Class Descriptions

We have classes for all levels available to students of hula worldwide.

Our courses give you access to personalized and interactive instruction, as well as archived class videos, so you can watch from wherever you are, as often as you’d like.

Whether you’re a beginner or an experienced student, a kāne or wahine, Ha’a Hula will help you develop as a dancer and take your hula journey to the next level. As you engage the practices of hula, our hope is that you will cultivate a deeper appreciation for Hawaiian cultural traditions and find inspiration in your everyday life through applying what you learn.

Our classes impart the skills of hula with an appreciation for the cultural values of Hawai’i. As you learn oli (Hawaiian chant) and dances in both kahiko (ancient) and ‘auana (modern) styles, you'll become familiar with the history, legends, spirituality, language, and land of Hawaiʻi.

Founded in 2021 by Kumu Andrea Luchese, Ha'a Hula is an online branch of Hālau Hula Ka Pi’o O Ke Anuenue, a hula school based in both Halawa, North Kohala on Hawai'i island, and Ashland, Oregon. We are honored to share our love of hula with you here!
