Kaʻimiloa Chrisman, M.D. has nearly 30 already prepared or preparable presentations on old-time Hawaiian culture and arts topics, ranging from tattooing to tapa-making, featherwork, medical practices, instruments, etc. (see list of presentation topics below). Such presentations can be as short as 30 minutes or even workshops as long as three 8-hour days or several weekends. The depth of teaching and learning depends on the level of knowledge students already have and/or their attention span and zeal for learning. Notably, Ka’imiloa has 45 years of experience at judging the needs of his audience or participants, has done a great deal of cultural teaching, and as Kumu (master teacher) he does not tire! He invites and enjoys questions, and they often lead to more learning for all involved. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5c2ecf5f2487fd5e351eb5f1/1548564217034-DQRCZTC1R3ZA886W60WC/Kipu+Kai.jpg Programs https://www.alohaainaohawaiiinc.org/recognition daily 0.75 2026-01-04 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5c2ecf5f2487fd5e351eb5f1/1548561276737-WYVLOWUJY2A139AS4AMQ/DSCN5521+FinishedIpuHekeW.SewnTop%26FixedHandle-MadeByKa%27imiloa-A.jpg Recognition Ipu Heke with sewn top & fixed handle by Ka’imiloa https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5c2ecf5f2487fd5e351eb5f1/1548560250193-JO78GZT8YZHPZZFU221C/UOH-Hilo-lecture.jpg Recognition Kaʻimiloa teaching at the Ka ʻAha Hula ʻO Hālauaola conference University of Hawaiʻi - Hilo campus 2018 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5c2ecf5f2487fd5e351eb5f1/1548623965963-774M2BVFAAYBMG35F703/Salt%2BPonds.jpg Recognition https://www.alohaainaohawaiiinc.org/home daily 1.0 2022-02-25 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5c2ecf5f2487fd5e351eb5f1/1548558145322-GP9XHPWDEQ8MFV9KDUAY/Kaimiloa+workshop+2.jpg Home - Programs Interested in broadening your understanding of Hawaiian & other Polynesian cultures?
