Moana in Real Life Part II: The True Voyaging History That Inspired the Film 🌅🛶  👇🏽 Save this post to honor the history that shaped our modern voyages! If you missed Part I from Tuesday, be sure to check it out here or @kamoauli 🤙🏽 The magic of Moana isn’t just a movie—it is deeply rooted in a real-world cultural awakening. Before our traditional Tongan voyaging canoe, Kamoauli, was rebuilt in Hawaiʻi to operate as a social enterprise, she had a purpose: to proudly greet the Hōkūleʻa on her global voyage over a decade ago.  The Hōkūleʻa has an even deeper history, when in 1976, she successfully sailed from Hawaiʻi to Tahiti using only traditional, non-instrument wayfinding, proving the ancestors’ brilliance. This sparked a massive Cultural Renaissance across the Pacific demonstrating that the ancestors were master ocean navigators. 🌟 On a recent sail, Jazlyn @noelanimusic brought this profound history alive. To tailor these deep historical weights for kids, she beautifully wove the story of Moana together with the real legacy of 1976. By connecting the Disney magic they love to the actual history of Pacific navigation, she showed just how brilliant of an educator she is 📚🌱 This very legacy is what drives Kamoauli today. Operating as a social enterprise, our commercial charters directly fund free, hands-on educational voyages for local school-aged children. We don’t just sail; we perpetuate culture. Mahalo to @therock and @sevenbucksprod for continuing to amplify the voices, history, and unmatched legacy of Oceania to the global stage.  💬 Comment “VOYAGE” below, and we will send you the details to join us out on the water! #MoanaInRealLife #Hokulea1976 #oahufamilyactivities #Kamoauli #Wayfinding

I loved photographing this ‘Kanikapila!’ feature for Hana Hou! The Hawaiian Airlines Magazine @hanahoumag. Kanikapilas are informal island music gatherings, a tradition in Hawai’i, for friends and family to get together and have jam sessions where the melodies are spontaneous and everyone is invited to play along. Being surrounded by friendly faces playing tunes and sharing a musical groove together was so special. I had the joy of being a part of the talented Garza ‘ohana @imuagarza gathering with hula, the bluegrass scene in Lanikai, an impromptu jam with the Mana Maoli youth collective @mana_maoli, and Waipa Purdy’s ‘Kanikapila Group Therapy’ in Moloka’i. Thank you so much to everyone who welcomed me and let me photograph them jamming together, all of the music was just so good. 🙏🎶✨ Photographing and listening to all these awesome kanikapilas brought me back to my roots as a keiki growing up around jam sessions. My mom played guitar and sang and we always had musician friends over at our house jamming together. My uncles Eddie and Derald Kam could play every Hawaiian song requested and always welcomed everyone to play along. My uncle Eddie passed away recently, so it’s really special to have the last photo in the feature honoring his spirit, taken years ago at a classic bbq at our home. 💙 The feature also includes a photo of the legendary late Dennis Kamakahi @naukilo, playing with Stephen Inglis @stepheninglis in Kalaupapa, a photo I took on assignment while they were touring on Moloka’i over 10 years ago. Working on this project had so many full circle moments for me and I am so grateful that this story I pitched is now featured in the June/July issue Hana Hou! Check it out if you’re flying @hawaiianairlines this month. I hope everyone can find some moments this summer to slow down and listen to live music. Mahalo nui loa. #kanikapila #hawaiimusic #jamsessions #hawaiianairlines

Moana in Real Life Part 1: The Legacy of Oceania and the Next Generation 👇🏽 Save this post to remember the true history behind the magic!  Aloha! 🌺 On our living voyaging canoe, Kamoauli, our mission is to honor the deep, interconnected heritage of Oceania. Originally built in Tonga to proudly greet the Hōkūleʻa, Kamoauli was later rebuilt right here in Hawaiʻi. Today, she operates as a dedicated social enterprise, where our charters directly fund free, hands-on educational voyages for local school-aged children. If you are looking for an authentic O‘ahu family activity that connects your kids to the true spirit of the islands, this is it.  During a recent sail, we had a group of keiki on board who were completely captivated by our traditional voyaging foods—specifically learning the deep cultural importance of kalo, and how this sacred sustenance sustained the ancestors across thousands of miles of open ocean. 🌱🛶 To beautifully bridge Pasifika history with modern magic, Jazlyn @noelanimusic wove a brilliant connection between our voyaging foods and the movie Moana. The moment she invoked the story they all know and love while demonstrating the traditional kalo process, it took their already buzzing excitement to a whole new level, making the spirit of exploration come alive right before their eyes. ✨ Mahalo to @therock and @sevenbucksprod for shining a massive global spotlight on Oceania and Polynesian cultures. By bringing these epic voyaging stories to life on the global screen, you help inspire the next generation of navigators. 🎬 MORE REAL-LIFE MOANA: Ready for the next chapter?

He Uʻi⁠ ⁠ "This mele is a sweet love song capturing the beauty of attraction. ⁠ ⁠ Mele Hawaiʻi and Hula have such an important bond because it brings people together.  Which is why I love this mele, because it always invites people to come up and hula"⁠ ⁠ -@noelanimusic
