We would like to introduce the new owners of Na Kani O Hula, Kapono and Kanoe Kamaunu. We are very happy this young, Hawaiian, Maui couple will carry on the making of hula instruments. Both are very knowledgeable, passionate and will bring so much more to the table. I would like to share our connection […]
The good news is that we have planted the new crop and the plants are coming along splendidly. The bad news is that we are out of ipu and almost out of ipu heke. So if you need a small or medium ipuheke, order soon. If you need an extra large one, see […]

I started dancing hula again about a year and a half ago. It’s interesting how my body and memory have changed in the last 15 or so years!! I guess that’s what maturing is all about…. Well, last night was our ho’ike….a presentation for our family and friends to show what we have learned […]
If you would like to see hula at it’s best, come see the hula competition this weekend at the Maui Arts and Cultural Center. We’ll have a booth there too 🙂
