Halau Hula O'Kahikilaulani is a hula school in Hilo offering instruction in both `auana (modern) and kahiko (ancient) hula. The hālau integrates Hawaiian culture, `Olelo Hawai`i, historical knowledge, folklore, crafting, art, lei making, and community workshops into its daily teaching. Classes include groups for girls and women ages 13 and up, as well as moderately paced classes designed for mothers and grandmothers seeking expressive movement, light exercise, and a supportive community.
