HULA ‘ONI E EUROPE

3 years can make such an incredible difference. Seeing both the festival and the competition grow so expansively has been a wonderful experience. With a larger venue, more workshops and around 250 dancers from 12 countries, along with esteemed judges and members of the host hālau from Hawaiʻi, the aloha spirit and sense of community in Europe felt stronger than ever. Hoʻomaikaʻi to everyone who participated! Mahalo piha to the organisers, volunteers, kōkua & supporters who made it all happen

We were honoured to be awarded wins at the 2026 competition…
– 1st Wahine Group ʻAuana
– 1st Wahine Group Kahiko
– 2nd Oli Solo

None of this would be possible without the infinite aloha and trust placed in us by our nā Kumu Hula Rich Pedrina & Blaine Nohara. From the weekly Zoom classes to the extra practices and feedback, from annual trips to work with us in person in Europe to the sharing of precious manaʻo and time spent building pilina – we cannot thank them enough

Me ke aloha also to our families, friends and global hula ʻohana for their support ❤️
