"Kumu Hula (hula teacher) for 20 years, worked at Pûnana Leo O Maui (Hawaiian language pre-school) and at the Bailey House Museum as director, and taught language and culture classes at Maui Community College and the University of Hawai`i. The release of "Kawaipunahele" in 1994 was motivated by a desire to increase understanding of the poetry of the language and provide new material for hula students." ~Source
