My main objective in teaching hula is to train future students to become Kumu Hula's themselves. To share with them what I have been taugh by my Kupuna's so that they may share it with others. I have graduated Sharon McCabe (San Antonio) Puanani McKnight (San Antonio), Manulani Birkmire (Dallas), Kapua Weyker (Houston) Dezlyn Aiwohi (Dallas). Some of these Kumu Hula's are registered on this hula site. I am their Kumu Hula. I plan on graduating many other students in the future.
