Join Hula Preservation Society (HPS) & our elders to learn about this new online visual resource. HPS received a grant from the Hawai‘i Council for the Humanities to present a set of 200 images online for the first time that provide insight into life in Hawai‘i in the late 1940s and 1950s. The post-World War II period brought tremendous growth and change in the islands. There was the sustained military and expanded visitor population that came by air and sea…there were the alluring tales of the Pacific coupled with fresh memories of Pearl Harbor…Hula and Hawaiian entertainment were an integral part of the visitor experience and helped many to make heartfelt and lifelong connections with the people, culture, stories, and landscapes of the islands. HPS is a non-profit established in 2000 dedicated to preserving & sharing the unique spirits, authentic voices, and historical record of our hula kūpuna and sharing that treasury with present and future generations.
Please join us for this special presentation in the 1st floor reading room of Hawaii State Library. For more information on this event, please check out the event flyer on the HPS website: http://www.hulapreservation.org/activities.asp

Self Confidence: Arm Balance Workshop
2017-05-13 13:00 - 15:30 | Yoga Centered Studio & Boutique, 37 Waianuenue Ave, Hilo, HI, 96720, United States
Self-Confidence: Arm Balance Workshop
It's easy to feel shaky in arm balances. The idiom, “Falling flat on your face,” is about failure, and with arm balances like Bakasana (Crane Pose), it’s a literal description of what might happen if you fall out of the pose. And if you are like most students, you approach arm balances with anxiety, fearing that your arms are not strong enough and that you might find you have bruised your body (and ego). To compensate for this, you use stubbornness–your face scrunches, your knuckles and wrists hurt, and you leave class feeling like you failed. Arm balances take more than muscle power and determination to find lift-off. Learn how to fly in arm balances by taking an intentional practice for your hamstrings, hips, knees, and torso. Let's build a love relationship with arm balances!
30$ Drop in!
