The Royal Hula-hula dancing girls were a feature of
olden days in Hawaii. The Hula-hula is acting out by
gestures and movements the ideas expressed by the song
which accompany them. The time is marked by striking
on gourds of hokeo and in some instances these dancers
are in honor of the Gods or chief as the alaapa-apa. The
professional hula dancers are devotees of the Goddess
Laka. The dancers are generally women, though children
are sometimes engaged in the less objectionable dances
and men act as buffoons between the acts.
