Japan Alaka‘i

Saki Ozawa

Saki Ozawa lives in Atsugi Kanagawa, Japan. She dances at Hālau Nā Mamo O Pu’uanahulu while working a part-time job.

Hula has always been a part of Sakiʻs life ever since her grandmother taught her at the age of 3. Saki found an article about the Hālau Nā Mamo O Pu’uanahulu Japan school in a magazine and felt that this was fate, and wanted to deepen her knowledge of hula.

“I am truly glad that I joined Hālau Nā Mamo O Pu’uanahulu. Nā Kumu has given me a lot of knowledge of the Hawaiian culture, and of giving Aloha.”
