The Radiant One A E Chewning

It's a very Hawaiian way of thinking. Planting yourself firmly in the present with your back to the future and your eyes fixed on the past seeking knowledge and wisdom for what you face today. Finding your purpose while in the middle of one of the most well-known families in Hawai'i makes life a little, well, challenging. In The Radiant One, Kumu Hula and extraordinary Mamager (mom and manager) Kau'i Dalire gives us a peek into the beautiful enigma of hula and the Hawaiian culture. She shares her story of growing up in a family destined to be crowned the royal family of hula. Readers will get a glimpse into intimate details of what it's like to be a part of that family chasing legacy and learn about the struggles Kau'i endures while trying to create her own path within the world of Hawaiian music, dance and culture. Follow this modern-day Hawaiian wahine (woman) through her journey of self-discovery, the traumatic loss of both her mother and her son, the legacy of her family, and the many adventures she's had while sharing the Hawaiian culture around the world. Life is hula and hula is life, so dance on. Dance your greatest story. Email: theradiantonehawaii@gmail.comWebsite: https: //www.ikumuhula.com
