Hula on the Mainland - Radio Interview
This is a radio interview with Kumu Kawika by Ceil Muller, August 2004. The segment provides some good information about the Hawaii and the halau. (You'll need Real Player to listen.) Link: Radio Interview


Kaululehua Hawaiian Cultural Center
Our hâlau is closely tied to the Kaululehua Hawaiian Cultural Center. For over 10 years, the goal of the cultural center has been to educate the general public about Hawai'i, its people, traditional customs, values, and protocols. We do this through our workshops, cultural events, and performances with the hâlau. Visit the APOP website for more information about classes and events.

   About Kawika Alfiche
About Kawika Alifiche

I have been teaching hula to youth and adults of all ages and educating the general public about Hawaiian Culture for more than 15 years. Have been a long-time advocate of the Hawaiian culture and Kumu for Halau o Keikiali'i, and Director for the San Francisco Bay Area-based Kaululehua Hawaiian Cultural Center. With these organizations, I've been able to bring to the mainland, the essence of past and present communities of the Hawaiian people, the traditional customs, values and protocols.


Hâlau o Keikiali'i
Hâlau o Keikiali..i, is based in San Francicso. Besides having regularly scheduled classes, we strive to help perpetuate the rich culture of the Hawaiian people through stage productions held for the general public throughout the year, including educational workshops, performances and other cultural events.


Our primary focus is Hula Kahiko (ancient dance), which includes
...Oli (chant)
...Mele (traditional songs)
...Himeni (modern songs)
...Na Mea Hula (arts, crafts, implements)
...Lole Hula (hula attire)
...'Olelo (language)
...and Mo'olelo (stories).

Our group comprises both men and women, young and old, ranging from 5 to 75 years of age. We hold theatre productions highlighting hula in its many aspects. Following tradition, we share what we learn with different communities so that others too can benefit from a better understanding and appreciation of the old ways of Hawai'i. It is within the stories told in the mele (songs), with its morals and values, that people can truly be enriched in their personal lives. We can all benefit from the lessons taught. We hope to reach people far and wide, touching people who may not be exposed to the Hawaiian culture and share with them the spirit of aloha. Visit our hâlau website to find any upcoming performances, workshops, or other events.

Thank you all so much for your good wishes, positive thoughts, and support! I'm so excited to be nominated as an artist for the first time on "ikena", alongside Tia Carrere. I've been riding on her coat-tails since high school, when I got my first opportunity to play at the Waikiki Shell as her pianist in the Brown Bags to Stardom talent competition! hee. hee. I'm also very happy for uncle Dennis Kamakahi who received his first Grammy nomination as a producer on "The Spirit of Hawaiian Slack Key Guitar". mahalo nui loa (thank you very much), Daniel

I'd like to wish you all a wonderful holiday season full of love, laughter, and fond memories with family and friends.


But if you're like me and have an adversity to shopping, crowded malls, and overflowing parking lots, just remember what Christmas is really all about - GETTING presents! Just kidding!
