About Me

My name is Jo Anne. You can call me Jo or Jojo. People say I don't "look or act like a Joanne," whatever that means. lol I love to dance -- any kind -- though Polynesian is my passion. Grew up in O.C., but moved to L.A. for work (court reporting for the State). I've danced professionally with Dance Attack (jazz) in Newport Beach for 13 years, then Tiare Productions (Polynesian) for a little over 11 years, and now I'm teaching Tahitian at UCLA. I may be up there in age, but you're only as old as you feel...or act. *;)My most recent adventures are becoming a Mary Kay Independent Beauty Consultant and starting my own small business, HULA KITTY ENTERPRISES. Check out the blogs for links to the webstore and news on where we'll be next!

LIFE'S AN AMAZING ADVENTURE, AND IT KEEPS GETTING BETTER!

My Interests

What interests me? Spreading the TRUE spirit of Aloha, not just the "fun at a luau" type.What do I dream of? A world of possibility. What possibility? The possibility of FULL self-expression, love and fulfillment. I participated in a program called the Landmark Forum at an early age. It impacted my life so tremendously that I couldn't imagine my life not having done the Forum. From it, I was able to clear the past out of my present (and therefore my future), so that I am left with a clear, open future...like a blank canvas, a future where I can create ANYTHING I want (full self-expression, love and fulfillment to name a few). If this sounds good to you, check out their website at www.landmarkeducation.com or ask me about it!Another transformational work of art is the book and movie "The Secret." This movie will empower you to achieve all that you want in life. Talk about dreams being fulfilled!

I'd like to meet:

I would like to have met my grandparents (all four). I'm told that I looked like my father's mother when I was a baby with no hair (not that grandma was bald lol).View All Friends | View Blog | View Pics | Add Comment

..

Music:

Anything with a good beat to it (preferably a toere). I particularly enjoy Islander music, R&B and pop/dance music, but have been known to enjoy punk, rap, alternative, rock, classical and, yes, even country. *:)

Movies:

Too many to list!

Television:

Eli Stone, Grey's Anatomy, Lisa Williams, Medium, any of the dance shows.

Books:

I always finish the ones I like. The others? Wanna buy a partially read book? I've got about 50 to choose from! Right now I'm really into the series of books titled "Tales of the Otori."

Heroes:

In no particular order: Leilani Lybbert (my childhood hula teacher), Abraham Lincoln, JFK, MLK, Gandhi, my brothers Jim & Bill for teaching me valuable lessons in life, my parents for letting me be me and always providing for us kids and bringing us up to be good adults, the teachers I've had throughout my education, and my friends. All through life I've learned lessons from each and don't know what I'd be today without having the privilege of "knowing" them all.A big "mahalo nui loa" to my hubby-bubby, the Pizza Man, for inspiring me to be the best I can and for bringing the warm, fuzzy contentment that I have with him in my life.

be careful what you wish for

They say "Be careful what you wish for, because it just might happen."  The other part to that (which you seldom hear) is when wishing for something, be very specific as to your wish.&n...
