Kathleen Saito

Aloha and welcome to The Dancing Kat! 
I'm Kathleen Saito, an author, creator, and dancer on Maui. Here you'll find fairy tale retellings, fantasy adventures, mermaid stories, original music, BookToks, writing updates, and a little island magic along the way.
Join me as I bring stories to life through books like Once Upon a Moʻolelo: A Collection of Kaʻao and Sirena, share original soundtracks inspired by my characters, and celebrate the beauty, culture, and imagination.
Whether you're here for books, music, storytelling, or creative inspiration, I'm glad you're part of the journey.
