Huna day 5

Hula class, Kumu's teacher, Uncle George Na'Ope showed up! And I was in the front row! It was a real honor to have a living legend show up for the class. Fortunately, he didn't stay for the whole class.

Learning all this in a few days is stressful. People are coming up against their stuff-quitting, complaining, perfectionism. For me, its my belief about my abilities-to dance, coordinated, in a group, hands and feet, and maybe even sing, in Hawaiian, no less.

Then we went to the place of refuge, where we became "pono" or "right" with ourselves. Very powerful.

Tomorrow we go to the volcano and meet pele.
