The Kanaka Maoli, warriors and fishermen, aborigine of these lands where the rhythm of life is in perfect harmony with the body and the mind, where everything follows the harmonious movement of the ocean waves, the Hula dance accompanied with traditional music, the gestures of martial arts and the ancient art of the Lomi massages. Their language, which today does not have any official acknowledgment, resembles in some way that of the Tahitians or the Maori from New Zealand.
