Young Hula Dancer

Description

This 3 year old stole the hula show with her cuteness and concentration.
In Hawaiian, Keiki means young children. The Keiki learn the hand motions of the hula first, usually in the kneeling position so the hands and arms are the primary area of concentration.
Simple steps are added to the hand movements and the rhythm of the hula becomes evident.

You won't soon forget that experience, I bet, Heather? :) ! I like how the Hawaiians hang on to their culture. And not just for the tourists but for the sake of their ancestors and children to come as well. This little girl won't forget who she is! :) !!

Great job!
