Summer 2014 on Moku o Manokalanipo...

Here is truly where my journey with my Sacred Mauna begins... This is the summer where my spirit reconnects to a very special person I hold in deep respect and gratitude for her commitment to our Sacred Ways...This is Kumu Pua Case... I remember that year everyone asked me to dance in their groups but I truly only wanted to participate with Kumu Pua Case... You could feel the Kupuna in and around her....It was different and I've been yearning this since I was 1. So Mahalo nui Mauna a Wakea for answering my pule and all my kini for grooming me for the next #EHuE... As well as Kumu Pua Case for answering the call of the Mauna to awaken us, the lahui and the Kupuna in us as Kanaka Maoli...🗻🗻🗻

The awakening of the Kupuna within us...
