Do you LOVE to dance?!? We do!
A couple years ago, many of us Still & Moving dancers got together to dance in the parking lot for what became our Still & Moving Center landing page video (see snippets from 1:46 onwards.) https://youtu.be/o2NRoaBmAAI . We had SO MUCH fun we asked ourselves: “Why not do this more often?!?” And now we are!
We invite you: Dance with love. Dance with your own style. Dance with us!
Join our Still & Moving dance teachers and students for a participatory event, including:
Turkish Bellydance with Murat
Hula with Kumu Malia & Doris
Bollywood with Nada, Sumoha & Darsh
Contemporary Dance with Jessica
Bodies in Motion with Gilad
Beliraq with Andrea
Align with Regina
Nia with Renée
and more!
Teachers will each give us a short demo and/or lead us in a warm-up, dance to a song, or teach a special sequence or piece of choreography. And if we have time left over we’ll all jam to great music!
Let’s also celebrate the winners of our ‘January: Light Your Path’ challenge & benefit.
Sound fun? Invite your friends and sign up here!
Mālia is an authentic Kumu Hula: a recognized hula teacher, officially having graduated after 17 years training from her teacher, Pulu’elo Park. Fluent in Hawaiian, Kumu Mālia frequently composes her own original oli (sacred chants). Kumu Mālia has an affinity for teaching young children. For the last decade she has developed lessons specific to infants, toddlers and preschool aged keiki. She also enjoys sharing classic hula and songs with the elderly. In keeping with her tradition, she is an observant and reverent student of nature and keeper of the land – the ‘aina.
Kumu Mālia Ko’i’ulaokawaolehua Helela strives to live a life of grace. Her halau, which meets at Still & Moving Center, is Na Hula Ola Aloha. Completing her uniki under Kumu Hula Puluelo Park in 2002, she now teaches hula and oli to a wide range of students, from infants and toddlers to kupuna. Mālia studied oli (traditional Hawaiian chant) under Kumu Hula Keola Lake. She continues to look to the beauty and grace of the Hawaiian environment for grounding and inspiration.
