Our philosophy:
Hula is good for mind, body, and spirit at all ages
"Hula is the language of the heart, and therefore the heartbeat of the Hawaiian people."
David Kalakaua, King of Hawaii, 1874 to 1891
Hula is an opportunity for us to give of ourselves
There is much to learn and to share

Our classes:
Are a safe and welcoming environment for all to learn and grow
We study our hulas to learn the deeper meaning... kaona. Hawaiian language, culture, history, and crafts are part of our learning experience.
We work hard and strive to do our best at each and every class
We are members of the greater Hawaiian community and share with our extended ohana in other halau

Our performances:
We make your event memorable by entertaining you with the beauty of the music and dance of Hawaii, Tahiti, and New Zealand
We share knowledge to deepen your appreciation of the performance and of our culture
We bring some FUN to your event!
