- Kahana Malie*. (the song about kapa making) This is one of the songs the students will have to write and/or memorize. I've let them know that they will have to know, at minimum, the kahea for this song, but it would be awesome if they could memorize the entire song. I'm hoping they can get it by March/April.
- Waikaloa. No changes. They should know this, including kahea and motions.
- Anahola. I will be teaching implement hula this month after we brush up on the hula motions and kahea for this song. Some keiki will be dancing with implements and others will dance without. They will practice both and then test out on which they can perform. Please have students bring in a milk jug (for ipu) and the 'ili'ili (rocks) if they had taken them home before for practice. I will have the kala'au (sticks) at the studio along with 'uli'uli (feathered implements). Please have them practice their kahea (first word of each verse). Keiki kane are included in this hula.
- Sophisticated Hula*. It is the same hula they've been dancing except they'll be fine tuning the Makaha Sons version with the Get Hep to Swing version. They do not need to know kahea for this.
New:
- E Huli Ho'i Mai. New song. Fun song. I hope they enjoy it.
- Oli Aloha. This is a new chant that I do not require them to know but would like them to learn.
- New kahiko (to be filled and begun in February)
- Maori dance?
- Tahitian routine?
Kaikamahine:
- Aloha Week Hula
- Papale Lauhala
- Hawaiian Rollercoaster Ride
- Kino'ole Fireman's Ball
