Hula Dance for the Spring Concert

Our spring dance concert is coming up on may 10th at MKIS and i have been choreographing a hula dance for it. but the problem is that its a different type of dancing than these girls are used to and it's pretty tough to teach them. and i cant really say that im making it exactly very easy for them. i staged the whole dance yesterday and its literly so complicated its hard for me to understand myself. the girls have to be in 5 different positions for the whole dance . and they have to chant which i dont think makes them very happy haha but i think in the end it will turn out pretty cool. gabe still needs to work on learning how to blow the conch shell that we got and then hopefully it will be perfect! :)

this is approximately what the outfits will look like except the hair will be down and as crimped as possible and there will be leis around the head and kupe'e around the wrists. the rolled up top of the skirt is good for the dance because it will exaggerate the dancer's hips which will be needed in my dance :)

so this is the kind of head leis i want and then the ones around the wrist as well except that the leaves and flowers are very thin strands of jasmine
