Ka Leo O Nā Hula, AC is a civil association founded in Mexico in order to: “To preserve the customs and traditions of Polynesia through their dances, legends, history, language and crafts.”
Started in 1990 as a result of the concern of a group of five teachers from Mexico when they perceived that there were many people interested in the dances of Polynesia and their concern to make sure they kept the traditions as true to the original of each culture.
From this came the idea of Ka Leo O Nā Hula, AC to organize lectures, seminars, festivals, trade, cultural trips, etc.. The greatest interest was focused on inviting teachers mainly from Tahiti Hawai’i to share their culture directly.
In 1990 the Earl Maikahikinapamaikala Tenn. kumu hula (Pamai) visited Mexico City to provide the first hula exclusive basic class: heke ipu touch and footwork and hip. He also taught dancing kahiko and auana. Since then Pamai has taught basic choreography seminars, always emphasizing the importance of the basics or fundamentals of the hula.
Ka Leo O Nā Hula, AC, from its inception to the present, has focused mainly on the culture of Hawai’i and organizes an annual seminar hula festival since 1991.
