 Soma and Tian Di 

Practicing here with the backdrop of two active volcanoes, Mauna Kea and Mauna Loa, can bring us a powerful sense of being alive. This island has the capacity to purify and cleanse our being.

第1日

Upon arrival on the land, we integrate and buffer, allowing the forces of nature to purify us. During the evening Cacao Ceremony, we unlock the power of our heart chakra, allowing our being to root with the power of the volcano and our intention to emerge.

第2-3日

Visit Pu'uhonua O Honaunau and connect with the historical story of the  place of refuge. Experience compassion and love at this sacred site as protected by the  God of Pono of the Hawaiians. Calling upon the Aumakua (ancestors) and channel stories that transcend the individual.

第4日

Rest

Go to a Kona coffee tasting and explore the places of interest on the Big Island during your leisure time.

 Somatic Community 

The residential somatic practitioners and pilot program participants are creating a rich culture and holding space for you to immerse yourself in this supportive environment. We will be co-creating and expanding each other.

第5日

Experience the power of the earth's core and embrace the silence in the face of nature's grandeur. Drive along the Chain of Craters Road to reach the significant Pu'u Loa Petroglyphs, an ancient cultural site. Begin your search for sign-nature as humans in nature.

第6日

Embark on a hike towards the center of the earth and gather energy in the basin of solidified volcanic magma. Discover the story of the volcano goddess Pele and recognize the force that unites creation and destruction. Connect with nature through physical experience and become a part of it.

第7日

Book a traditional Lomilomi massage in Hawaii and experience the soothing touch of the waves to release any tension left in your body.

Rest

 Primordial Voice 

You will practice on opening the body's tuning ability in unique natural/cultural sites, becoming messengers of the land. Embodying and expressing the voices of ancestors and channeling life source energy beyond the personal dimension.

第8日

Experience the energy of the primitive valley in Waipio, calibrate your's compass on the black sand beach, and tune with the mountains and the sea. Leave your mark through movement of writing and create a black mandala.

第9日

Standing by the sacred lake of Wai'au on top of Mauna Kea, gazing at the reflection of the sky in the water, allowing the dream world of the heavens to enter the Earth. Through continuous purification, you become a conduit.

第10日

On the final day, an improvised dance offered with the topic of "Messenger Art" put an end to our workshop, paying tribute to the Big Island of Hawaii through personal expression and gratitude for the nourishment it has provided. The ceremony crystallizes embodied knowledge and wisdom received from the land.
