About Hula

In the Hawaiian islands, hula dancing is an ancient form of dance and expression. Although it may seem simplified in depictions on film and television, the hula is a complex art form with the arm and leg motions mimicking many aspects of nature on the islands, from the swaying of palm trees to crashing ocean waves. Depending on the situation, the hula could just be a fun, celebratory dance, or solemn and as a form of prayer in which a mistake and mis-step in the dance would bring forth bad luck if performed incorrectly.

Dressing up as a Hula
