Customers will learn about the Hawai’ian culture and history, hula dance, have fun, and perform. Shantel Rasure is the current head instructor, and a member of Pu’uwai Ho’āno ‘O Leikela Group, a hula group, in the Charleston area. She is from Hawai’i, speaks Hawai’ian, and has been dancing many different styles during her lifetime.

“Hi Everyone – Thank you for joining this intro class,” said Shantel Rasure, Instructor of Intro to Hula Class. “If this is something you have always wanted to do, a new hobby you are picking up, getting some exercise, or just wanting to meet new people, welcome. We hope that you take something away with you when you visit: A new word, a new move or even a new friend. We have a family here, and many of us have found a home away from home in this group. We look forward to sharing the Hawai’ian culture and dance with you.”
