Hula-Hawai'i's Dance for Beginners

We celebrate the cultural dances of Hawai`i, the furthest north of all the Polynesian Islands in the Pacific. Come share in this class of both traditional and modern Hula-Hawaiian Dance for both men & women. Hula is the language of the heart and therefore the heartbeat of the Hawaiian people. These are the words of our last King Kawika Kalākaua who returned hula into the public eye after being banished by missionaries for some 50+ years (1820-1870). This fun gathering will include basics of: hula, language, history, geography, changing, singing and more! This class will be taught by Kumu Kawika Keikiali`i Alfi che (Hula Master) of Hāalau o Keikiali`i & Kaululehua Hawaiian Cultural Center Napa & San Francisco.
