Couldn't agree more about learning culture and old ways in such a class. Some hula classes are just that a dance class. This particular workshop is not only dance, but taught by Kumu is history, culture, language, music, song, and oh yes, dance/hula. You will learn about plants as they relate to hula adornments and costumes.
If you are looking stricly for language (olelo) class and on line I found this very helpful - http://ksdl.ksbe.edu/kulaiwi - an on line class open to all offered through Kamehameha Schools.
