Mokihana

Mokihana This fan page will serve to connect me to those who are interested in traditional hula. Mokihana’s family roots go back to the garden island of Kaua`i. Festival.

Mokihana is a certified school teacher and duly graduated dancer of Halau Mohala `Ilima, a traditional hula school in Kailua, Hawai`i, under the direction of respected master Mapuana de Silva. She has been performing and teaching hula in the D.C. area since 1981. Venues include Wolf Trap Theater-in-the-Woods, the Kirov Academy of Ballet, the Smithsonian National Museum of American History, the Smi

thsonian National Museum of the American Indian, the Historical Society of Washington D.C. and the Taste of D.C. Through her small classes and programs, Mokihana strives to dispel the stereotypical ideas about hula, to perpetuate a correct understanding of the people, history and culture of Hawai`i through traditional hula, crafts and storytelling, and above all to share Aloha.
