Dashing Haberdashery in Four-Part Harmony!
We had another great Wednesday evening rehearsal yesterday and another fun theme night for those who love a dress-up challenge. Enjoy this brief clip and several of our ladies rocking excellent headwear!
Hats off to women’s barbershop!

It’s time for a BINGO fundraiser!
If you like games of chance and the spirit of community, come out and have fun with Na Leo Lani as we play B-I-N-G-O and raise funds for our upcoming Sweet Adelines Region 12 competition in Reno!

What: BINGO!

Love one another
What better way to feel the love in these difficult times than a Valentine’s Day-themed rehearsal celebrating the human capacity for harmony? Share the fun of our impromptu exchange quartets in the video clip below.
Happy Valentine’s Day — may love grow and harmony flourish in this country and around the world!

Wigging out!
Continuing a tradition we began during the pandemic to keep things lively and ourselves amused in our online Zoom rehearsals, Na Leo Lani marks every rehearsal with a different theme. Not everyone participates every time, but that’s okay, because there’s a theme week for everyone — like “National Big Wig Day” on January 30!
If you are looking for a lighthearted community of women who are serious about singing, join us for a rehearsal! We meet weekly on Wednesday evenings at the Mo’ili’ili Hongwanji. Find out more on our Join Us page.



Aloha ʻoe, Kaori!
We were so sad to say goodbye in January to our fantastic baritone, Kaori, who is moving back to Japan. Thank you for sharing your voice with us and all best wishes on your next adventures!


Birthday gals
Congratulations to our November, December, and January birthdays gals on another full circle around the sun. May you have many more years ahead!

Thanks for a great holiday season
We had a busy holiday line-up this past month and loved every minute. Thanks to all who joined us in song and in the audience! See below for some lovely photos of our Kahala Mall performance on December 20, 2025 — and many thanks to James Miura for taking them.






Ringing in the holidays with gigs galore!
Na Leo Lani has been busy singing all around Honolulu this season, with crowd-pleasing gigs at local venues like this one (see pic) at the Hawai’i Kai Public Library. Upcoming events include free performances at the Kaimuki Public Library and Kahala Mall. See our Calendar of Events page for details, or visit this page for announcements!

Another reason to join us in song!
According to this recent article in The Conversation, the health benefits of collective singing go well beyond mere entertainment; it can help reinforce balance and even mitigate the effects of Parkinson’s! What’s more, the social benefits extend to enhanced sense of community engagement, generosity, and joy. The author writes, “Group singing provides a mood boost and improves overall well-being. Increased levels of neurotransmitters such as dopamine, serotonin and oxytocin during singing may promote feelings of social connection and bonding.”
Who couldn’t use a mood boost in these difficult times? Come join a rehearsal and feel the energy for yourself.
