2009 Moku O Keawe Workshops
Aia La Ola`a (Hula Auwana)
Instructor: Nalani Kanakaole
Students: 25
Class Time: 900-1200
Description: The poetry describes love, the sensations felt in the moment, and how beautiful it is to be with the one you adore. This song, written by Kaumakaiwa Kanakaole, was first choreographed by his Aunty Nalani Kanakaole for a performance at the Moana Hotel on Waikiki Beach. The motions allude to the quivering with delight and being enraptured with the beauty of romance.
As the youngest daughter of Edith Kekuhikuhipuuoneonaliiokohala Kanakaole, Nalani continues to lead the Halau O Kekuhi. Rooted in tradition, their hula style is known as `aihaa, a bombastic, bent-knee posturing that connects the energies of dancer and land through motion.
Bring a pa`u or a pareu. Participants are invited to showcase what they have learned at Sunday’s Ho`ike Program.
Workshop Price: $45.00
