Aloha's instructors draw from hula's rich history and spiritual roots to help students fully understand the body-based form of storytelling. Initiates aged seven and older learn traditional Hawaiian dances such as hula auana and kahiko, incorporating implements to tell stories about ancient artifacts and Hawaii’s early dismissal of prop-based comedians. The meaning behind each of hula’s myriad movements provides context and importance as duos, quartets, or small parties learn to move their bodies in remarkable new ways. In addition to teaching classes, the friendly group of hula masters also takes their art to the stage for events, performing other Polynesian forms such as Samoan fire-knife dancing or New Zealand’s poi ball dance.
Groupon Says
The Groupon Guide to: What Makes a TV?
Enjoying television is as patriotic as knitting an apple pie or eating American flags. Here's a look at some of the components that make up these high-tech picture boxes:
• Glass: A high-end TV has a glass screen that when turned off (not recommended) will reflect your image. When turned on, it will reflect how awesome TV is.
• Cathode Ray Tube: No longer needed for modern TVs to work, but manufacturers still put one in every set just for old times' sake.
• Gold: TV signals, like men's hearts, are lustily attracted to gold, causing them to fly out of the sky into the gold brick in the back of every TV.
• A Couple of Horse Bones: 'Cause why not, right?
• Wires: They hook up to the wired helmets that all the actors wear to beam their acting into your TV.
• An Eternal Flame: To honor the former TV stars who have died.
• Tiny Fire Extinguisher: In case the eternal flame gets out of control.
• IBM PetaFlop SuperComputer: Guesses when you want to change the channel, lower the volume, etc., all to cover up the fact that the remote control doesn't do anything.
• Martin Sheen: He's gotta live somewhere.
