Hālau Hula Aulani

These beautiful wāhine competed at the 4 Days of Aloha in the Pacific Northwest Hapa Haole Hula Competition in Vancouver, WA last July, taking first place in the wāhine category. They captivated all who watched as they gracefully told the story of “Beautiful Kaua’i” & “Wai’anae” in a medley of two songs.

These amazing keiki took 1st Place at the 4 Days of Aloha in the Pacific Northwest Hapa Haole Hula Competition last summer. They performed “Mele of My Tūtū E.” 🩵👒

Aloha kākou! We are currently on a 1 month break, but are accepting new and returning students for the Spring-Summer Session which begins the first week of March. Visit oregonhula.com for the updated schedule, including a NEW keiki class.

Mark your calendars for 4 Days of Aloha 2026! Amazing workshops, a hula competition, and nonstop entertainment, food and shopping. Here’s a photo of our hālau competing last year. Let’s go, Roseburg. Follow their event for all the details. Hope to see many lovers of hula up there.

Last year’s competition was a powerful reminder of the strength and artistry within our hula community. This year, we look forward to welcoming dancers back to the stage for an even more inspiring celebration of hula.

Rest in aloha Kumu Leina’ala. I will always remember you by your powerful ‘oli and chanting, your love for your daughter Breeze, and above all, your gratitude and love for Ke Akua. It was a privilege to learn from you, to pray for Breeze during her preparation to compete for Miss Aloha Hula, and to witness your honors at Merrie Monarch this year. Whenever I hear the mele Halema’uma’u, I will remember you. . Thank you for your sharing of hula with the world. The loss to the hula community is deeply and collectively felt. Until we all meet again… rest in aloha.

Hula is starting! See you TOMORROW 💞

Tis the season for new beginnings. We will hit the ground running the first week of September with dances and costumes for Hō'ike 2026. If you plan to perform next summer, now is the time to start. New schedule posted this morning. Oregonhula.com

Wow, dancers. Nice work last night. Thank you for showing up and being ready to put on another awesome showcase. I’m proud of each and every one of you. Keep working hard. Thank you Roseburg Parks and Recreation for hosting and News Radio 1240 KQEN for tech. Thank you, Garret for being MC and mom for music duty. Thanks to all of the hula moms and wāhine hula backstage who helped with lineups, dressing, set up, and tear down. It all requires so much coordination and your participation is what makes our hālau great. I hope you had fun. Mahalo.

This is how happy and proud she makes me. Ha'aheo nō wau iā ‘oe e ku’u kaikamahine.
