Welcome to 'Ohana Arts Studio!
Ma ka hana ka `ike
Knowledge is gained through experience
(literally, "in working one learns")
Aloha, my name is Lisa Noelani Robbins. I offer affordable sewing, Hawaiian quilting, etiquette, basic crochet, and arts and crafts classes. I also offer Polynesian dance lessons and performances via my Kinderhula and Polynesian Dance Studio divisions. This summer I offer sewing, Hawaiian quilting, and Polynesian dance classes in Newport News.
Please feel free to browse this website for information on me and what services and classes I offer.
I am currently the only teacher/instructor in the Hampton Roads area who teaches to children, teens, and adults using the Kids Can Sew & Fashion Design program and the You Can Make It program. Learn using professional programs with successful, progressive curriculums. I am also the only person in Hampton Roads who teaches Hawaiian quilting which I learned from my kupuna (my "respected elders").
I am also the first and only "islandgirl" in the Hampton Roads area who offer these unique lessons and special events. :] I would love to share my aloha and islandgirl spirit with you.
I want to extend a warm aloha to the readers of the Daily Press! Special thanks for a wonderful article by Prue Salasky and photography by Diane Cebula. I would also like to thank Theresa Little for her talent in makeup artistry and all of my students for being the wonderful dancers that they are. Thanks also to my children, my husband, my parents, my brothers, and my twin sister and her husband for their love and support. Thanks to my kupuna. Thank you all for letting me spread the aloha spirit one stitch and one song at a time. Diane Cebul
Aloha,
