Hula Dancers from Japan

The traditional Hawaiian fine art of hula has become very popular world wide and especially in Japan, where there are more than 200,000 practitioners of this time-honored dance. The Pan-Pacific Hula Festival provides a dream opportunity for many of these groups who practice all year long, in anticipation of dancing the hula in Hawaii – the birthplace of this much revered and appreciated art form.
