Now in ENGLISH and JAPANESE A YEAR OF AUTHENTIC HULA CLASSES IN ONE DVD! We can barely suppress our enthusiasm for this groundbreaking instructional video! It is the distillation of over 60 years of collective learning and teaching experienced by master teacher and master dancer.

We teach the underlying basic movements of the body in Hula. From there, we add each succeeding Hula step in order of difficulty and importance. We culminate the lessons with a Hula exercise section, using all the steps taught. This is your practice time so that you can perfect what you have learned.

Our instruction is very specific and very detailed. We call ourselves RealHula because we teach hula the way it is taught to real students in real hula classes here in Hawai'i. We are a cultural and educational group catering to sincere and serious hula lovers world-wide. We can say with confidence that with "Basic Hula," it is now really possible to learn the Hawaiian Hula in your home.

RealHula is the REAL THING!
For anyone who wants to learn authentic hula, has danced and yearns to do it again or lives too far away from a halau (traditional hula studio) the RealHula Series will more than complete you. The instruction is impeccable with added cultural explanations to enhance your personal expression of Aloha.
My heart was so opened by this video experience, and being blessed to live on Oah`u, I tracked down the real RealHula dance studio and joined!!! So you're hearing it from someone who knows...you will cherish this gift of teaching Kumu Kea has given us. In true Hawaiian tradition, it's a legacy you can be proud to share with your entire family.
Once you learn the "Basics", you might want to try the individual dance collection. I suggest "Green Rose Hula" for a first dance.
May Your Blessings Be!

Maika'i!
I've had this video series from RealHula for years...love it...have them all! If you are looking for authentic hula, danced in 'ai ha'a style, this is it...and it doesn't get any better than this! The most excellent hula teaching video I have ever seen...and I have seen most all that are out there. Get it...you won't regret it!

For Teacher and Student
As a teacher of dance, this video will help you help your students improve technique. As a student, it will open your eyes to the true meaning of Hula in a sincere and technically correct way.

We here on the mainland may not have a true view of what this dance from the islands is all about and where its roots are. This basic video will dispell a lot of notions about Hula and shows the real challenging and rewarding aspects of the dance, technical and graceful. It is a winner...I wish I had owned it 20 years ago...
