I have another one from this evening's class: per Auntie Kahanoa, Leilani passed her ha'awina for Mei a week early for everything but the 'olelo no'eau (which she will try again in 2 weeks) - as we are unable to go to class next week. I'll give you an update when she passes her 'olelo no'eau. Mahalo nui loa!

Aloha mai kākou! Please remember the instructions were that Ha’awina not be posted to this group until checked by me first for completion. I then give you the okay to post to this group for auntie’s deeper review. If you don’t receive a heart react from me, it means you skipped this step of instruction. (Instructions were posted to ALL papa groups as well as this group) Hoʻokahi wale nō leo, ua lawa: One voice is enough; when one speaks, everyone should be listening. Only one reminder is necessary. It should only need to be said once.
Greetings to us all!

To stay on track with our testing schedule, in lieu of the usual lā hō’ike protocol of turning in Ha’awina to me for review (and stickers!) in person at hālau before posting to telegram for Auntie Kahānoa’s more in-depth reading, this time around…. 1) Please private message photo of your Ha’awina to me FIRST. 2) I will give you an emoji react or comment (hope the ⭐️ emoji will suffice for now!) to let you know I’ve looked it over 3) THEN post your Ha’awina photo to THIS group! (Auntie will know it has been reviewed by me when posted here!) ***Remember to try to keep multiple photos to ONE post! ****Remember to include your NAME and MONTH in your post! Have a blessed Easter Sunday!
Good morning everyone!

MAHALO NUI IĀ ‘OUKOU A PAU! (Please see wonderful example above for LULU posted but mom, Stephanie. Her ha’awina was reviewed and checked off by me prior to their planned absence this upcoming Saturday.)

'ŌLAPA main chapter text (7 scanned pages) YES, VERY WORTH THE TIME TO READ! LOTS OF TAKEAWAYS FOR YOU ALL.
'DANCER main chapter text (7 scanned pages) YES, VERY WORTH THE TIME TO READ! LOTS OF TAKEAWAYS FOR YOU ALL.
AS YOU PREPARE TO MAKE YOUR LEI EACH WEEK... as is required by Kumu Lei in her adult papa hula. Here is a good read on it's importance in hula, traditional protocol and Hawaiian thinking as a haumana training to become an 'ōlapa - a dancer. "When you are a hula dancer...you are actually dressing yourself as an offering." Again, I hope you see the traditional Hawaiian ways and thinking that are incorporated into your Hawaiian hālau hula education.

There are two types of foot movements: flat foot style and the pointed toe style. Pedaling heels up and down make the hips sway. “Pali ke kua, mahina ke alo” (“Back as straight as a cliff, face as radiant as the moon.”). Too many kumu try to achieve a uniform precision that was never a part of hula training in former times. “The `drill team’ objection of too much precision”: Set lips and frozen in place smiles are no more appreciated than a plastic lei. 12 - HULA STEPS Ai Ha’a, `ami, `ami kāhela, `ami kūkū, hela, kāholo, kāholo huki, kāholo ki’i `uwehe, kalākaua, ka’o, kewalina, ki’i (wāwae ki’i), ku’i, lele `uwehe, `ōniu, pe’elua, `uwehe, wa’i. 13 - HULA IMPLEMENTS ipu and ipu heke, kā`eke`eke, kāla`au, `ili`ili, pahu hula, papa hehi, pū`ili, pūniu, `ulī`ulī. 14 - HULA MUSIC King Kalālakaua learned to play the `ukulele. The “steel” guitar was invented by a young Hawaiian boy from rural Lā`ie. Hula instruments were banjos, mandolins, guitars and `ukuleles. 15 - COSTUMES For kahiko, men wore kapa and ti leaf skirts, pili grass or trimmed lauhala leaves, or olonā. Women wear sleeveless pā`u or ti leaf skirts with cotton or lauhala matting tops. Tattoos showed `aumakua (family guardians) on waist to ankle, torso or half of one’s face. 16 - ADORNMENTS Hula adornments were lei po`o, ti leaf headband, kukui leaves, lei haku, or lei hulu (feather lei). Many plants or flowers are considered the kinolau (bodily form) of certain gods or goddesses and colors have meaning for the hula. 17 - TO COMPETE OR NOT? On a scale of 1 to 5, hula competitions are judged by Hawaiian language performance, costume, adornments, dance steps, and dance. 18 - ORAL HISTORIES OF CONTEMPORARY HULA (Focus on Frank Kawaikapuokalani Hewett) He is a kumu hula and haku mele. Aunty Emma DeFries called him “Kawaikapuokalani”, Aunty Edith Kanaka`ole called him “Waikini Kolohe”, Aunty `Iolani called him “Ku`ulei Awapuhi”, Aunty Lani Kalama called him “Brother”. His mele, “Ka Pilina” might be “new” but the values and the connections have always been there from someone who took him under their wing to kōkua and mālama him. “The deeper the roots; the stronger the tree.” 19 - THE FUTURE OF HULA In Hawai’i, there is and must always be a concern for the spiritual values of hula. The old styles of dance were the roots and trunk of the hula tree. Hula must be a whole tree, carefully tended by kumu, and nourished by a dedicated haumāna. 20 - BASIC HULA VOCABULARY The basic hula vocabulary tells us about all of the deep Hawaiian meanings. I liked how the book talked about the past, present and future of Hawaii and hula. The past talked about how the English people made them only dance `auana style and Hawaiians ancient hula is kahiko; the present talked about Kumu Hula Frank Kawaikapuokalani Hewett, he was a songwriter, haku mele; and the future talked about us younglings like me.
The five “F” values of Polynesia are: 1) Faith - Faith - Hula is performed as a gift, as something to be given away; 2) Family - Family - Hula was the medium, and the values and history of the family were the message; 3) Food - Food - on the Polynesian island, it was kind to give food, food, to anyone at your door because food was very important in Polynesians and Hawaiians; 4) Fun - Fun - when the Polynesians and Hawaiians had a hard time, it was happiness and joy, fun that got them into a good situation; and 5) Feelings - Feelings - 10 - THE PHYSICAL SUMMARY OF A DANCER Axis One keeps the back straight; Axis Two keeps the shoulders back and chest forward; Axis Three is circle hip rotation; Axis Four is moving the feet up and down on the balls of the feet. 11 - MOVEMENTS IN HULA Everything in hula is linked to the distant past.

From Leilani: KA INOA O HAUMĀNA: KA KŪLANA: 1 - INTRODUCTION The Introduction talks about what Kumu means and that hula is something that Hawaii gave to the world. And it talks about hula being the main source of Hawaii. 2 - LEARNING HULA "HAWAIIAN STYLE" When I read the Kumu Hula Roots & Branches book, the first chapter told me about hula and the chapter told me how the Hawaiians did hula so I know what I’m supposed to be doing so that I can represent Hawaii while I dance. 3 - THE IMPORTANCE OF DANCING Chapter 3 tells me how important it is to dance and how it can heal you. Also, you can dance in ancient or modern style but you must master the spiritual attitudes which are hanohano (pride), ha’aha’a (humility), pa’ahana (willingness to work hard), hō’ihi (respect) and āpo’okela (excellence). 4 - FROM MYTHS TO THE PRESENT This chapter told me that dancing and chanting were one in ancient Hawaii. Even though some chants can be really old, no one knows how or when hula came to the islands of Hawaii. Some people say that Hi’iaka is the goddess of hula. Hula has been around since the year 1000. The first hula dancers were warrior men (nā koa). Hula master and the `ōlohe (martial arts master) were work cousins. Hawaiian gods were like Greek gods. Most chants end with “He inoa no Hi’iaka i ka poli o Pele”. In less than 60 years, King Kamehameha the Great died, and the Hawaiian people and culture nearly died by disease and rejection from immigrants like Captain James Cook. King Kalākaua and Queen Lili’uokalani rescued hula. Iolani Palace was the first government executive building in the world to have a telephone system, electrical lighting, indoor plumbing and flush toilets. Then America took Hawaii and turned it into a state and banned the Hawaiian language and culture from schools and the public. Kahiko hula survived thru kāhuna and Lalani Village in Waikiki, Ulu Mau Village and the Polynesian Cultural Center helped create interest in “real” hula (hula kahiko). 5 - HULA KAHIKO AND HULA 'AUANA TODAY Hula kahiko is to relay the original message. The messages, powers, and energies must be understood and used appropriately, otherwise a history is mistold and a lesson goes unlearned. Serious students always learn kahiko first since kahiko teaches what is correct, or pono. `Auana can be danced by very skilled hula dancers or by amateurs. 6 - HULA PROTOCOL AND PRACTICES To not pray (pule) was to be ungrateful and arrogant. Halau pule is typically oli kāhea“Kūniki kamauna,” or “Tall stands the mountain, ceited to Pele’s sister, Hi’iaka, on her epic journey to Kaua’i. Ho’oponopono is a traditional form of problem solving and forgiveness by an entire group that insures that no ill-will exits to impair the family feeling of those who work together. 7 - LEVELS OF HULA, FROM BEGINNER TO EXPERT In a hālau hula, there are the many levels: someone who is curious, some kids might do hula but might be a little too busy to be more than an average student; some kids want to be a great hula dancer; and then some students become an alaka’i (kumu-in-training); some students become a soloist called an `ōlapa; some older students become the ho’opa’a (senior chanter); some students, have a `ūniki and puka (graduate) from hula and become kumu hula; and only a dozen kāhuna kumu hula are master of master hula teachers in the world. “`Ono ka hua o ke kumu hua maika’i.” 8 - INVESTMENT IN HULA A hula dancer pays for lessons, clothes, implements, costumes, flowers, adornments. Sometimes they get an education grant. 9 - THE FIVE "F" VALUES OF POLYNESIA

KA INOA O HAUMĀNA: Kūpono Floresca KE KŪLANA: LAU KUKUI 1 - INTRODUCTION: While no one person or island can claim "ownership" of hula or claim to be the sole source of knowledge, teachers and performers do agree that HULA is a combination of skill, commitment, love and teamwork. 2 - LEARNING HULA "HAWAIIAN STYLE": While we recognize that HULA is uniquely Hawaiian, it does not mean that it has to be performed only in Hawai'i or only by Hawaiians---as long as we (performers and audience) understand the spiritual basis and protocols of HULA, we will not overlook and miss its significance and essence. 3 - THE IMPORTANCE OF DANCING: HULA is a powerful way to communicate--- it informs, entertains, heals and inspires using the human body as a vessel of dynamic storytelling and historical preservation. 4 - FROM MYTHS TO THE PRESENT: HULA is divided into two styles- KAHIKO (ancient) and 'AUANA (modern). Hula was originally danced ONLY by men. 5 - HULA KAHIKO AND HULA 'AUANA TODAY: For Hula KAHIKO, the kumu's and haumāna's duty is to get the dances correct down to the last detail- to get the dance right demonstrates the proper, highest respect. Hula KAHIKO teaches what is PONO for the rest of hula. On the other hand, the rules for teaching and dancing Hula 'AUANA are much less rigid because its basic principles are focused on enjoyment and creativity. 6 - HULA PROTOCOL AND PRACTICES: There is a set of cultural habits (ex. PULE-prayer) and manners that are observed by both the kumu and haumāna. Proper behavior is a must in any halau hula. Learning in a halau is considered a PRIVILEGE, not a right or obligation. 7 - LEVELS OF HULA, FROM BEGINNER TO EXPERT: A committed haumāna is one who really has a deep desire to learn and share their hula---never complains about dancing in the last row or not having solos. 8 - INVESTMENT IN HULA: Our hula education requires a major investment of time, money, and energy to move beyond the ability to perform for fun at 'ohana gatherings. 9 - THE FIVE "F" VALUES OF POLYNESIA: These (5) values of Mana'o'i'o, 'Ohana, Mea 'ai, Le'ale'a and Na'au are critical for growth and healthy well-being. These values are tied to MANA-one's energizing spiritual force. 10 - THE PHYSICAL SUMMARY OF A DANCER: A clear recognition of the (4) physical axes of the dancer's body will heighten our appreciation of hula---allowing us to dance hula with more precision and impact. 11 - MOVEMENTS IN HULA: The most important aspect of good hula is correct and proper posture. 12 - HULA STEPS: Dancers say they can feel when hula steps are done properly and that the entire body responds. Our hula lineage and tradition dictates how to do the specific hula steps. 13 - HULA IMPLEMENTS: All hula implements are considered extensions of the body and are therefore a part of body movements. 14 - HULA MUSIC: Hula music is organic and continues to evolve.

The handwritten ones were perfectly fine! You're good. I already read all of them 🥰 I was trying to make things easy while still ensuring you all understand why we do all we do in hālau. There are many groups out there that others can look to but I am trying to get back to the my original vision. This is one of my guidelines - pre Kumu Lei, along with Unwritten Literature of Hāwai'i and Kamehameha Schools Education Program. I dare not teach something related to hula without back up. In Hawaiian thinking, there's consequences to that.

People become inspired by all the love in hula leading to the spread of the culture. Not only is hula the “heartbeat” of the islands but the strength which connects communities. 2. Learning Hula “Hawaiian Style” - “Hula is uniquely Hawaiian” Hula is special to Hawai’i no other culture influenced the creation of hula. Respecting the roots of hula is important because hula isn’t “flashy entertainment”. Hula is spiritual. 3. The Importance Of Dancing - “every hula teacher… began as a student” The journey of growth in hula requires hard work and strength. You have to devote time and effort into learning and studying. The body tells a story, not just movements. 4. From myths to the Present - “Hula was a treasured skill and source of historical records” Hula has undergone many big changes but the culture continues to live. Erasing hula is impossible because of its strong roots to the past. The past cannot be erased, hula cannot be forgotten. 5.

Hula kahiko is passed down from many generations and the story must be told accurately. A dancer must understand every detail. 6. Hula Protocols and Practices - “there is a set of cultural habits and manners, which teachers and students are expected to observe” To become a hula dancer we must change ourselves for the better. Hula being seen as demanding shows the extent of the amount of culture being lost. In the past most were raised with these values but today not as much. Some change should be embraced, we aren’t perfect but we should always be looking to improve our character. 7. Levels of hula, from beginning to expert - “when a dancer receives honors and fame, behind that success is a devoted and knowledgeable teacher” In halau every person should be committed in order for the group to flourish. Halau is a team effort and we should not rely on one person. We should listen and observe our teacher because of the important knowledge they hold past down from many teachers. 8. Investment in Hula - “what is needed is a major investment of time, money and energy” To grow we must be ready to invest our time to become a true hula dancer. We must seek opportunities to learn whenever we are able to. 9. The five “F” values of Polynesia - “Hula is performed as a gift, something to give away” Hula should be performed to bless others, not just ourselves. Which is why we should aim to perfect our understanding of a hula and how we portray the hula. 10. The physical summary of a dancer - “Understanding the major parts of a dancers body candy greatly increase the appreciation of hula” We should learn the parts of our body so we use every movement to tell a story to its full potential. Starting from our fingertips we should learn to control our body to portray an accurate hula. 11. Movements In Hula - “However there are no absolute laws in hula” All styles of hula are connected, there isn’t an official correct way to dance hula. We must honor the style of our Kumu which has been passed down to honor our lineage. 12. Hula Steps - “He or she represents an ancient lineage of teaching” A simple movement represents a long, unique and special lineage of hula.

Kumu Hula: Roots and Branches Review by Claudia Yates Acknowledgments A’ohe pau ka ‘ike I ka hālau ho’okahi ~ All knowledge is not taught in the same school. This quote impacted me when I watched the Ke Ao Mālamalama o Ka Hula: The enlightenment of Hula and listened to the different Kumus from Hawaii tell their stories about their hula lineage. I believe that knowledge and wisdom come from different sources and different life experiences. We may follow one, particular hula tradition, but it is important to know that other lineage influences are also an important part of the hula. Introduction When people watch hula, they are in awe by the grace and beauty of the dance even though the observer may not know what story the mele is saying when it’s in Hawaiian ‘ōlelo. Hula is practically all over the world and when as a developing hula practitioner, I agree that “hula is a combination of skill, commitment, love and teamwork”. What stood out for me as an energy worker is the mana of hula as it is “based on energy and filled with expressions of pleasure and respect”. Hula was shared with me many years ago and now I want to share the mana of hula. Learning Hula “Hawaiian Style” “Hula is Hawai’i, and Hawai’i is hula”. You don’t have to be Hawaiian to dance hula, but hula connects us to Hawai’i. The rich culture and tradition and when you understand the spiritual basis of hula you understand the respect and honor it deserves. One of the things I struggled with when I first started to dance hula was that I wasn’t learning the meaning of the dance, the meaning of the words or what the composer was trying to say. I loved the dance, but I didn’t feel as connected as I do know that I am learning the different aspects of hula and it’s tradition. I realized that I was missing the essence of hula. The Importance of Dancing Dancing was always a part of me. Music moves me and it is a great way to express yourself through song and dance. Hula “informs, entertains, heals, and inspires using the human body as an instrument for storytelling”. We find this to be true in many ancient cultures before there was written language or a way of telling history. Everything used in hula tells a specific story or symbolizes somethings specific, from the a’ahu we wear to the implements used. They represent the people, the land and aspects of nature as the wind, rain, waterfalls and surf. I’ve come to understand the spiritual aspects of hula in a deeper level. To become a fine performer you just don’t dance, there is hanohano (pride), ha’aha’a (humility), pa’ahana (willingness to work hard), hō’ihi (respect), and po’okela (excellence). Have pride but don’t be pridful, have humility, work hard as you represent a rich history so it’s important to show respect and excellence. There is no “have assing” it as some may say. From Myths to the Present Hawaiians are very connected spiritually and with hula it was a way to tell history of ancient Hawaiian gods and rulers, stories of history and war as well as times of peace and celebration. This section tells one of the stories of how hula started with the goddess Pele and her sister Hi’iaka. There is no definitive knowledge of how or when hula started only that it has ancient roots due to the lack of a written language. Tradition was passed on by hula and oli as in hula kahiko, or ancient style hula. Once western influence came a new form of hula emerged, hula ‘auana, or modern hula which can be more playful using more modern a’ahu and the use of different instruments. Hula and the Gods Many ancient cultures worshiped gods and deities representative of nature and other elements. Hawaiians are no different. Some of the hula dances and ‘oli were performed and dedicated in their honor. Due to this some dances and chants were considered sacred and were kept secret.

The first hula dancers were man warriors, with all the diseases many great teacher and students died and the hula was banned, King Kalakaua brought the hula back. 5 - HULA KAHIKO AND HULA 'AUANA TODAY The hula kahiko was maintained in secret by certain families because of the repression, for the hula kahiko is very important for the student and the teacher to do it correctly do the exact angle of the hand, the exact height and correct gesture. For hula ‘auana is more important the understanding and enjoying the dance even if is not perfect. 6 - HULA PROTOCOL AND PRACTICES For the Hawaiians, the protocol is really important we need to respect our Kumu, we are a reflection of our teacher, learning in a halau is a privilege not a right or an obligation we need to honor our teacher for passing to us her knowledge. If you really want to be a good hula dancer you need to be able to practice long hours and be able to do your costumes, instruments and adornments. 7 - LEVELS OF HULA, FROM BEGINNER TO EXPERT Are different levels of hula, the curious onlooker, the part time, semi committed student, haumana, alaka‘i, ‘Olapa, Ho‘opa‘a, Kumu Hula.

Hawaiians like to do prayers, they pray in the beginning and in the ending of the day, they consider hula as a gift, they gave thanks for their food, they like to be happy and like to do everything with excellence. 10 - THE PHYSICAL SUMMARY OF A DANCER We need to understand the different parts of our bodies so we can increase the appreciation of hula. 11 - MOVEMENTS IN HULA A hula dancer needs to be aware of the feet, ankles, knees, middle torso, shoulders and upper body, arms, writs, hands, fingers and face. Sadly, the old s style grace and subtlety is being lost trying to achieve the dancer’s uniformity. 12 - HULA STEPS The hula steps can be a little different depending of the Kumu and halau, when you see the steps you can tell the Kumu’s style and their linage. Some hula steps are ‘ai ha‘a, ‘ami, ‘ami kahela, ‘ami kuku, hela, kaholo, kaholo huki, kaholo ki‘i ‘uwehe, kalakaua, ka‘o, kewalina, ki‘I, ku‘I, lele ‘uwehe, ‘oniu, pe‘elua, ‘uwehe, wa‘i. 13 - HULA IMPLEMENTS When we dance the implements are extensions of our body movements, there are different implements Ipu, Ipu heke, Ka‘eke‘eke, kala‘au, ‘ili‘ili, pahu hula, papa hehi, pu‘ili, puniu, ‘uli‘uli. When a person reaches adulthood, they gave them an Ipu and when the person dies the Ipu it’s destroyed or they pass it to another family member, no one can touch your Ipu and lees you give permission. 14 - HULA MUSIC King Kalakau love so much the music that he learned to play the ‘ukulele, modern instruments are exclusive of the hula ‘auana.

Successful growth comes from the roots that are firmly embedded in the soil of the culture, the stories, the values, and the language of those who have gone before us. 19 - THE FUTURE OF HULA – hula is life and life is hula. It is firmly anchored in the soil that gives life and sustenance and is flexible enough to bend and withstand the winds of criticism and change. 20 - BASIC HULA VOCABULARY – Words that dancers hear constantly and should know their meanings.

LUKA: There are many hula instruments used while dancing. KALEIKAUMAKA: Seeing the papa hehi used during Merrie Monarch is so mesmerizing; you NEED to know how to move your body in order to use implements. 14 - HULA MUSIC KĀHEA: Kahiko used ancient instruments while ‘auana uses more instruments that have changed with technology innovations. LUKA: Music used now is more complicated and creative than old times.

LUKA: The section on Lehua taught me more about someone really important to our hālau. KALEIKAUMAKA: Lehua needs us to be fully invested in the culture. It is important to Lehua that we spend time with the next generation (KIDS ARE WHY WE DANCE HULA. It’s not about US, it’s about the KEIKI.) 19 - THE FUTURE OF HULA KĀHEA: The keiki of this generation will pass down knowledge to the next generation that they learn from parents, kumu, kūpuna. LUKA: Kids like us Hawaiian kids will be keeping hula alive. KALEIKAUMAKA: It’s about perpetuating the spiritual values of hula above all else. 20 - BASIC HULA VOCABULARY KĀHEA: A short chapter about hula vocabulary. LUKA: These are basic words used in hālau. KALEIKAUMAKA: This list of hua’ōlelo is too short. We use to many more Hawaiian words in hālau (:
The names of some main hula moves. Steps can take on different names and styles depending on the school. This chapter lists different hula implements and some listed are ones we use. There are many hula instruments used while dancing. Seeing the foot pedal used during Merrie Monarch is so mesmerizing; you NEED to know how to move your body in order to use implements. Ancient used ancient instruments while 'auana uses more instruments that have changed with technology innovations. Music used now is more complicated and creative than old times. So many young Hawaiians are using social media, like TikTok and IG, to share music that pays tribute to Hawai’i of old while bringing in modern sounds/concepts. Costumes have changed a lot over time. Costumes in hula have evolved with the times. I do not like that “costumes” is the name of the chapter. “Costume” signifies dress up/make-believe to me. Adornments should be handmade and fresh. Lei adornments cannot be plastic and need to be made from nature. Adornments need to have significance, not just be something pretty to wear because you want something pretty to wear. You make lei only after you have been taught how to make a certain style. Do not use the internet/YouTube to learn how to make adornments. That is not proper. Competition is controversial because to compete there is more responsibility in bring on stage. This chapter asks if competition is right for you. I like that this chapter emphasizes the importance of Hawaiian language in competition. I didn’t like that it said that “children can do no wrong” as I think in our school, we have much higher standards for our children and they CAN do wrong if they misbehave on stage in public. Lehua talks about all the people and teachers that raised him in life and in hula and made him who he is today. The section on Lehua taught me more about someone really important to our school. Lehua needs us to be fully invested in the culture. It is important to Lehua that we spend time with the next generation (KIDS ARE WHY WE DANCE HULA. It’s not about US, it’s about the CHILDREN.) The keiki of this generation will pass down knowledge to the next generation that they learn from parents, teachers, elders. Kids like us Hawaiian kids will be keeping hula alive. It’s about perpetuating the spiritual values of hula above all else. A short chapter about hula vocabulary. These are basic words
1 - INTRODUCTION KĀHEA: It’s about what hula is versus what people think hula is. LUKA: The history of hula and what hula is about to people that know hula and people that don’t know what it really is. KALEIKAUMAKA: People want to imitate what they see in videos (like Hollywood movies) or at touristy spots and that’s why it’s important hālau dispels what is commercialized. 2 - LEARNING HULA "HAWAIIAN STYLE" KĀHEA: This goes into what it means to be in the audience as well as a hula dancer. LUKA: Learning hula how hula used to be taught but by people in modern times. KALEIKAUMAKA: One needs to be able to distinguish between authentic and hula fake, touristy kine.

LUKA: Hula Kahiko are hula ‘auana are similar in being types of hula, but very different in how they are studied and performed. KALEIKAUMAKA: The importance of keeping hula kahiko private and sacred; not everything Hawaiian is for consumption / replication. ‘AUANA makes me think of “hula classes” taught by non-Kumu at schools rec centers. 6 - HULA PROTOCOL AND PRACTICES KĀHEA: This chapter is about how hula tales a lot of work and you have to follow all the rules to be a good dancer LUKA: This talks about how it’s more than dance and is a large lesson in history and spirituality. KALEIKAUMAKA: Following protocol is how you respect your Kumu. Paying attention, being on time is now you espéculo hula and Hawaiian people. 7 - LEVELS OF HULA, FROM BEGINNER TO EXPERT KĀHEA: Different students have different levels of commitment to hālau. LUKA: Hālau hula is a lot like school but with a lot more commitment. KALEIKAUMAKA: Hula requires sacrifice. Otherwise you remain mediocre. It’s not just attending classes. You never complain to your Kumu about having a solo or. Wing invited to dance in public; if you weren’t invited, there is a reason. The importance of knowing it’s not about YOU. 8 - INVESTMENT IN HULA KĀHEA: There are different kinds of investments: time investment, money investment, energy investment.

KALEIKAUMAKA: Learning and dancing hula can be expensive. 9 - THE FIVE "F" VALUES OF POLYNESIA KĀHEA: Polynesians live off 5 words that keep everything pono: faith, family, food, fun, feelings LUKA: Polynesians require the 5 F-words to survive.
