  1. Hula... aaahhh, the soft, flowy, and gorgeous art form produced in the islands of Hawai'i. Everybody who has lived or seen the gorgeous islands have observed the Hula performed at some venue or another and they all have had their breaths taken away by it. Nevertheless, it's more than just a dancing form, how to hula dance it's the narrative of these people of Hawai'i and its soul, background, and plight. It's no surprise that many folks don't just need to watch others perform the Hula, they want to understand how to Hula dancing themselves! But before you rush into linking a Hula team, ask yourself this question: Why Would You Want to Learn How to Hula Dance? • Is it because you lived in Hawai'i and also you need to be"reconnected" to it? • Or maybe you'd like to Hula dance at your wedding to present your"spouse-to-be" a lifelong gift of love? • Or maybe you'd just like to add some flavor to your boring exercise regimen with something much more fun and meaningful?

Ask if they are fluent in the Hawaiian language and if they teach the language to the pupils too. 11. Ask if they perform displays regularly. 12. Ask if they've earned any awards from Hula competitions. 13. If you are away from Hawai'i, ask if they have a"sister" Halau (Hula group) in Hawai'i that they learn from to keep current in their Hula teachings. 14. Ask whether you can visit and participate in a single (or more) of the weekly rehearsals for free before choosing to join their class. 15.
