Hula implements:
Each haumāna needs to have a hula bag.
Each haumāna needs a binder for handouts such as words of the song.
Implements are determined by Kumu.
All haumāna are responsible for not only learning the songs but also doing their own research.
RULES TO REMEMBER
Remember this is OUR hālau, treat it and take care of it as your own. For example, making sure our shoes and slippers are removed and put away properly. Hula bags are in order with only the items requested inside. If you have taken something out in the waiting room, please return it. If you have rubbish, please throw it away in the rubbish can.
Be prompt and prepared for class. This means being on time and ready in your uniform.
Be ready to learn with your mind, body, and heart. Hula is an expression of one's innermost feelings.
Understand your Kumu wants you to dance to the best of your ability and will push you by correcting you in the way of our hālau that was passed onto her. As a student, please always watch your manners and actions, you are a reflection of not only your parents but also your Kumu. (And she will find out.)
No negative behaviors or energies in our hālau. We want to make sure we have good mana when we learn or make things.
Please remember that Kumu does things a certain way for different reasons that were passed on to her. If you have a question, please ask her directly. For example, no recording without permission.
‘Aʻa i ka hula, waiho ka hilahila ma ka hale… When one wants to dance, we leave our shyness at home…-`Ōlelo No`eau
Parents are expected and responsible to participate in any workshops scheduled by Kumu to learn how to create and craft different accessories and aspects of their child's costumes.
Communication is KEY, the door is always open…
Through these doors enter the future of hula……………
