He Inoa No Nani 'Ekolu - Papa Hehi Sound Demo

Introducing the first non-stringed instrument produced by Kanileʻa, the Papa Hehi. This native Hawaiian Hula implement predates the ʻukulele by hundreds of years, and is an implement in traditional Hula. In Hawaiian, Papa means “board” and Hehi means “to step on it”, and in English it is sometimes known as a Treadle Board.
Using processes modified from building our other instruments, we work with Kumu Hula Cody Pueo Pata to ensure tradition is honored and respected for these beautiful implements.
