Two Hawaiian women, born around the turn of the 19th century into the 20th, became students, performers and finally acknowledged repositories of hula and its associated knowledge. They passed on their expertise and knowledge in many ways to many others, and especially to one daughter each, who has passed it on yet again. This narrative of aspects of these women’s lives focusses on their learning and teaching, and contributes to a deeper understanding of the hula tradition in Hawai‘i and the significant role of women in maintaining and enhancing it. |
