Mikaele Oloa
(1) The excellence achieved throughout this person was becoming the 2005 and 2006 World Fire Knife Dance Champion in Laie, HI. He is one of the youngest competitors to have ever won this title and has the capabilities to dance with up to four fire knives, which is incredible amazing!
(2) This excellence was achieved by beginning to dance at a very young age. This took lots of practice and dedication to obtain his titles. Through all this it probably took getting hurt here and there but it was for the love of his culture.
(3) Technology could have impacted this arete experience by announcing probably on air on radios and on social media so people in his community can be aware of his accomplishments. Technology could be a great source of spreading the word of someone like him that has astonishing skills.
(5) Reflection: I think this is a great example of persistent person who is willing to risk possibly his life through this skill. It also hows his pride for his culture and how he is also willing to do anything to keep it. From this arete experience I had to chance to obtain the idea that even skills like this can bring big accomplishments in your life. With practice and dedication anything is possible.
