Aloha kakou!
Pehea'oe? Māluhiluhi au! I am tired from our family trip last week to Disneyland. Luckily I have a few hours available this afternoon to take a nap before our kanikapila. I am going to need it.

Mele Kakou Class - Hawaiian Song Study Class
Have you been coming to my Tuesday night kanikapila for a while now and wish you could sing along with me in the Hawaiian songs? Have you heard the call to learn the Hawaiian language? Perhaps you just want to learn more about the hidden meanings behind many of Hawaii's famous songs. Well then come to my new Mele Kakou class on Sunday's. We will slowly go through one song per class and break down all the words, how to say them, what they mean, the story behind the words and song, etc... There will be no pressure to memorize, but a deep requirement to have fun and learn something while doing so.
