🌺Our Mission
Preserving Culture. Empowering Youth. Uniting Community.
At TMA Siva Foundation (Taupou Ma LeAloali’i), our mission is to preserve and celebrate the rich heritage of Samoan culture through traditional dance, cultural education, and community engagement.
We believe that Siva Samoa is more than movement - it is a sacred expression of identity, ancestry, and pride. Through our programs, we create opportunities for youth and families to connect with their cultural roots while building confidence, discipline, and unity.
What We Stand For
🌀 Cultural Preservation
We teach traditional dances, songs, and customs passed down from our elders, ensuring the heart of Samoa lives on in future generations.
💛 Youth Empowerment
Our dance programs provide a safe and inspiring space where children and teens build leadership, self-esteem, and purpose through cultural pride.
🌺 Community Connection
We welcome people of all backgrounds to learn, share, and celebrate Samoan culture - fostering unity, diversity and inclusion.
Our Vision
To inspire a world where the beauty of Samoan dance and culture is honored, preserved, and passed down - one generation at a time.
🌴 Why It Matters
“When our youth dance, they carry the heartbeat of our ancestors.”
In a changing world, we strive to be a cultural anchor - reminding our community that tradition is a source of strength, not something of the past.

“E lele le toloa ae ma’au i le vai.”
“The teal flies far, but always returns to the water”
— Samoan Proverb (Unknown)
Meaning that no matter where we go in this world we will always have our culture and our family to return to. Understanding our roots and origins is very important.
