Hula Circle Likolani

Aloha! Welcome to Likolani, the official Hula Circle of APU.
Did you know that hula is similar to sign language? Originally, the Hawaiian language did not have a written form, and hula played an important role in passing down myths, history, and cultural traditions to future generations.
The phrase "Hula is Life" holds true, emphasizing the profound depth of Hula. Beyond the rhythmic movements, it carries the weight of life lessons, serving as a cultural vessel for preserving the essence of Hawaiian heritage.
In the absence of a written language, Hula became a living expression of stories and emotions, much like sign language. Our Hula Circle, Likolani, embraces this rich tradition and invites you to explore the profound connection between dance and life.
Join us as we dance amidst the breathtaking beauty of Beppu's nature, which rivals the splendor of Hawaii. Just as Hula is intertwined with the essence of life, Likolani is a vibrant community where we share not only dance but also the spirit of aloha. Come dance with us and experience the depth and beauty that Likolani has to offer.
