2 Min Hula on the Beach Video

It's been ages since I did a post featuring hula dance, so I thought today I would share one! :) 


2 MINUTE HULA- iHula Hawaii 

This is a brand-new video (uploaded today) by Lynn from iHula Hawaii, where she teaches a 2 minute routine with basic hula moves that anyone can do. 

It was filmed on an empty beach (my favourite kind, lol). Beautiful scenery! :)



I've wanted to learn hula dance for years but there are hardly any classes in my area. I actually mentioned it in a post sharing Hawaiian and Tahitian dance back in 2011! There were some classes several years ago in Sussex but a bit far away for me to easily get there. 

I started belly dancing in 2006 and I am still dancing these days, but not as often. I no longer go to regular classes but do workshops and classes when I can. I do have to be careful of my knees though (have had to for quite a while now), so a hula class may not be suitable.  But at least I can have a go by watching online videos!

P.S. They're going through a difficult time in Hawaii right now, with wildfires on Maui (caused by dry weather conditions and high winds from Hurricane Dora) having  killed at least 55 people and hundreds more said to be missing. Also residents and animals have been displaced from their homes. 

Lynn shared this link to the Maui County site on her YouTube community page: https://www.mauicounty.gov/

It has updates on the fires. If you're able to donate or know others who can, here is a useful link: https://www.mauicounty.gov/CivicAlerts.aspx?AID=12656

25th Anniversary of Mariah Carey's Butterfly Album

My favourite singer Mariah Carey recently released a 25th anniversary edition of her 6th studio album Butterfly. The original album was released on 16th September 1997 and featured songs such as her hit single Honey, The Roof and My All. It was actually the first album I ever bought (on cassette tape, lol) and I still consider it one of my fave MC albums. :) Butterfly was the first album that Mariah had more control over and it is R'n'B, rather than the pop (and later pop/R'n'B) of her previous releases. It also has pop and hip hop influences.  The expanded edition contain 8 extra tracks (the original standard edition has 12)- a duet version of Whenever You Call with Brian McKnight , a new take on The Roof featuring Brandy , live versions of Butterfly and My All, acapella versions of Fourth of July and Outside, an Amorphous Anniversary Club Mix of Butterfly (with DJ Amorphous ) and a remix of Honey (Another Taste of Honey David Morales Mix). I had previously heard the

Debut XG Mini Album

Japanese girl group XG have released their 1st mini album. It's called NEW DNA and was released on 27th September. XG (whose name is short for Xtraordinary Girls) made their debut in March last year and have brought out 7 singles so far- Tippy Toes, MASCARA, LEFT RIGHT/SHOOTING STAR double single), GVRL GANG , TGIF, NEW DANCE and PUPPET SHOW. The first 3 songs (or 4 including the double single) aren't on the mini album. The concept behind NEW DNA is that of being a "new species" free from conventions and limitations .  Although the group is Japanese, their creation was inspired by Korean music and they are based in South Korea. They have released songs in English so far and have been described as a global group and "X-pop". NEW DNA consists of 6 tracks- HESONO, X-GENE, GVRL GANG, TGIF, NEW DANCE and PUPPET SHOW. It is an R'n'B/pop mini album with influences from other genres, such as K-pop, dance and hip hop. My favourite song is PUPPET SHOW. I al
