Hula Auana

 

Keanu (Cool Mountain Breeze), the Hula Auana Dancer
Birth Date: Kepakemapa 22, 2020 (09/22/20) 

Keanu’s Hula Auana attunes to spirit and gladdens the heart. 

Ma’ema’e ke ‘ala e holo ala 

E ala mai, E naue mai, E noke mai e 

Clear the path to move on 

Awake, Move, Persevere 

Like a cool mountain breeze, Keanu joyfully dances the Hula Auana, (modern Hula) accompanied by the rhythm of his Pu’ili sticks . 
His dance tells stories about the Ohana (family), the Hawaiian animals, the forest, the ocean, and the stars in the Universe. Everybody loves to watch. Keanu’s Hula is wonderful!

Keanu’s dance inspires us to awake, move forward and persevere, to live in faith 
with intention, determination and courage. 

Keanu’s Tutu (grandmother) wove her Mana (spiritual energy) and Aloha (love) into his Maile lei. In Hawaii Maile is the lei of eternal love. It is worn in honor of the Hula Goddess Laka.
Tutu also sewed Keanu’s red Aloha shirt and black pants. Last she made his traditional grass skirt. All these precious things were Tutu’s gifts of Aloha (Love) to her beloved Mo’opuna Kane (grandson).

Keanu is a 10” tall cloth doll who was individually handcrafted on the Big Island of Hawaii with the greatest love and respect for all that is Hawaii.

His body is made out of doll skin and stuffed with high quality poly fill. The body is wired for flexibility. The eyes and mouth are intricately embroidered onto the face. All accessories were individually hand crafted.

Keanu is not a dress up doll. All clothing and accessories are sewn and/or glued onto him.

Doll care: Gently brush the dolls and their clothing with a soft toothbrush to remove dust. Always brush the faces and bodies upwards towards the hair.

Keanu is a one of a kind Hawaiian Art Doll. Every bit of him has been lovingly handcrafted, to create a new friend who will last a lifetime.


He is ready to be your new friend and dance his way into your heart. 
Keanu’s dance honors the sacredness of life.
