Disney Resort Cast Members Encourage Families to #HulaFromHome

With all Disney resorts closed for the remainder of the coronavirus outbreak, cast members at the Aulani resort have missed sharing the Hawaiian art of hula with guests. To cheer up themselves and the folks quarantined around the world, Aulani cast members have launched #HulaFromHome.

The Aulani Hula is taught to Disney Vacation Club Members and guests through lessons at Pau Hana Room and performances at KA WA’A Lu’au. The music and lyrics were composed by acclaimed singer and songwriter, Aaron J. Sala, and the dance was choreographed by Kumu Hula Kaleo Trinidad.

The Aulani Hula is known in the resort for enabling the whole family to participate together, from small children to grandparents. A compilation of Aulani cast members and their families performing the dance from home was put together and shared on the Disney Parks Blog to encourage other families to join in the fun.

#HulaFromHome is just one of several efforts by Disney cast members to continue spreading joy to children and their families while the parks remain closed.

The Disney Parks Blog includes updates and behind-the-scenes features known as #DisneyMagicMoments, while cast members share their own stories under #DisneyCastLife.
