THIS SACRD DANCE PROVIDES A WAY FOR YOUR TO INTERPRET THE WORLD YOU OCCUPY
more fully and authentically in the way you perceive it. And it can inform you of the positive way in which you regard your body, no matter the size or shape, as an instrument capable of describing the beauty of creation. In this way, it reveals the sacred in all things.

As storytelling, experience the beauty of these ancient chants and the frequency and vibration in the sacred words of this "Living Language" of Positivity, Love and Gratitude. You will find your way back to live a life filled with wonder, rapture—and love for yourself and the world around you.

Testimonials
Dr. Jane Smolnik Boyd. Naturopath at Ultimate Healing, Asheville NC
I was thrilled to discover the beauty and sacredness of the Hawaiian Hula and it’s traditions! It is like a moving, flowing, dancing meditation, honoring Life, Love and the Great Spirit. Kaleo is a wonderful dedicated teacher with much passion for sharing the tradition with the stories, chants, and beautiful dance. I want to keep learning more hulas as each seems to be more beautiful and inspiring!

Learning to live Aloha has brought profound changes to my life, within a very short time. The Hawaiian Hula is grounding and balancing to the mind and body - many physical "aches and pain" have been greatly reduced. My self esteem has increased. Hula is supportive of curvaceous femininity. I have made peace with my body, finally. My health and body image are improving day by day. Experiencing Hula under the direction of Hula Instructor, Kaleo has definitely enhanced my life’s journey.

This is so beautifully healing. I am currently in Kaleo's Hula class. I have always had major, crippling body shame. I am learning how to move in unison with my innate beauty. This changes everything."
