    Mr. Alama was my english teacher. His humor and passion is the same. I love you Mr. Alama!! Now i want to learn hula too!!! While he was a teacher I saw his greatness and he even made me want to goto school. To sit in front of him to listen to him, to hear his chanting with his Hula student, literally gave me goose bumps. I closed my eyes to hear his voice. He is a true Hawaiian. ❤

    Kumu Kimo is so right. There are hula and chants you do not change for any reason, regardless of intention. THIS is our culture. We carry on....ho’omau or to perpetuate the ways of our tupuna.

    I truly appreciate my kumu for what she taught to me - we would learn the words, meaning, visit the places, and know the words inside and out as we were learning the hand and feet movement. Because of this, I am still blessed to know the hula I learned over 30 years ago and can still tell you about the places we visited and the connection we felt to what we learned and to the people who created it.

    Kumu Alama is a wonderful practitioner of traditional hula. The story of ʻUla Noweo as originally described by Uncle Kimo helped me appreciate the subtle movements of the hula performed by Frank. This was a treat indeed. Mahalo.

    Dear Kumu Alana: I learned Ula No Weo in Berkeley maybe 30 years ago and it was exactly as you taught it. I wasn't taught the reasons for the movements being what they are and wasn't given the history of Ilala'ole tradition. (my computer doesn't do Kahako's so pardon the omissions) I truly enjoyed your talk and may watch it several more times. Thanks so much. Sandi in Oakland.

    Hawaiian history lesson right there on things passed down and not to be adulterated. Lessons about changing and or appropriating.
