HAWAII - enjoyed throughout the world for its beauty, its poetry and prayer in motion, the hula traces its ancient roots to the beginning of time. Hula is ritual - the highest form of artistic and spiritual expression in Hawaii.  This is an invitation to walk between worlds and dance the splendour of the sacred hula - together as 'ohana' family."
