 You can hire 2 to 8 dancers.  Please email Saliima at saliimadance@gmail.com with details of what you would like at your event, and she will get back with you with several price options. Cost is based upon number of performers, number of performance pieces, location of your event, length of time at your event, and whether you want a 20 to 30 minute Hula dance lesson included.
