DANCE CLASSES

Dance classes are held at various times throughout the year according to a schedule based on demand. If you are a prospective new or returning student interested in learning the art of Hawaiian dance, take advantage of this opportunity to register for classes during their open enrollment periods. 

New classes may be offered throughout the year; so, if you do not see a class currently opened to you, please check back.  You may also write or call the Barefoot Hawaiian office.  Tell us what classes you are interested in taking, and we'll put you on a list to be contacted and sent a flier of a class that matches your request once we have opened enrollment for that class.
