We mourn the untimely loss of respected Kumu Hula Rae Fonseca, who died March 20 doing what he loved, teaching hula. He was looking forward to sharing his hula with you at this conference. We are pleased to announce that the hula classes he selected will be taught as he would have wished, by his kumu hula graduate and alaka`i, who proudly carry on his hula legacy. Please see the class descriptions for details.
