Movemeant destination
Led by our cultural advisor, Kumu ‘Auli’i Aweau-Teves, the 3-day retreat features hands-on learning activities with Hawaiian cultural practitioners, aloha ʻāina, land stewardship, hula + oli and healing sessions.
o`ahu | February 15th-17th, 2025
Learn about the interconnectedness of ʻāina (land), kanaka / kamaʻāina and malihini (visitors), and explore sustainable ways for a collective future rooted in indigenous practices. Our vision is to address generational and personal growth through our relationship with the space around us, and create a sustainable path for the next seven generations.
