A Hawaiian Night in Singapore : Ukulele & Hula Dance Dinner Event

ALOHA :D

It's the 2nd year of the group that I coached going for the final of the International Ukulele Contest in Hawaii, the land of ukulele itself. It's amazing to realize how the aloha spirit from Hawaii positively "infects" our globe, even causing some revival in our beloved small tropical island of Singapore, and now it's coming back to Hawaii through our local talents, SURE (Singapore Ukulele Revival) ukulele ensemble.

While they'll be enjoying their Hawaii trip we want also want to experience some aloha celebration locally. It's gonna be so fun :D
I'm so glad to be collaborating again with ToriYard since our last year event there.

Get ready for some solo ukulele performance by yours truly, some performance by SURE, some music/ukulele game, ukulele jam session and sing along (bring along your uke, or other instruments, or just sing with us).

And on top of that, joining as guest performer of the night is Kapuanani Namiko Takahashi Chan-Lee, director and principal dancer with the Ka Lei Maile Hi'ilani School of Hawaiian Dance (the Singapore extension of Kumu Leihi'ilani's dance school in Kaua'i). Kapuanani and her husband Aaron Lee are community artists, aloha ambassadors and co-founders of the Laniakea Culture Collective - http://www.laniakea.la/

Beside sharing her experience and performing some hula dance beautifuLELEy, Namiko will teach us some interesting Hawaiian hula dance to follow, accompanied by Aaron & I on ukulele and my lovely wife Santy P. Adiprodjo on vocal. We're so looking forward to our celebration :D

Last year I & some students went to Honolulu as we went for the final of The International Ukulele Contest 2019 in Honolulu.

One of the memorable moments in our trip was when we were asked to perform by the resto manager for an instagram live. When we were in that resto he heard us playing & singing and he liked it :D

At the end we've got some extra free yummy food

Here we managed to uploaded that video into youtube.

Enjoying Hawaii & its culture is really a memorable & fun experience for us. We're thinking to bring a taste of Hawaii to you locally.

Here's some details of the Ukulele & Hula Night Event this coming Friday : https://facebook.com/events/s/ukulele-hawaiian-hula-night/490205501689677/?ti=as

It's also an event for my other team of students to rehearse. They are going to perform in the final of the same competition this coming February. Your support would be very meaningful for them.

Be there to enjoy the aloha with us
