Tahitian Dancers

PCC Tahitian dancers perhaps the most decorated and colorful dancers at PCC nightshow. Not all dancers are Tahitian, mixture of Tahitian, Maori, Hawaiians, Samoans, Tongans, Micronesians, etc. A dancer who performs Tahitian dance must also dance Maori and Hawaiian dance, the same with Tongan dancers... they must dance Samoan and Fijian dances.
