Kirt,
Here's a news story about the passing of a hula instructor, it delves into her family history, and how she developed a style of hula uniquely her own. It's not specifically about Hawaiian religious practices, but there may be parallels.

I get where you are going with this
There are legitimate Hawaiian practitioners, just as there are in other religions or other walks of life. And how do you know? Can you know? Today the Catholic Pope defrocked a Cardinal, who was as legit as they come, he had gone through the training every step of the way, and yet, no one who knows what he did would now call him a practioner of Christian theology.
Don't throw the baby out with the bath water. But don't follow the bath water down the drain either.
