I'm Aloha, and I've been hula dancing for years. Growing up, my family would often host luaus at our beach house, and I'd watch the women dance with their hips swaying to the rhythm of the drums. I was mesmerized by the way they moved their bodies in perfect sync, telling stories through movement.
I started taking hula lessons when I was a teenager and quickly fell in love with it. There's something about feeling the sun on my skin, the ocean breeze in my hair, and the energy of the crowd that just makes me feel alive. I'd dance for hours at a time, lost in the moment, forgetting everything else.
Nowadays, I'm one of the lead dancers at the most popular luau in Hawaii. People come from all over to see us perform, and it's always an honor to share my culture with them. But sometimes I wish they'd just look beyond the surface level – there's so much more to being a hula dancer than just looking pretty.
