wow , the mixture of nationalities that are dancing!!!! Couldn't tell that it's a Okinawan dance cause there's a variety of ethnicities dancing. Good for everyone to join in the fun.

so good. Are you based here? love the content your putting out.

[@PhotoLukeHawaii]

OKILIFE hi thank you! Yes we are based in Hawaii. Thank you for watching us and supporting us! I checked out your channel and that's pretty cool you're in Okinawa. I've never been there although we had a lot of friends and club members have gone to Okinawa for vacation or traditions dance or sanshin certification. We do taiko and bon dance in Hawaii mainly. Our Japanese bon dance club has performed in Fukushima Japan but, other than that all Hawaii. Thanks for watching from Okinawa! Aloha =)

[@okilife.official]

You guys absolutely have to come! You guys will be blown away by Okinawa's beauty! If you ever find yourself out here hit us up we'd love to show you some of the outer islands and tours of Okinawa!
