🌺 A New Space for Hula, Culture & Connection 🌺
Sacred Hearts Academy recently celebrated the blessing of our new Hula Dance Studio, a dedicated space where students will deepen their connection to Hawaiʻi through hula, language, history, storytelling, and tradition.
Our hālau, Nā Puʻuwai o ka Ua Līlīlehua, takes its name from the misty rain of Līlīlehua, traditionally associated with Pālolo and the upper areas of Waikīkī—the rain of the area surrounding Sacred Hearts Academy. Like the cool, gentle Līlīlehua rain, our young women are called to care for and nurture their ʻāina and community of Kaimukī. 🌧️🌺
This school year, Kumu Haukea Ho ’97, a proud SHA alumna, will lead hula instruction for middle and high school students, as well as after-school enrichment classes.
Through hula, students will learn more than choreography. They will discover Hawaiian language, history, values, storytelling, and a deeper respect for place—honoring traditions while carrying them forward.
Mahalo nui loa to Moʻolelo Studios for helping bring this vision to life and investing in the cultural education of our students for generations to come. 🤍💛
