"Iʻve visited Maui five times and I havenʻt experienced Traditional Hawaiian Games until now!
The cultural games are unique and made my visit to Maui even more enjoyable for me and my family!
Traditional Hawaiian Games should be in every hotel!"
- Malahini from California
"Iʻm a native Hawaiian and I never had the opportunity to play my cultural games while growing up.
Since MAʻA came to my school, Iʻm more proud to be native Hawaiian!"
- Keiki from Middle School
"Uncle, when you guys coming back?"
- Keiki from Community Workshop
