A collaboration project will be held, where you can enjoy a yoga class with Jamie Eversweet Belmarez , who is certified as a yoga instructor by the White Lotus Foundation in Santa Barbara, California, and continues to work on breathing and meditation techniques to keep the body more comfortable, as well as a lei (haku lei) making class with Yukiko, who was directly instructed by Auntie Maile, a transmitter of the Kumu Haku Lei from the Big Island of Hawaii and known as a preserver of Hawaiian history!

Yoga is performed in the vast natural surroundings of Banyan Bridge, where you can feel nature with all your senses as you listen to the fresh breeze, sunlight, and chirping of the birds. The hakurei is handmade by DECO Yukiko using fresh local flowers carefully selected. The climax of the experience is a visit to Aura Cave, one of the three great spots in the world that is known only to those in the know. Why not enjoy two days of experiencing nature and culture that can only be found on the Big Island of Hawaii, healing your mind and body, and returning to your true self?

During your two-day nature program, you will have free time to explore the grounds of Banyan Bridge.

You can also enjoy fresh juice made from fruits grown in Hawaii and macadamia nuts harvested within Banyan Bridge as snacks. Please experience this special program that will heal both your mind and body.
