A Little About Michaela
As a Hawaiian studies teacher and cultural practitioner, Michaela comes with years of experience. Performing the hula at the age of 3, alongside her two sisters, Pualani and Renee. A great influence was her mother, Kaohelo, also a hula dance and Hawaiian Studies teacher. Her Tutu Man, great grandfather, was a Kahuna of prayer, medicine and healing. Tutu Man was a great presence in the community and her ohana. She says that her greatest love is her son Dylan La'akeakealaka'iokealoha.
Michaela has performed for numerous dignitaries and celebrities throughout the years. She has traveled extensively performing hula, lecturing and speaking about the Hawaiian traditions and culture. She is well known for her Hawaiian storytelling called Mo'olelo, which tells the stories of the gods and people of Hawaii.
Her training in Ho'oponopono started in High School learning the old way, then continuing her studies as a young adult in the modern training of Ho'oponopono with the Foundation of I. Ho'oponopono is the process of bringing balance, forgiveness, responsibility and always with aloha. When you give out love, love comes back in return.
Malama Pono,
Michaela Lehuanani Ikaika Larson
