NLM Hula Basics

Fri, 20 Aug 2010 13:39:04 -0600

Start: 09/13/2010 - 7:00pm

End: 09/13/2010 - 8:00pm

Hula is the art of Hawaiian dance, a choreographed interpretation of a poetic text, or mele, which combines pictorial hand and arm gestures with rhythmic lower-body movements. Far more than just a dance, hula expresses all that we see, hear, taste, touch, smell and feel. For many Hawaiians and Hawaiians-at-heart, the hula is also a way of life.

Beginning this fall, hula instructor Lisette Kaualena Flanary of Nä Lehua Melemele will be offering beginner hula classes at Dance Theater Workshop in Chelsea. An introduction to the basic hands and footwork of the dance, the class will concentrate on the fundamentals of hula dancing, rather than choreography, with strong emphasis on movement, posture, and relaxation. This class level is open to everyone – from those who have no hula experience to seasoned hula dancers – who wish to strengthen their foundation of the basic fundamentals of the dance.

Classes will be held on Monday evenings beginning on September 13, 2010. There will be 12 classes this fall and regular attendance is encouraged.

Dates: September 13, 20, 27
October 4, 11, 18, 25
November 8, 15, 22, 29 (No class Nov. 1)
December 7 (*Please note the last class is on a Tuesday)
Time: 7:00 PM – 8:00 PM

Hawaiian Language Revitalization Post-Hawaiian Renaissance

This lecture covers the emergence since 1987 to the present of the State of Hawaiʻi's Hawaiian Language Immersion Program in the Department of Education as a vehicle to revitalize the Hawaiian language for a new generation. The presentation examines the role Hawaiian performance art forms (hula and mele) plays in the preservation of the Hawaiian language and the use of technology in documenting, disseminating, and using Hawaiian language today. Special focus is given to the efforts of urban communities outside of Hawaiʻi to promote Hawaiian language usage and raise awareness and the need for Hawaiian language policy at the state level.

Manuwai Peters is a resident of Molokaʻi, Hawaiʻi and has been associated with Molokaʻi's Hawaiian language immersion program since it began in 1992. He has taught Hawaiian language to Pre-K to 12th grade students as well as to adults at the University of Hawaiʻi at Mānoa, Kapiʻolani Community College, and Maui Community College. While completing his graduate studies at Columbia University, he has been teaching Hawaiian language in New York City and Washington, D.C. He is also the Cultural Advisor to the non-profit organization, Hālāwai.
