Beginner Hula Classes

Hula is the art of Hawaiian dance, a choreographed interpretation of a poetic text, or mele, that combines pictorial hand and arm gestures with rhythmic lower-body movements. Beginning on September 13, hula instructor Lisette Kaualena Flanary of Nä Lehua Melemele will be offering beginner hula classes at Dance Theater Workshop in Chelsea on Mondays from 7-8pm. This class level is open to everyone – from those who have no hula experience to seasoned hula dancers – who wish to focus on the fundamental hand and footwork of the dance. The fee for the 12 class session is $140, but a discounted rate of $125 will be offered to those who pre-register by September 10th. Please contact NLMHULA@gmail.com for more information.
