Leilani's Hula Dream at Merrie Monarch

Merrie Monarch 2025: A Hula Dream Come True

For years, Leilani had watched the Merrie Monarch Festival on TV, mesmerized by the grace of the dancers and the powerful chants that echoed through the Hilo Civic Auditorium. Now, at 19, she was finally here—not just as a spectator, but as a competitor with her hālau, under the guidance of her kumu hula, Aunty Nalani.

The week had been a whirlwind of excitement: the ho‘ike (exhibition night), the Miss Aloha Hula competition, and now, the group kahiko (ancient hula) performance. Backstage, Leilani adjusted her pa‘u (skirt) and lei, her heart pounding.

'Remember,' Aunty Nalani whispered, 'this hula is not just for the judges. It’s for our ancestors, for the story we carry.'

As the drums began, Leilani and her hālau stepped onto the stage. The chant, 'Eia Hawai‘i,' told of the birth of the islands, and with every movement—the sway of their hips, the flutter of their hands—they brought the legend to life. The crowd erupted in applause, but Leilani barely heard it. She was lost in the dance, feeling the spirit of hula flow through her.

When the awards were announced, her hālau won first place in kahiko. Tears filled Leilani’s eyes as she hugged her fellow dancers. This was more than a trophy—it was the fulfillment of a dream, a connection to her culture, and the start of a new chapter in her hula journey.

As the festival fireworks lit up the Hilo sky, Leilani knew one thing for sure: she would be back next year, dancing once more in honor of the Merrie Monarch.

The End. 🌺
