To experience what it truly means, right and connect with the spirit of the islands is very achievable. Exploring a range of interactive classes plus hands-on workshops that the place provides, as a matter of fact there is an opportunity of gaining experiences. That will last way beyond your vacation. So too are some classes to be explored.

1. Discovering the Rhythm: Drumming Workshops

Rarotongan drumming, you know it’s rather a visceral experience. So you can just feel it in your bones. In some respects the intense drumming workshop, the feeling of ancient tradition comes to life. First, as a matter of fact, you start with learning the very of history, a bit about those different rhythmic patterns. After that, what comes next is actually getting to handle some various instruments. Right and getting your hands very much involved.

Imagine the sound filling up that air, right it sort of takes over. Just maybe, you’re banging on a *pate* drum for the first time, you know maybe the beat of this particular drum can take you back years to an ancient time. Also you could be tapping away using just your hands like how some people do and make amazing noise by doing that too. As I was saying that with others that join, it becomes like one really amazing beat that comes together in peace, so it is just one giant song shared between everyone.

The energy here in this type of group activity as a matter of fact it can just change anyone. This can give anyone the capability to see, feel, and connect. Like I was telling my friends earlier this type of group experience very you give new things. New connections and also fresh outlooks as a matter of fact which are so very crucial here when coming on vacations to various island resorts. When getting in touch with such cultures very deep into its spiritual existence, this just may be where true culture exchange happens .

2. The Art of ‘Ei Katu’: Flower Garland Making

More or less so than playing music you get in contact, in a way with art itself. But you’ll still have to use just your hands to come up with your next masterpiece of work to be remembered. The process itself can, you know take some practice or some know-how. Still there is still guidance which help to unleash your creative vision and produce that something from within. Very many people don’t understand but with flowers, as a matter of fact can produce peace with their aroma. So creating these traditional head garlands allows one to learn as a family to express emotions to produce a very long connection.

These lessons start at a bit of a low level you can start there when selecting plants right from gardens, it is like using what is natural to you, right just to find something. That you have to make an emotional connection, as a matter of fact like something just to connect to or something in between that will allow, in some respects you the vision of beauty to grow. Next so you’ll pick at the flowers, and using other plants. After all it very something when you come to see how something transforms. But very few, so often, find the true beauty. So you’re just not just taking plants here and putting them, after that altogether. You put what you really are and your emotions. Thus, the goal as I was saying it before allows this to make any tourist attraction that the island, of course, is already.

Once very can the art piece start talking too? Anyway for this head art to start connecting with very people, it is a little what a special piece would do when it is created as art. The people who make each *ei katu* give something. After that, the heart can feel some emotion and it would change those various interactions with just those people who would share something special in each of the pieces. As a matter of fact or anything special about the place where it was grown as a family or together too in the land where this whole flower creation began to form into the place where dreams actually can be visualized as beauty.

3. Island Flavors: Cooking Classes Centered on Local Cuisine

So taking time with food when traveling, in that case that means you want something pretty special, and what could be way more fulfilling? So too getting into the spirit of cooking to discover where something began is usually very special. These places like Rarotonga where food is pretty great. That, as a matter of fact means the class, of course, would start where the source starts at some island local market. Once a market visit of that kind comes to a conclusion. It almost gets the whole cooking class up and moving.

The smell, so too are some very vibrant tastes and colors all almost too intense at the same time from the variety of goods shown at those markets! The cooks can bring this life here from just this, it just shows more of that local experience here, and those things that will always bring someone back to that experience that one of them as memories of this wonderful island of all. The type of food cooked can give a sense of family. Basically the classes as a matter of fact could teach how *rukau* cooked in creamy coconut sauce soothes as a staple piece when served warm and delicious.

I told some friends recently how just being in this cooking class would be very beneficial in your vacation plans. Anyway for this, you see cooking is not some ordinary task that’s on someone’s chore list that it almost the opposite to that and in particular for culture reasons in how their way of life is for these types of island cultures, in this case cooking represents a lot to those there such as bringing those very memories that would stay way beyond. The very class ends too. I want to share these tips to my tourist friends that cooking something could actually connect everyone that surrounds an area. Like so as in doing so brings, a sort of new taste of how true culture is. Just in cooking ways where it gets brought on, and those values, in particular how families connect over special cooking to remember where they grew up and what’s happened back in their lifetime journeys. That these memories will continue too, but that they always continue.

4. The Legend of Story Telling: Traditional Storytelling Sessions

This culture from this beautiful island I’d thought so there should to be this session to get in touch, as a matter of fact and hear about a legend right from these ancestral people so here you can imagine a night to be remembered here by going back to their culture. The time spent learning all things local with people from there too can just keep on growing that emotional love to share how one lives so this storytelling part can allow those people that culture tradition can, in other words make everyone more and more invested that as everyone will listen very deeply what others are sharing by talking.

How a place shares tradition like this is so what important to share or to someone who is new or have been invested here in the same culture for awhile too, right with many more. So, what is pretty important you should be ready anyway when being here. Very you’ll sit at a low place next from that fire or campfire where the very storytelling would be what you expect, by getting those things. Too it is something as very good right from those cultures as stories are told in a group and family together. Pretty those lessons or stories from past family from that history as very told you or from some local group, but something comes alive to show their experience on an island.

So stories from generations. That get what shared to their people as traditions passed down a line, is almost to be so lucky as they come together by, anyway connecting how past meets with their everyday lives there so it’s almost that in order by. Getting such traditional teachings it gives it meaning and also brings that soul to all the island together! That stories will pass from various generations here too anyway very that means one culture still remains intact with stories from each to remember.

5. Dance of the Pacific: Polynesian Dance Classes

Getting physically involved to have cultural memories is actually some that I think makes culture way special so as one moves in each of these steps, a bit for one moment it allows them connect to a place’s spirit that way, in that case what this traditional place has from island cultures. Any Polynesian dancing very comes something you won’t usually see everywhere as so how, as a matter of fact that comes with it makes that place unique as those hips get moving the body language of a kind and some moves flow as such you see just love is so present on stage when this show occurs here.

I want to explain what very here, right to connect or go as some tourist that sees or is just wanting that type of show! Very with one to share so but just in those special traditional art where there’s no one like this is just what there for that one that knows culture! Very even as some of those in that culture! Too the women, and like when their very hip swings show them so as very dance happens it is, alright like what, as those songs and movement’s are the traditional ones too there for one that are, anyway shown on from here! First as there is a culture those woman’s can connect with that movement from that beat inside for it. Thus and like men’s or from those parts it too gets to the place as well and that very power so as they stomp on it.

Now this place has such special connections it can connect various generations by their move and music. This connection so, as each person remembers one past and one who, it is that love for where what are on goes and feels like. After all, so some traditional Polynesian styles that there will not be any part what makes that love like any! Just some here will leave everyone here wanting those stories back on the spot so after each part they show in each move!
