annotated source list

“Alternative Hawaii.” Google. 13 October 2007

www.alternative-hawaiia.com/hacul/hula.htm

This had a lot of information on the culture. It also helped me to see that it is a sacred ritual so the dancers need to really become fwhat the music is talking about wether it bee a flower or an animal.

“Indian child.” Google.13 October 2007

http://www.indianchild.com/games/hula-dancing.htm

Another good website even though it doesn’t offer a lot information the information it does offer is very meaningful.

“Aloha Magazine.” Google.15 October 2007

http://www.alohamagazine.com/en/hula.htm

This website talks about the chanting and some of the implements they use. It talks about the different ways hula can be done and the many instruments that are used.

“Hawaiian Language.” Google.15 October 2007

http://www.geocities.com/~olelo/

On this website there was a page with Hawaiian songs on them with the English translation. I’m not sure this will help me with my songs but if I could see if my teacher could translate the words and copy them that might help.

“iefit.” Google.15 Ocober2007

http://www.iefit.com/fitness/toning-videos.htm

I was looking for excercises to help with hula and it brought up many websites showing videos to buy. This one that I chose actually shows a number of videos showing you the basic hula moves along with strengthening your body.

Great--these are exactly the kind of thing I have in mind for strong annotations.
