We are hula sisters who practice and participate in events with the intent to share our feelings of aloha and graceful spirit with those who come to see us dance. We are excited to be able to dance in Hawaii while experiencing moments that we cannot in Japan such as Hawaii's tropical breeze, its fragrance and the aloha spirit of its people.

We are the Le'alea Hiroko Hula Circle, a cultural foundation promoting Japan-US friendship exchange. We are accredited by Shizuoka Prefecture, the home of Mt. Fuji. We seek knowledge of the history and language of Hawaii, needless to mention, the movements of hula. We work very hard everyday to practice hula and try to understand the meaning of its lyrics so that we can truly appreciate the dance.
