HULA CLASSES FOR ALL AGES

YOU ARE INVITED TO AN OPEN ENROLLMENT-HULA CLASS

We are Hālau o
Keikiali'i
based in San Francicso. Since 1994, it has
been our goal to educate the general public about the Hawaiian people, the
traditional customs, values and protocols.

Besides having regularly scheduled classes, we strive to help
perpetuate the rich culture of the Hawaiian people through stage productions
held for the general public throughout the year, including educational
workshops, performances and other cultural events.



Our primary focus is hula kahiko (ancient dance), which includes
oli (chant), mele (traditional songs), himeni (modern songs), nā mea hula
(arts, crafts, implements), lole hula (hula attire), ‘ōlelo (language), and
mo’olelo (stories).



Our group comprises of, both men and women, young and old, ranging
from 5 to 75 years of age. Our performing group holds theatre productions
highlighting hula in its many aspects.
Following tradition, we share
what we learn with different communities so that others too can benefit from a
better understanding and appreciation of the old ways of Hawai’i. It is within
the stories told in the mele (songs), with its morals and values, that people
can truly be enriched in their personal lives. We can all benefit from the
lessons taught. We hope to reach people far and wide, touching people who may
not be exposed to the Hawaiian culture and share with them the spirit of aloha.
