Workshop Session 6 (4:15pm-6:15pm)

This workshop features He Aloha No ʻO Waiʻanae, a mele hula ʻauana honoring the moku of Waiʻanae on the island of Oʻahu. Participants will learn the choreography while exploring the poetry, imagery, and place names woven throughout the song.
Instruction will include both movement and meaning, introducing the winds, rains, and landscapes of Waiʻanae and how the relationship between people and ʻāina is expressed through hula. Emphasis will be placed on musical phrasing, expression, and understanding the manaʻo behind each gesture.
No prior hula experience is required. All levels are welcome; comfortable clothing suitable for gentle movement is recommended.
