He maʻalahi ke ʻike a ʻike i nā pōmaikaʻi kino o ka hula ballroom, akā ʻo nā pōmaikaʻi o ka naʻau he mea nui. ʻIke ʻia kēia mau pōmaikaʻi noʻonoʻo o ka hula ma nā ʻano like ʻole. 

ʻO ka pili ʻana me nā kānaka, a me ka pili ʻana me nā poʻe mākua ʻē aʻe, he mea nui ia i ke ola olakino a puni. A ʻo ka hana maʻemaʻe o ka noho ʻana ma ka lima o kekahi i ka hula ʻana, he pilina ia e nalowale ana ka nui o nā mākua. E pōmaikaʻi nā kāne i ka hula ballroom ma o ka hoʻomaikaʻi ʻana i kā lākou kamaʻilio ʻana a me ka manaʻo maikaʻi o ka hoʻolimalima manawa pū, e hana ana i kahi pahuhopu like. ʻOi aku ka maikaʻi o ka paʻa ʻana o kekahi i kekahi i ke kamaʻilio ʻana, ka ʻakaʻaka, a me ka hoʻoluhi ʻana ma mua o ka noho ʻana me ka leo ʻole, i loko o kahi hale kiʻiʻoniʻoni!

Aia pū kekahi pili pili i ka manaʻo o ka hana ʻana i ka hula ʻana i ke mele pū kekahi. He hana maʻalahi ka hula ballroom no kekahi e aʻo a hāʻawi i kahi puka manaʻo e hōʻike i kou mau manaʻo. ʻO ka noho ʻana ma ka papahele hula he mea hoʻomohala a hāʻawi iā ʻoe i ka hiki ke hoʻohana i kēia mau ʻano hōʻike i nā ʻano āpau o kou ola. Ma hope o nā haʻawina liʻiliʻi wale nō, e ʻike ʻoe iā ʻoe iho e neʻe maʻalahi ma kāu mau ʻanuʻu hula ʻoiai e nalowale ana i ke mele. 

ʻO ka mea hope loa, ʻo ka noho ʻana i loko o kahi lumi piha piha i nā poʻe like e leʻaleʻa ana, e hoʻolauleʻa ana i ka lanakila ʻana i kahi pahuhopu maʻamau a me ka ʻakaʻaka ʻoiai e leʻaleʻa ana i ka hana kino he gula maʻemaʻe ia i kou olakino a me kou olakino. He kūlana pilikanaka ʻaʻole hiki ke maʻalahi ke hana hou ʻia a e ʻike koke ʻoe i ka hui pū ʻana, ke aʻo nei nā mea a pau a ʻoi aku ka maikaʻi. 

Paipai mākou iā ʻoe e hana i ka hana mua. ʻOi aku ka nui o ke ola ma mua o ka hana ʻana a me ka noho ʻana ma ka home. A e kāhāhā ʻoe i ka hikiwawe o ka huli ʻana o kou manaʻo i ke ola. Nui kēia mau pōmaikaʻi manaʻo a hoʻololi nui i kou ola i kēlā me kēia lā.
