Hawaiian tradition
Aloha spirit practice
Hawaiian tradition encompasses the cultural practices, beliefs, and customs of Native Hawaiians, including hula dance, lei-making, surfing, and the spirit of aloha—a philosophy of love, peace, and compassion toward others.
These traditions often blend spiritual reverence for the land and sea with communal values: The luau honors Hawaiian tradition.
Many practices were suppressed during colonization but have seen revival since the late twentieth century.
