Children who participate in hula halau (school) receive one of the best introductions to Hawaiian language and culture. Kumu Mālia teaches the basic moves of both hula kahiko (ancient hula) and hula auana (modern hula), as well as oli (Hawaiian chanting). Keiki (children) also learn a true appreciation for nature and how to make flower lei. As students progress through the halau, they learn to use hula implements, such as the ipu (gourd drum), ‘ili‘ili (stones), and pu’ili bamboo sticks.

Hula showings for some classes: Still & Moving’s Birthday celebration Mar 14, 2020 and ‘May Day is Lei Day’ celebration May 3, 2020.
