Videos of Local-Style

Welcome to our collection of videos of Local-Style. Way more than a lifestyle, local-style is about the Great Divide here–less a matter of race than did you go to school here. This reflects the determination of our community to cling to an imperiled lifestyle. It’s not just the Hawaiian that’s in peril, it’s the local way of life… sometimes summed up as the “aloha spirit”.

E hele me ka pu’olo. – Always take an offering with you. (Make every person place or condition better than you left it always. Wherever you go, always take something with you.)
