This multicultural course specially invites French lecturer Terau Leau to teach the course "Adaptation to Foreign Marriage and Multicultural Sharing".
Terau Leau is a native of Tahitian, and he got married to a Taiwanese dancer Kumu Walis who also loves Tahitian dance. They both resided in Taiwan for many years. Kumu Walis is an aboriginal of the Seediq ethnic group of Taiwan and the lives of this couple represent multiculturalism.
Terau Leau shared his experience in adjusting himself to an international marriage and foreign cultures. He also told everyone how to understand and respect cultural differences.
The couple is currently committed to promoting Tahitian dance culture in Taiwan and is operating "Te Natira'a South Island Tahitian Art Studio". They hope that there will be opportunities to establish Tahitian dance associations in the future and hope more people will be exposed to this kind of dance.
