Hula dancing is a beautiful art form, and there are many hand motions used to represent the words in a song or chant. In our Hula Dance Class, our guests are invited to learn basic steps, hand motions, and some stories about Hawai’i. #atthekahala #hula #huladancing #dance | The Kahala Hotel & Resort | Facebook
