Kawika is the first of four mele (kahiko hula numbers) in what our tradition considers the "foundation" numbers of the hula. These four numbers, Kawika, Lili'u E, Kalakaua and Aia L? 'O Pele, learned in this progression, prepare and train the hula dancer for the study of the vast repertoire of traditional Hawaiian hula. This is a true entry-level hula. It introduces the two most basic hula steps: the k?holo and the 'uehe. It also introduces the classic format for hula kahiko presentations: the dancer's opening position, opening k?hea (announcement), the body of the danced number and the closing kahea. It is a must for all ages and both sexes. This classic hula, from the traditions of Kekauilani Kalama and Lokalia Montgomery, is a mele inoa, or name chant. It honors King David La'amea Kalakaua, the last of Hawai'i's kings to sit upon the throne. We are very proud to share this important mele from our tradition.

We call our videos RealHula because these are real numbers danced by real students in real classes here in Hawai'i. Our instruction is very specific and very detailed. We are a cultural and educational group catering to sincere and serious hula lovers world-wide.

Level: Beginner

Language: Hawaiian, English and Japanese

Customer Reviews
Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - Kawika ... Ancient - Kahiko
I am sorry to say that I found the price quite steep for what it had to offer. Compared to Patricia Lei Anderson Murray's videos and DVDs which are cheaper and have much more to offer, I found this one sorely lacking. It whet my appetite and it was over.



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Authentic Hula
Those interested in Hawaiian culture and tradition will find this a fun DVD to practice beginner hula with this "foundation" number. It has also tweaked my interest in the ipu.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Kawika
It was very good for step by step instruction. I enjoyed very much and gladly recommend for the beginner. I am very satisfied.
