H Ō ʻ I K E

To show or exhibit. A presentation.

We named our first hōʻike “Hoʻoulu” because that was the heart of the presentation - to show our growth. Our hui is under the lineage of Kumu Kawika Alfiche of Hālau O Keikialiʻi. His teacher is Kumu Rae Kahikilaulani Fonseca, and his teacher is Uncle George Lanakilakeikiahialiʻi Naʻope. Since the Hui started in 2022 under Kumu’s direction, we have learned so much. Hula encompasses so many cultural practices - oli (chanting), mele and himeni (songs and singing), playing ipu and ʻukulele, making lei and other adornments, making ʻaʻahu (outfits), ʻŌlelo Hawaiʻi (language), and learning how Hawaiians move through life.
This was our opportunity to present to our friends and family how much we have learned and grown over the previous two and a half years. It was a beautiful ceremony and we were so blessed to have so many of our hula brothers and sisters from Hālau in San Francisco come join us, along with Kumu and ʻAnakala Kiaʻi. It started off 2025 with a bang and what a year it was!

A ʻ O A K U

Educating and sharing is one of our deepest passions. In a world that commodifies and appropriates Hawaiian culture for its own gain, it is critical for us - and for the survival of the Hawaiian people - that we tell the truth about Hawaiʻi. Hula opens doors for us to share these truths and to bring the aloha and ola that comes with it.

E hoʻomaikaʻi nui mākou - we are so thankful for all these amazing schools who invited us to share space with their students. We had so many incredible conversations, we danced and sang and laughed together and it was beautiful. Mahalo nui!

2025 has been a year for our Hui. We’ve beat cancer, had babies and grands, graduated from Masters programs, bought houses, got a driver’s permit, published manuscripts, and so much more.

Big or small, good or tough - we are more than just a dance group, we’re an ʻohana and we support each other through it all. So grateful for everyone who has joined our little hui and excited for everyone 2026 will bring our way.

A L O H A L O U

This was the biggest, craziest dream come true! 8 months later and I (Kaila) still don’t have the words to say how much this meant to me, to us. It was a humble offering to our Kumu and hula lineage, to our ‘ohana, to our community, and to ourselves. We wanted to make space for Pacific Islanders to come together and fully immerse in our cultures that often feel so far away when you live in the diaspora. We had no idea how many people would show up and show out, how many people would sing and dance and laugh and eat, how many people would say they needed this moment.

Mahalo to everyone in the Hui who devoted endless time and energy into making this inaugural event so incredible and to everyone who supported by giving of your time, energy, support, and presence.

2026 is May 30 and you won’t want to miss it!

Growth. We started this adventure in 2022 with excitement and hope and big dreams. Dreams are a funny thing - sometimes you can see every edge and detail in your mind and take the steps to see it become reality. Other times, there’s only a feeling and you’re reaching out into the dark trying to pull the light out and bring it into view. So much of our growth over the last three years has been both - guided by our Kumu step by step and following his example; and led by our kūpuna with a feeling of what is pono, what is waiting for us.

I’m so grateful for all of the growth we’ve experienced over this short amount of time! In 2025 we had plate lunch fundraisers, made lei for every kind of celebration, held our first hōʻike AND Polynesian cultural festival, and grew in our hula and aloha. Mahalo to everyone who has been along this journey so far and get ready, 2026, because e hele aku mākou - here we go!
