This is a performance group called Hanayakara. They performed at Honolulu's Kapiolani Park and were a huge hit. Their act includes many aspects of Okinawan culture and is a must see if you ever get a chance to see them in person. My dream would be to one day see them come and perform in the Chicagoland area for all of the landlocked uchinanchu people here. I hope you enjoy the video!
This is a taiko performance that took place in my back yard in 2007. My friend Hisako who is closest to the camera was just a beginner that day but she did a fine job with the routines.
This is a video of the Naha Daiko Group performing at the 25th annual okinawa Festival in September of 2007. The group came from Okinawa to perform their powerful style of Okinawan Eisa.
