I recently took up hula dancing. Yes, hula dancing! It's always been something I've admired and have been interested in learning how to do. So when some friends invited me to join them for a night at the studio they go to, I couldn't pass it up.

The studio is called Leilua Hula, and is located in Rancho Santa Margarita. Being only about 10 minutes away from where we live, both my husband (Tony) and I went to check it out. We jumped right in the first night, not knowing what to expect. But hey, it's not a spectator sport, right? The class we attended that night was a "hularobics" class. And let me tell you, it can be quite a workout. Well, from that first night, both Tony and I were hooked.

I brought my camera to class one night, and got some photos of the guys' class that follows my own. Here are the boys in action (Tony is there in the white tank top):

A few of the girls were practicing their moves on the sidelines:

And here are a few shots of the studio itself:

While there, I was also able to get some quick shots of Lorna's adorable granddaughter:
