A Fijian Dance Company Empowered to Inspire Generations to Come

Preserving Fijian Culture and Its Place on the World Stage

Learn More

"Fijian dance is not merely a form of artistic expression; it's a living embodiment of the rich cultural heritage of the Fijian people. At the VOU Dance Company, we recognize that keeping Fijian dance alive holds paramount importance for children and individuals of all ages, as it connects generations, preserves history, and fosters a sense of identity. Through our year-long Dance Research Program, a selected student researcher explores a chosen Fijian village, delving into the history of mekes and the role of the daunivucu, a traditional choreographer and chant composer. This initiative ensures the preservation of Fijian dance heritage, and the knowledge gained is shared with our performing arts company, enriching the cultural experience for peers and colleagues. Join us in celebrating Fiji's culture and its vibrant dance traditions."
