We received a letter from the Chairman of the Chung Wan and Mid-Levels Area Committee. The content is extracted below:
"We wish to thank the Hong Kong International Hula Association for helping us organize the Cheer-leaders Team to win the first prize at the Central and Western District Spring Festival Competition event last month.
The introduction of the Hawaiian chant, hula and beautiful costumes greatly enriched the cultural event. It was definitely the main reason why the judges awarded us the first prize.
We shall think of Hawaii when we organize activities for our districts in future."

Ka Pua U'i
|
 
This song is written by Bina Mossman for her granddaughter. Ka Pua U'i means the Beautiful flower. The first verse reads:
I love you, my sweetheart
A lei of pearls to caress
You are the choice flower
Cherished by grandparents

To learn the hula, you can enrol in our Saturday class at Central.
