H AWAIIAN H ISTORY H AWAII'S M ILITARY ... IMELINE H AWAIIAN T RADITIONS Music and dance To Hawaiians, hula or Hawaiian dance, is as much a celebration of life as it is a proud statement of cultural identity. According to legend, hula originated when Pele, the Hawaiian goddess of fire, commanded her younger sister Laka to dance. Schools were begun in honor of the goddess of the dance and temples were dedicated to her. Dancers lived on the temple grounds, subjected to strenuous training regimes and kapu (taboos) befitting the sacred art of hula. Hula was the method in which ancient Hawaiians passed along the stories and legends of their culture to subsequent generations. Hula kahiko, or ancient hula, uses dance and chanting to relate the proud and somber history, customs, ceremonies and traditions of ancient Hawaii and her people. Hula auwana, or modern hula, is the dance form most people are familiar with, combining dance and music for a more playful, joyous and spirited recounting of contemporary life in the islands. Missionaries who arrived in the islands in the 1820s thought the hula to be a little too suggestive and outlawed it as a pagan practice. However, during the reign of King David Kalakaua (1874-1891), there was a resurgeance of the old Hawaiian customs, including sports activities and hula. "Hula is the language of the heart and therefore the heartbeat of the Hawaiian people," he once said.

Spanish: Flamenco Related Topics: Body Music Plate Tectonics by Miriam Phillips (PDF download: 635KB) Hawaiian Dance Hula Hula is a sacred tradition for the Hawaiian people, going back to ancient times, when chants and body movements were first used as forms of communication with the gods. Until fairly recently, the Hawaiian language was primarily oral rather than written, with history and tradition passed down through dance and chants from generation to generation. The survival of hula is an integral part of Hawaii's past and future, having kept alive much of the culture's history, including a chronology of important events, battles fought and genealogical histories of the people. Hula has also preserved details about traditions from old Hawai'i, such as that of making leis, flower gathering, and preparing vegetation for medicinal purposes. The practice of hula continues to honor certain gods, goddesses and other deities, as well as natural elements, historical figures, and other aspects of creation. During Hawaii's missionary era in the early 1800's, most forms of native Hawaiian expression, including hula, were suppressed, and it wasn't until 70+ years later that the art form was again performed publicly. King Kalakaua, the last reigning king, once said, "Hula is the heartbeat of the Hawaiian people." Hula continues to carry the history and tradition, and the spirit and strength of the Hawaiian people through the generations.

HOME King David Kalakaua said, "Hula is the language of the heart, and therefore the heartbeat of the Hawaiian people." The hula is almost synonymous with Hawai`i. Anywhere one travels, as soon as people learn that Hawai`i is home, they ask, "Can you do hula?" Most of them picture the hula of the Steamer Days, "grass" skirts swaying to "Little Grass Shack" and the piercing sweetness of the steel guitar. Yes, that is hula, but it is one small part of hula. Hula is the literature of the Hawaiian people. Walk into a library. The shelves will hold books on agriculture, astronomy, religion, genealogy, and hundreds of other topics. On one shelf will be The Holy Bible. On another will be "The Little Red Hen". On another will be "Princess Diana". Hawaiians had, and still have, the same interests as everyone else. The Hula served, and still serves, the same purposes as other literature, both sacred and profane. There are ancient hula which tell of the creation of the world and its creatures. There are hula which tell stories. There are hula which tell about heros, chiefs, and chiefesses. To watch a hula is to read a book about Hawai`i.

E-mail this story Posted on: Saturday, April 3, 2004 Dancers animate Hawaiian legends By Carol Egan Special to The Advertiser If theatrical spectacle and vivid stage imagery is what you crave, "Hawaiian Myths & Legends," the current revised version of IONA Contemporary Dance Theatre's retelling of these tales, is a must-see at the Hawai'i Theatre. Based on the adventures of Pele, Hi'iaka and other gods and goddesses, the production abounds with images of fire, smoke and ash — creation and destruction. From the beginning of the world, narrated from offstage, the curtain opens on desolate, windswept China-silk seas churning beneath three cocoon-shaped bundles suspended in midair. Gradually, the creatures inhabiting these nests come to life and descend to join other beings emerging from the sea. With frequent narration to guide us, we have little trouble following the tales presented in a variety of styles. Artistic director/choreographer Cheryl Flaharty, trained in modern dance and butoh, combines those forms, along with aerial techniques and dance theater, to create a rich, 90-minute collage of movement.

Home A B C ... XYZ Out in the Hawaiian Islands, the Hula is recognized as an expression of life and love, of the stars and seasons, it is a dance of worship. It was danced to the Shark Goddess and the gods of Wind and Fire as well as the chieftains. This ancient ritual is only danced by the young. The thump of the drum, the rattle of the gourd and the sound of the surf in the distance, the light of the Kukui torches all add to the flavor of this dance. This dance tradition includes the hand extended at shoulder height, the head bowed, one bare foot placed at a right angle to the others instep. The "Lehua" flowers adorn the hair, while the "leis" ( flowers strung together ) hang around the shoulders. From the waist hang " Ti leaves ", partly revealing the hips, legs and knees. They sing to the music as they sway to the rhythm. Often times the hula is called Hawaiian dancing. This dance is a story told with the hands as well as the body. The Hawaiians invented ( some say Portuguese ) the Ukulele from the Portuguese guitar in 1879 with the Kings ( Kalakaua ) help, this instrument became a Hawaiian tradition.

Visit our sister property, The Plantation Inn . Located in the heart of historic Lahaina Town, our Maui bed and breakfast will surely delight you with its romantic charm and modern comforts. Click here to find out more. Home Dining Kupanaha About Kanoeau Dance Academy Keala Kukona founded Kanoeau Dance Academy with the mission to teach keiki how to dance and to imbue basic virtues in them at an early age. Formed in 1990 in Lahaina, Kanoeau Dance Academy is named after Harold Kanoeau Delatori, whom Keala worked with as a kuhina (Hawaiian cultural ambassador) at Kaanapali Beach Hotel during the 1980’s. Kanoeau means “gifted one,” and Keala discovered this meaning to be true in Harold’s character. Keala reflects, “Harold was brilliant, with common sense. He was compassionate, showed love, and everybody loved him.” Kanoeau Dance Academy trains keiki in the art of hula, while venturing into other cultural dances. While they have fun, Keala intends her school to be a place of discipline, where kids learn direction in dance and for life while their parents are busy at work. Keala imparts her wisdom and values in the hope that these keiki grow up to live fruitful lives. All members of Kanoeau Dance Academy featured in Kupanaha: Maui Magic for All Ages have won in competition. Ranging in age from 11 – 22, three dancers are former Miss Hula O Na Keiki; two are former Mr. Hula O Na Keiki; two are Miss Aloha Mokihana; two are Mr. Aloha Mokihana; and one individual won the state falsetto (singing) competition.
