Kekuhi Kealiikanakaoleohaililani Bio

Kekuhi is an educator who has trained in the tradition of Hula ʻAihaʻa & Hula Pele, chant & ritual for 35 years under Hālau O Kekuhi, named for her grandmother, Edith Kekuhi Kanakaʻole. She was ritually elevated to the status of Kumu Hula (hula master) of Hālau o Kekuhi by her mother, Kumu Hula Pualani Kanahele and her Aunt Kumu Hula Nalani Kanakaole.  Her Masterʻs degree is in Professional Development and Education.

Between 1991 and 2014, Kekuhi has co-produced some of Hālau O Kekuhi’s most significant contributions to oral and ritual arts stage performances, namely, Holo Mai Pele, Kamehameha Paiʻea, Kilohi Nā Akua Wahine, Hānau Ka Moku, Wahinepōʻaimoku, Ka Hana Kapa, and CD resources Uwolani, Puka Kamaʻehu and Hiʻiakaikapoliopele.  

Kekuhi served as Assistant Professor and Coordinator of the Hawaiʻi Life Styles program and was a primary force in designing the Hawaiʻi Life Styles degree program and student support center as well as the two-year A.A. degree programs in Hula, Fishing, and Farming at Hawaiʻi Community Colleges.  These degrees later morphed and turned into the current A.A. in Hawaiʻi Life Styles with emphasis in these areas.  For the past 21 years Kekuhi has been instrumental in writing for and managing 10 Federal grants that help fund the collegeʻs first degrees in native occupation and the very first Hawaiʻi protocols program of any UH system college.  

From 2001-2015, Kekuhi served as the Edith Kanakaʻoleʻs Executive Director and continuess to volunteer for leadership, support, and reserach roles in the Foundationʻs many projects. 

In an effort to broaden her service, Kekuhi left the University of Hawaiʻi to develop Ulu Ka ʻŌhiʻa-Hula Consciousness Seminar.  Ulu Ka ʻŌhiʻa is now in itʻs fifth year with a little over 150 students from all parts of Japan.  In 2016, Hālau ʻŌhiʻa-Hawaiʻi Stewardship Training was created by Kekuhi to teach basic Hawaiʻi practices that connect land and ocean stewards in Hawaiʻi more intimately to the places that they steward.  Hālau ʻŌhiʻa has two cohorts on Hawaiʻi Island and two cohorts on Oʻahu with a 5th cohort beginning in Maui in January 2020.  Hālau ʻŌhiʻa serves over 120 professionals in conservation, natural resources, education, cultural resources, and marine resources from over 60 different state, federal, private and non-profit organizations.  

Kekuhi & her husband Tangaro offer an annual Kū E Ke Olioli:  Chanting for Wellbeing Series.  She has developed The Charm of Mele, an online course that teaches the mechanics and poetry of mele.  She is currently developing an online chant course, OLI HONUA, to support learners worldwide. 

One of Kekuhiʻs passionʻs is strengthening the relationship between Hawaiʻi ecological wisdom and scientific wisdom. Kekuhi served as the Senior Scholar at The Kohala Center for 20 years. She has the honor of working with some of Hawaiʻiʻs most passionate committed conservation and restoration organizations, individuals, and initiatives, one of them being the Kā Mauli Hou-the statewide Hawaiʻi Conservation and Restoration Initiative, the USDA Forest Service,  Kekuhi continues to facilitate ways of improving how Hawaiʻi consciousness and science & technology consciousness can work in harmony for the wellbeing of Hawaiʻi. Kekuhiʻs most important message in this effort is: "I Ola ʻOe, I Ola Mākou Nei"~my life is dependent on you and your life is dependent on me.

In addition...to hula, chant, & Hawaiʻi-ecology, Kekuhiʻs love affair with music as a way to heighten and expand vibrations of wellbeing in the world, inspired a singing career. As co-creators, Kekuhi & husband Tangaro gave birth to 3-CDs, "Hahani Mai" (Punahele Productions), and "Kekuhi", and "Honey Boy" (MountainApple Company). She was honored with a Nā Hōkū Hanohano Award as Female Vocalist of the Year in 1999, and has performed on numerous concert stages over the past 20 years. Kekuhi spends part of her music career with her daughter Kaumakaiwa Kealiikanakaole and artist & producer Shawn Kekoa Pimental. They released the single Moloka'i Jam in 2013.  Kekuhi has recently released the 21st Anniversary Edition of Hahani Mai and an all new Hahani Mai: Reimagined on June 21, 2018.
