Coaching is key!

Apr26

We had a super productive coaching session with Mark Conching this week as part of our preparation for our Sweet Adelines International Region 12 contest in Reno next month.

Mark was wearing his Honolulu Marathon finishers shirt, which felt appropriate, because preparing for contest really is a marathon, not a sprint!

Practice, practice, practice is key to getting that blend of barbershop harmony just right. Thank you so much, Mark, for holding us to account and for supporting our director, Chris, with your insights.

And wow, NLL ladies! You worked hard and it shows! 🎶❤️!

It’s on! Come on and try your luck at our BINGO fundraiser!

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!

Feb14

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.

Books, music, and Santa spirit — a perfect combo!
