アナホラの貸別荘

We meet at my house and I explain the instruments (drums) we're going to play. We start with simple beats and practice as long as everybody gets it. No worries if you never have been drumming before in your life. I also explain what the drums stand for in the community and how they were used in ancient hawaii. After one hour of drumming, everybody goes outside and we start practicing the firedancing. The boys with the samoan fireknife and the girls with the mauri poiballs. We practice without fire for a while and who ever wants to light it on fire, is very welcome to try it (no worries I'll help you). You can take nice pictures and videos while performing with fire. Other things to note And again, if you are beginners, never drum or played with fire in your entire life, don't worry, in my class are all levels of drummer and firedancer from 5 years to 70 years old!

We meet at Makaleha mountain and hike to gather some water from the fresh water spring. We hike another 10minutes to harvest bamboo. I have been making bambooflutes for 20 years so I know exactly what we can use (age, size, color). Every person can pick their own to make an instrument. I explain what is important to know about cutting bamboo. I also explain all the native plants around us - which you can eat or use for healing. I do “La’au Lapaau” which is Hawaiian medicine. I survived 2 years out in the jungle with that knowledge - eating off the land. The hiking part is over and we drive back tomy house, where everybody is making their own noseflute or other instrument. They drill and burn the holes and I help them to find sound. For a snack we serve fresh Kalo (Taro), Sweet Potatoes (Ualaa), Avocados or coconut candy. Opening coconuts, Drumming and weaving optional, if we have some time left and if the guests are interested in doing that. Other things to note It's a short hike on a muddy trail. We also have to cross a river. The hike is not longer than 30min all in all and also kids can do it.

For a single person or a couple. Other things to note Booking is per couple not per person.

PRICE IS PER FAMILY NOT PER PERSON. UP TO 10 members I welcome you to my home! Ok really my front yard. I have a spectacular view of one of the most well known mountain ranges here. Kalalea has been featured in movies like “Indiana jones: raiders of the lost ark”, “six days & seven nights”, and “tropic thunder.” Kalalea sits majestically in the background of my front yard. In the morning the sun cast gorgeous hues on the cathedrals, and in the evening the sunset sets the sky a fire behind the ridges. I offer a 45 min family shoot, quick and easy to capture your family in hawaii’s beauty by me a professional photographer. If our fruit or flower trees are blooming we can go for a walk collecting plumerias, avocados, star fruit, lychee, oranges, tangerines, bananas and chestnuts.
