David Kamakahi, Kale Hannahs & Matt Sproat with hula by 3 ladies of the talented Dalire `Ohana: Kili Lai, Kapua Dalire-Moe, and Kauʻi Dalire at Ola Ka Ha, a benefit for `Iolani Palace on April 6, 2014
I agree. Kapua Dalire-Moe is the oldest of the three Dalire sisters, daughters of the renowned kumu hula (hula teacher) Aloha Dalire of Keolalaulani Hālau ʻŌlapa O Laka, who was the first Miss (Aloha) Hula at the famous Merrie Monarch (Hula) Festival , and all three of her daughters also won the title and are kumu hula themselves..Kauʻi Dalire (on the right in the video) is the middle sister, and Kili (on the left) is Kapua's daughter. Kili also competed twice for Miss Aloha Hula, and both times was first runner-up -- in 2021, she lost by only one point! Seeing them dancing together (in this impromptu style) was really a treat, and if only the youngest Dalire sister, Keola, had been there, it would have been fantastic! I do have videos of each Dalire sister performing with their own hālau or individually, but to see them all together would have been epic! Here's a little something about them if youʻre interested -- www.hawaiinewsnow.com/video/2021/07/21/dalire-sisters-be-featured-today-show-share-their-hula-legacy/
