Afterschool Worship Hula Class


with Auntie Kelsea Klein

Aloha SBH Parents!

My name is Kelsea Klein and I have been blessed to teach Christian hula for the last 3 years through my ministry, Praising Him the Island Way Ministries.

My heart for this class is that your student will grow in skill and passion for hula as an expression of their personal worship to the Lord!

WHO: This class will be made available to all (boys and girls) students from Kindergarten through 6th grade.

*All students are responsible for providing their own pa’u skirt (girls only) and water to class. Please wear comfortable clothes for active movement.

WHAT: Hula is a sacred, Hawaiian art form originally demonstrated as an expression of worship to the One True God prior to secularization. In this class, we will approach hula with the same heart, as worship to our Creator God, and with the modern stylings of today.

Every class will include:

  • brief stretching and prayer to begin class

  • learning and practicing basic hula vocabulary, moves and steps

  • incorporating moves into song form as a group

  • instilling love into fellow classmates through uplifting encouragement and fellowship

For this Fall 2024 semester we will be learning two mele (songs): one Christmas offering mele and one worship mele. There will be a performance opportunity for your students during the Christmas Concert on December 6th.

WHEN: Classes will meet every Tuesday in the Daybreak Sanctuary from 1:50pm-2:30pm (during SBH Math Study), unless stated otherwise stated below, starting Tuesday, September 3rd. Because of excursions the last Tuesday of the month, the class will meet on Wednesday from 1:50-2:30pm.

Here is the full schedule of all 14 classes:

  • September: 3rd, 10th, 17th, 25th (moved to a Wednesday)

  • October: 1st, 15th, 22nd, 30th (moved to a Wednesday)

  • November: 5th, 12th, 19th, 25th (moved to a Monday)

  • December: 3rd, 10th (moved to 12pm)

*Please sign up your student by Saturday August, 31st.

COST: $240 for the Fall Semester.

Full amount must be paid prior to first class on Sept. 3rd.

*Cash or check preferred (made payable to Kelsea Klein). Venmo option (@Kelsea-Klein)

I look forward to meeting all of you! Let’s worship the Lord through hula together!

Aloha & God’s blessings,

Kumu Kelsea
