FOUNDER: LADY-JOE TANGATATEREKIA
Lady-Joe TangataTerekia, the visionary behind Hulanesian Fitness, combines her love for dance, music, and cultural heritage to create a transformative fitness experience. Her approach fuses Pacific Island traditions with soulful R&B rhythms, cultivating an atmosphere where participants not only achieve physical fitness but also connect deeply with their identity and community.
Raised in a rich cultural environment that bridges Māori and Cook Island heritages, Lady-Joe brings an authentic and heartfelt connection to Polynesian roots. For her, music is more than sound—it’s medicine, evoking emotions and healing the soul. Hulanesian Fitness reflects this philosophy, providing a “club-style” ambiance with diverse songs that energize, inspire, and connect participants to their whakapapa (genealogy).
Our Mission
Hulanesian welcomes individuals of all backgrounds to celebrate Polynesian heritage through dance, fitness, and connection. Whether beginner or advanced, discover soulful rhythms, authentic movements, and a supportive global community.
