What levels of hula do you
offer?
Beginners (children
and adults), advanced and performing
How young or old do you have to be to do hula?
All
ages are welcome.
Can boys do hula?
Yes. The same dance is adapted for
a kane (male) version.
Do I need previous dance experience?
No. Just a heart and mind willing
to embrace living life through the art of Hawaiian dance.
I have danced in a halau
before, do you have advanced levels?
Depending upon the number of dancers determines the level of new classes.
Does the halau compete?
No. Hula is taught as it was given to be shared with all.
What happens if I have to
miss a class?
Full tuition is still due at the beginning of the month.
What kind of costumes are
needed?
There are different costumes for different dances. All costumes are made
in mind to be flattering to all figures.
What do I need to wear to
class?
A Pareo (sarong) is required. If you only have a pa'u skirt that will be
ok, although I would like you to acquire a sarong as I can see your hips
and knees better. Absolutely no jeans are allowed while dancing in class.

Pepe's (ages 2-4): $20.00 per
month

If you would like to dance 2 classes per week, the cost is $68.00 per month.
Are there additional costs
other than the monthly tuition?
Yes. If a study tour, performance or workshop is scheduled, there will
be additional costs. These will be offered as optional learning experiences
to the student.
