Day 1 (Friday): The Big Island of Hawaii awaits you as you arrive in scenic and beautiful Kona, your home for the next 7 days. Airport transportation from Kona International at Keahole Airport is provided complimentary on your first day. Depending on your flight arrival time and transport time, you’ll have plenty of time to take a dip in our salt water pool, explore nearby White Sand or Kahalu Beach or relax in your comfortable accommodations. Later that evening, enjoy a Welcome Dinner featuring fresh island fruits, vegetables, fish and meats. Say “Aloha” and introduce yourselves to our family and guests for the next week. (Dinner)

Day 2 (Saturday): The day begins early at 6am, with a walk in silence to Magic Sands beach for a 1-1.5 hour morning yoga instruction, followed by a light breakfast. Afterwards, join us in our kitchen and pack a nourishing lunch to take with you for our afternoon beach excursion. In the afternoon, depending on the waves we’ll head out for a nearby Beach for a day of surfing or surf instruction. On days when there's no swells to surf, we'll Paddleboard instead. Don’t worry if you didn’t bring your board. Rentals boards are available. Swim on crystalline blue waters of Hawaii’s Big Island or relax and read a book on the white sandy beach of this gorgeous Hawaiian day. Before dinner, join us for 1-hour Vinyasa Yoga session. In the evening, watch the colorful Hawaiian sunset as we prepare a delicious dinner. “Talk story” and converse and get to know our newfound friends. (Light Breakfast, Lunch, Dinner)

Day 3 (Sunday): Depending on the weather today, we start our busiest day of the retreat early at 5:30 am with a nourishing light breakfast. Afterwards, pack a light jacket, snacks and lunch before we head out to the Buddhist Temple for a short visit. Then, we drive to Kalani for a late morning “Estatic Dance” session. We spend 3 hours hear listening as the spin different octaves of rhythm while you peel the layers of your daily life and set your mind and body free to the music. Dance the day away free from judgement as everyone’s body sways freely to the sounds. There are no drinking or drugs allowed and donations of $3-5 are welcome. In the afternoon, we head out Kahena Black Sand Beach which features spectacular black sand and an array of dolphins nearby. Please don’t take any of the black sand home with you, as the wildlife in this area are dependent on the rare sand to survive. Surf, Snorkel or venture out to the Hot Springs in this popular and scenic locale. We stop for dinner early tonight at a local restaurant (dinner on own) before heading out to Mauna Kea Summit, the highest peak in the world to watch another gorgeous Hawaiian sunset.
