pure entertainment from 18 months to 90 yrs who were in attendance. Thank you so much!!!
We were so pleased with Hana Entertainment. We had a small event of only 50 people and set up having Joseph and his family come and entertain us. The performance was on a more intimate up close and personal level. I would happily recommend using them for most any event. Also Joseph was able to refer us to a caterer, Charlene, who made some delicious food for us. I would recommend her as well. Doing both at the same time made things easy for somebody like me who is not accustomed to planning events. Thanks Joseph! Alan.
Either shave the hair on the back of your neck or get ready to have stand on end. The level of energy that these dancers bring to the stage is crazy awesome! 5 star fro sure!
I would like to give a big Mahalo to Hana Studio for their performance at our VIP Luau at Lakeside Casino one of our properties in Pahrump, NV. We had two Fire Knife Dancers, Joseph and Elisa that drove down from Utah, they were awesome!! Joseph and Elisa were so proffesional and a joy to work with. They even jumped in and assisted the Lei Greeters. Their performance was stellar and made me home sick for the Islands. I would give them 10 stars if they were available and highly recommend Joseph and his studio to anyone looking for that true Aloha!!! We will be hiring them again for next year's event!
This is my home away from home. I started off with Samoan fire knife with an amazing instructor and now a good friend. I was always kind of like "one of the guys" because I am the first female fire knife they had. Now I'm getting into hula, Tahitian, poi, and even ukulele. A few years ago this is not a place I thought I would ever end up. But I am so glad to have found it. It has helped me become more discipline with practice and opened my eyes to another culture that I love and want to share. I love my hana ohana.
Before I became staff at Hana I saw how special this place was. There is an Aloha spirit that swallows up everyone who walks through the doors. I haven't felt more at home at a dance studio in many, many years. There is no judgement...anyone is welcome to spin fire, dance Tahitian or perform aerial if they want! I love how welcoming everyone is and I am greeted with big smiles every time I enter the studio. I absolutely love being part of this Ohana family <3
Joesph and Tera are amazing to work with. Very caring about their studio and the experience given. Thank you guys for being so great!
I have been involved with Hana Studio on newmerous different occasions. They are always great to work with, professional and you can tell that they absolutely love sharing their culture and craft. I see it on their faces. I loved working with such a happy positive group of people. They truly made me feel like part of their ohana. I love how in the Polynesian culture people are so loving and always consider you to be family the first time you meet. That is true ohana spirit. Mahalo Hana Studio for being such good examples of true ohana spirit.
The place has aloha. Joseph is impressive as a performer and the students are having fun while they explore various types of movement dance forms. I enjoyed the xmas luau, the little one doing the fire dance was quite exciting to watch. The lady in lace performed an amazing aerial routine at “high” rhythm the whole way through. The kids too were fun to watch how much they push themselves to excel, performance were way impressive for their age. I didn’t care much for the santa lyra performance, and can see why for the ohana family environment it may have thought it too “naughty”... any hoot, mahalo nui loa for fun evening and maybe I will sign up for a class to learn the new zealand hakka! Ha
I have hired this company twice and they are off the charts amazing!! They were punctual, easy to work with, impressive all around. One time was for a birthday party with friends, family, and neighbors. The other time was as a speaker sponsors and vendor appreciation night at my home a few years ago. Highly recommend. Everyone loved it and they were a huge hit!!
I loved everything about Hana Studio from start to finish, Joseph was a pleasure to work with, he helped me figure out what would suit our event the best, and he completely hit the mark! The dancing was stunning, and Joseph left our guest breathless with his fire dance! I would strongly recommend Hana Studio for your next event. We can't wait for an excuse to use them again!
Hana Studios is the best dance group I have ever had the opportunity of experiencing. The atmosphere is positive and fun, the staff are uber-friendly, and Joseph, the head-honcho, is extremely professional yet fun, rounding out Hana Studios as a must contact for any luau like events! He made sure everything was exactly how it needed to be, and the group delivered a presentation that rivaled the Polynesian Cultural Center!!! I will MOST DEFINITELY be using them in the future and highly recommend them for anyone looking for a mind-blowing experience!
Awesome entertainment for our division summer social luncheon! Everyone loved the beautiful dancing by the women and the excitement of the fire sword dancing. Highly recommend them for events!
I wish I could give 10 stars!!! Thank you so much for the amazing show for our Charlotte! Moana was amazing with the kids and it was awesome watching her keep 20+ kids engaged the whole time. The fire dancing was PHENOMENAL! Our guests couldn't stop raving about the show. Thank you for your energy and kindness!
I can't say enough about this amazing group. I hired them for an office party and their performance was outstanding. My guest have been asking about them and talking about their performance for a week now. Due to limited space and restrictions we could not do a show with fire and drums but next time I'm going to have it all. Thank you so much Joseph for your entertainment
This company helped us with our Holiday Party at Wasatch Peak Family Practice this year and it turned out really nice! The food was wonderful as was the entertainment! Thank you for helping us start our holiday off right!
This studio put in an energized 2 hour performance for our closing ceremony! Best booking in the last five years of International Week at Rocky Mountain College - Billings, MT!!!
We wanted to add something a little extra to my daughters 5th birthday party and having a fire dancer was the answer. Joseph was great with the kids and everyone was amazed with the performance. I would definitely recommend booking them for your next event.
Such an entertaining show! The humor and skill they have is unbelievable! 10/10
Hana studio is full of “people persons”. They are entertaining, get the crowd involved, and share the history of their culture in such a fun and inviting way. They are a joy to witness, and leave a smile on every face.
Love watching them being great cultural aspects to our small Montana collge! Hope to watch all of them preform again soon!!
The best of Polynesian culture brought to you in a personal way.
This was an amazing show and if you missed it, this video is great for you to get a glance. This song Joseph Cancilla had really connected with and I'm so glad that I was able to put it in my music collection because it's honestly been like my favorite song ever since that show! Rose Wild she is so wildly creative and she wrote this show and the narrative and the writing created an experience so powerful you can't even put it into words.
Let's go, anything Joseph Cancilla is part of is always beyond amazing and a show to remember.... Let's go and have so much fun!!
