Hula for Health
Hula for Health is a weekly class that is taught by Kumu Lori Lei Katahara and features health education provided by Katelynn Kubo, MS, RDN, LD and Paula Paredes, RN. Hula is the traditional Native Hawaiian dance that is enjoyed by the dancers and their audiences. During this class, Kumu Lori Lei teaches haumāna (students) the hula and kaona (hidden meaning) of mele. One recommendation to living a healthy lifestyle is to engage in 150 minutes of moderate-intensity, prolonged physical activity a week. Hula can be the perfect melding of cultural activity and health, which is why we invite our community members to register and participate in this class.
