This study, called 'Ike Kupuna, is testing a hula-based program called Ola Mau i ka Hula. This program involves hula lessons and education about Alzheimer's disease and related dementias (ADRD). The study aims to see if this program can improve risk factors for ADRD, such as blood pressure, A1c (a measure of blood sugar), and cholesterol, as well as cognitive complaints and function over 12 months. You may be able to join if you are a Native Hawaiian or other Pacific Islander, between 50 and 75 years old, and have subjective cognitive impairment (SCI) or mild cognitive impairment (MCI). The study is currently unclear about its recruitment status.
