Chanting Workshops

LIVE and In Person 

During these live sessions, Kumu Kaipo will personally share her concepts of how Hawaiian Chanting connects a person to the natural environments around them and creates a healing environment for all who take part.

During the workshop(s), participants will also be connected with a traditional chant.  If participants want to, they will also have opportunities to learn how to play (pa`i) the gourd (ipu) for this chant (oli).
