Dance to the Beat of Your Heart

Help me give my students Hawaiian print skirts and lei for their hula club.

My Project

Aloha! AWES is a Leader in Me school. We foster leadership skills and helping students to dream and find their passions in life. As part of their school experience students join CREWs or Clubs to explore interests.

This year students will get a taste of the beauty of Hula and Hip Hop dance in a fun and safe environment.

Students will use the donated sarongs and lei from this donation each week when we meet for an hour. For many students this will be their first time taking a dance class and I wanted to make it a very memorable experience for them by having them dress for each class and use the lei when we perform for others at the end of the year.

Our students come from many different countries that love music and dance in their cultures. Many of our students cannot afford dance lessons or dance outfits. These skirts and lei will help our students gain confidence, excite their endorphins through music and dance, and engage in physical activities through this club. Our hope is that our students learn to love dance and share their passion with others.
