A generation ago, ʿuniki hula (a hula graduation ceremony) was a rare and seldom-discussed event; now ʿuniki are televised, included in university classes, and regularly conducted throughout Hawaiʿi. What are the elements and requirements of this revived ʿuniki ceremony?

The Hula: Mind, Body and Spirit lecture and film series was made possible through the generous support from the Hawaii Tourism Authority, JABSOM, UH Mānoa and Ka 'Aha Hula 'O Hālauaola.
