Louisa has said:
…I got my start, I grew up in the arts and my parents really supported the arts. I danced, I grew up dancing. I’m actually, we are a quarter Okinawan. My dad is half Japanese and that island over there dances. And also, [they’re] such nice people, like they’re just so jolly and happy – I feel like having that in my blood has really helped in this career… I don’t know how, but I know it has. That’s so funny.

Hi Lucas,
Do you mind finding something about Jorginho? Thx.
Not sure. She stated:
“I danced, I grew up dancing. I’m actually, we are a quarter Okinawan. My dad is half Japanese and that island over there dances. And also, their such nice people, like they’re just so jolly and happy – I feel like having that in my blood has really helped in this career. I just feel like having Okinawan Island blood in me has somehow helped in my career. I don’t know how, but I know it has. That’s so funny”.

So I believe her parents are Robert “Bob” H. Krause and Lida Jeanne (Wright). Her maternal grandparents are David Wright and Mary Lois.

Is she Japanese Okinawan or Ryukyuan Okinawan?
Robert’s middle name is Henry.
Paternal grandfather was Donald D. Krause.
Sorry, I made a mistake. Donald is probably not her grandfather.
My bad.
