What makes this event different from the Hawaii Salsa & Bachata Congress in February and other events in Hawaii?  The Alohana event will integrate more Hawaiian and local cultural elements with the Latin dance elements of a salsa and bachata congress than the other events in Hawaii. The main organizer, Grant, is the only large-scale salsa/bachata event coordinator of Hawaiian descent. Furthermore, Alohana will not only feature both bachata and salsa, we will also include ballroom dancing and other styles of dance.  Now that we have three full size ballrooms we will be able to schedule more classes and bootcamps.
