Club helps beginners understand Hawaiian dance

HUI O HULA

Everyone is welcome to join Hui O Hula’s dance from 1 p.m., upstairs in Clubhouse 6 on Tuesdays and/or at Veterans Plaza on Thursdays.

Dancers get together every week and imagine themselves in Hawai’i dancing on a sunny beach under coco palms. It is a fun and relaxing way to spend time with friends.

The club gives mahalo/thanks to dancers Susan Cucci and Yo Kishi’s leadership in sharing their hula knowledge while Jojo Weingart was away.

If there is enough interest, a hula class for beginners can be arranged.

For more information, call 562-431-2242 or email Jojo@huiohula.com.

The Hui O Hula Club has been going strong for over a decade. Pictured are the club's 2013 newcomers "graduating" from their beginner class. All of those pictured are no longer practicing hula, but they sure had fun dancing together. Ten years later, the club is still helping beginners understand the Hawaiian culture and dance.
