ALL OUR WORKSHOPS CELEBRATE THE HEART AND THE LEGACY OF KING DAVID KALAKAUA
This year our workshops commemorate the passing of the First Hawaiian Renaissance Man
and the last reigning King of Hawai'i, King David Kalākaua (November 16, 1836 - January 20, 1891) .
It is a call to boldy do what is right on behalf of the Hawaiian people, their hula and their culture...
to be HE PUA LAHA 'OLE as he was in the mainland USA. He pua laha 'ole is an 'olelo no'eau Hawai'i
(Hawaiian proverb) which translates as a flower not common.
It is an expression of one who is as choice and highly prized as a very rare blossom http://morningmanao.blogspot.com/2010/01/he-pua-laha-ole.html.
King David Kalākaua commanded the return of hula for the Hawaiian people and
started a Hawaiian Cultural Renaissance in his days,
let us all follow his example and continue to burn the torch to do the same for the Mainland USA.
HAWAIIAN HULA INTERNATIONAL EMBRACES THE HEART AND LEGACY OF KING DAVID KALAKAUA
In the 1870's at 'Ulupalakua, Maui,
King David Kālakaua planted his ring of cypress trees known as the HULA CIRCLE.
It came to symbolize the reawakening of Hawaiian hula,
culture and tradition amongst those who are Hawai‘i and hula lovers.
After 40 years without hula, King David Kālakaua commanded its return at his jubilee birthday celebration.
King David Kalākaua traveled internationally seeking help on behalf of Hawai'i, his people and his culture.
HHI's mission is CARING FOR THE HULA / MIND, BODY, SOUL & SPIRIT.
Hawaiian Hula International's goal is to build a hula 'ohana known as Hawaiian Hula International,
a grass roots organization with a worldwide vision of a strong and united hula ‘ohana
that gathers regularly to renew their common commitment:
CARE FOR THE HULA AND SHARE ALOHA.
EXPERIENCE ONE OR MORE SESSIONS OF OUR 3-DAY HULA INTENSIVE WEEKEND FOR ALL LEVELS
Participation in the Hawaiian Hula Workshops and the Hawaiian Hula Arts Village by Kumu Hula
Leihi'ilani Kirkpatrick is also designed for those who may be interested in being a performing member of
Hawaiian Hula International, a collaboration of all hālau hula (hula schools),
Polynesian dance groups, hula worship ministries and individuals.
Whether you are a hula dancer, lei maker or kapa designer, we invite you to join us in sharing what we have collectively learned. The first performance scheduled is at the 2019 SAN DIEGO HO'OLAULE'A, the annual Hawaiian Cultural Festival to be held the weekend of May 4-5, 2019 at De Anza Cove.
We will also be a part of its Hawaiian Cultural Village in which Kumu Hula Leihi'ilani Kirkpatrick's Hālau Ka Lei Kukui Hi'ilani Mainland USA Extension has served for the past 4 years.

2019 Hawaiian Hula Workshops
by Kumu Hula Leihiʻilani Kirkpatrick
An annual 3-day cultural enrichment event held in North County San Diego, California hosted by Hawaiian Hula International (www.facebook.com/hawaiian.hula.international) and Halau Ka Lei Kukui Hiʻilani - Mainland USA Extension led by Auntie Kahanoa Floresca (www.halaukaleikukuihiilani-sd.com)
We are honored and privileged to announce all hula workshops at this event will be taught by the esteemed Kumu Hula Leihi‘ilani Kirkpatrick (Kumu Lei) with a wealth of experience and knowledge:
* Kumu Hula (hula teacher) through traditional 'uniki rites
* Recognized Hawaiiana Educator
* Recognized Lei Judge
* Kumu Huaka‘i (excursion teacher) for Kaua'i Maoli
* Ordained Kahu (minister) licensed by the State of Hawai‘i.
* Former Kahua (mentor) for the Department of Education and Kamehameha Schools
Kumu Hula Leihiʻilani Kirkpatrick started dancing hula in the 1950s with her ʻohana. She has been taught by several wonderful hula teachers/masters but has been most impacted by Uncle Joe Kahaulelio, Aunty Puamohala Kaholokula, and Loea Kawaikapuokalani Hewett. She began dancing professionally in 1968 and has continued to grow in hula ever since, having graduated through traditional ‘uniki rites with Kawaikapuokalani Hewett. With hula gaining popularity worldwide, students from Singapore, Japan, Europe and the mainland USA have been and are regularly coming to study with Kumu Lei on Kauaʻi.
Join us at the 2019 Hawaiian Hula Workshops as a workshop attendee, sponsor, donor or as a spectator of our Welcome Ceremony and Closing Celebration. With your support, we can keep the traditions and ALOHA of the Hawaiian people alive for our future generations by caring for the people committed to learning, preserving and perpetuating their culture and hula.

About Hawaiian Hula International
and Hula Workshops
About Hawaiian Hula International
and Hula Workshops
The humble establishment of Hawaiian Hula International (HHI) is inspired by the living legacies of Hawaiiana, hula and ho‘ōla of Kumu Hula Leihi‘ilani Kirkpatrick (Kumu Lei) and Lehua Kawaikapuokalani Hewett (Lehua). HHI was founded by Auntie Kahānoa Floresca with help from her hula haumana to honor these legacies and to increase their ability to support and unite the Hawaiian community, Kumu Hula and hula people. Auntie Kahānoa Floresca serves as the Alaka‘i (leader) of Kumu Hula Leihi‘ilani Kirkpatrick’s Hālau Ka Lei Kukui Hi‘ilani – Mainland USA Extension established in 2014. Auntie Kahānoa Floresca immediately launched the introduction of her unique hula lineage through the inaugural 2015 Hawaiian Hula Workshops by Kumu Hula Leihi’ilani Kirkpatrick.
The mission, goal and vision of HHI is reflective of that of her Kumu Hula and the hālau (www.halaukaleikukuihiilani.wordpress.com):
• Its mission is “Caring for the Hula - Mind, Body, Soul + Spirit” through public education, training, scholarships, products and services locally, nationally ad internationally.
• Its goal is to provide all levels of education and training to preserve and perpetuate the cultural integrity of Hawaiian hula, traditions and history, and to honor and glorify Ke Akua (God) in all He has given the Hawaiian people.
• Its vision is to provide events for all races and sectors of hula dancers to establish lōkahi (unity) and effective, loving communication through the practice of Biblical and Hawaiian values and the common purpose of SHARING ALOHA and CARING FOR THE HULA.
All events and proceeds are intended
• to help establish Hawaiian Hula International as a non-profit organization to accomplish its mission, goals and vision locally, nationally and internationally, and
• to establish funding and scholarships for Hawaiian Hula Workshops and hālau education of children with financial need and families of Hawaiian decent, first for members of Hālau Ka Lei Kukui Hi‘ilani – Mainland USA Extension, then nationally and internationally.
