Welcome to Aloha Style on the Main Line

Say the word “hula” and we are immediately transported to the Islands of Hawaii. We think of palm trees, moonlit beaches and soft guitars. Even if we have never been to Hawaii, we can easily imagine the hula girl. Usually dressed in a sarong or grass skirt and a flower in her hair, she stands poised with swaying hips and graceful hands that tell a story. No other dance is associated so closely with one place. No other dance conjures up the same exotic images, and certainly no other dance can take us on a virtual Hawaiian vacation like hula can.

Many people are starting to appreciate hula as never before, and hula schools, called halaus, have been growing in number across the United States. Today, you can find people dancing the hula in community centers, church basements and college campuses from Alaska to New Jersey.

The interest in this Polynesian dance is attributed to its many benefits. Hula provides for both spiritual and physical wellness-- improving the strength, flexibility and balance of the whole individual. The graceful hand motions and the concentration on the words of the song encourage focus. It’s a great way to unwind after a long day.

Hula celebrates a woman’s body and will make you feel beautiful. With sexy movements and playful glances it encourages women of all ages, shapes and sizes to enjoy their sensuality. With all of today’s emphasis on hard bodies and youth, it’s refreshing to find a dance where you don’t have to be a size 5 to look good. And, given the swaying hip movements, it actually looks better if you have curves! Hula can be part of your life forever. There is no age limit. In Hawaii, some of the most graceful and beautiful “hula girls” are in their 60’s! Hula keeps you young in body and mind.

Hula classes include dances in the ancient form of hula (hula kahiko), as well as the more contemporary form of hula (hula ‘auana). Hawaiian history and culture are also discussed as they relate to each hula learned. Basic Tahitian dance movements are taught (otea and aparima).

See our schedule of classes, which change according to the demand.
