Join us this Sunday as Kumu Keala Ching will lead us
in a specially created Hawaiian chant using the words such as Hualālai, Pūōhau, Kanakau, and Kealakekua:
Kanakau
Kau maila kahi ola o Hualālai
Lae ala ʻO Pūōhau ala lahaʻole
Lepelepe ʻula ola o Kanakau
Kau aʻela ka mana Kealakekua
Kua pali kapu o Keauoa ala

Kumu is an educator, composer, song writer, and kumu hula. He lives and breathes aloha into his Hawaiian heritage with his strong presence and great heart.
Growing up on the island of Oʻahu, Keala Ching began his hula training at a young age. After many years learning and building his knowledge he graduated in the ʻuniki rites to become a kumu hula. He serves as kumu for several halau, including two in Japan and one in Switzerland. He has been a practitioner of Ho'oponopono since 1999.
Kumu is a graduate of University of Hawaiʻi, Mānoa, with a degree in early childhood education. He earned a Master's degree in education from Chaminade University. He is fluent in the Hawaiian language, which he uses as the foundation for teaching his students, both children and adults. Kumu is the co-founder and Executive Director of a foundation, Na Wai Iwi Ola. To learn more, visit the website: www.nawaiiwiola.org
Kumu has taught keiki and served in other capacities for several schools in the Kona area. Since 2024, Kumu has served as Vice Principal of Kealakehe Elementary School. He teaches hula classes and does a monthly “talk story” event called Under the New Moon at the Outrigger (formerly Sheraton) in Keauhou.
