CRYSTAL LEIS
Kawaikapuokalani Hewitt is the kumu hula (master teacher) of Kuhai Halau O Kawaikapuokalani Pa Olapa Kahiko, established in 1978. In his youth, he received specialized training from his grandmother, Eva Kana'e, and studied under Edith Kanaka'ole while attending the University of Hawai'i at Hilo. He also studied with Aunty Emma DeFries, and had since been recognized as her protege. His work in the field of Hawaiian culture takes him off island and abroad on a regular basis. His halau now includes students from Kaua'i. Maui, O'ahu, and Japan. In addition, Kawaikapuokalani has served the hula community as a judge in various competitions and has generously shared his compositions with numerous halau hula and musicians. He is very well known for his music CDs, such as "Makalapua 'Oe." As well as being a master of dance and music, Kumu Hewett is also a master healer. Part of his healing work is expressed in the making of beautiful crystal leis, some of which are especially endowed with healing power in addition to the natural healing energy of the crystals themselves. By special arrangement, The Huna Store is privileged to offer these crystal leis to the general public on the internet.
