Dances of Universal Peace  

SATURDAY MARCH 9TH! 
with Amara Karuna and friends 

 7-8:30 PM   Laakea community. 

Dances of Universal Peace (Sufi dances) are easily learned spiritual
folk dances from all traditions, with gentle movements that even
"non-dancers" can greatly enjoy.  Singing sacred, ancient phrases
creates a full body healing vibration, and when conscious movement is
added, these become powerful spiritual practices.  Each dance will be
fully taught, no experience is necessary.  These are interactive and
participatory, not a performance. Kids are welcome - if participatory.
Kids who need more attention and become a continued distraction will be
asked to leave. 

donation $5 to $10 appreciated    call Amara at 808-982-6755  for more
info.

  LA'AKEA COMMUNITY TOUR 
WITH ANIKO 
Where:  La'akea Community, meet at Main House
When:  SATURDAY MARCH 16TH AND APRIL 6TH,  @ 9:30 am
Cost:  Donation, suggested $5-15 if you can. No one turned away. 
More Info: _call Aniko for more info at 214-4601_

Description: Come join us for an introduction to permaculture and our
community lifestyle!  Take a fun and informative tour of our land with
Aniko, including our organic gardens, alternative building methods, off
grid solar system, animals and orchards. Learn some basics of
permaculture concepts and how we apply them in action.

We are a committed group of people working together closely in
community, on our 24 acres organic permaculture farm. We integrate the
social aspects of sustainability into daily life: how to live together
with honesty, love and peace, and share power and leadership.  We do not
have one central leader, but instead share the cost of the land and the
leadership equally.  This is a great time to tour the land and ask
questions about community. 

 LET US KNOW IF YOU ARE COMING.  Thanks!

Authentic Relating Games 

SUNDAY MARCH 17TH! 
with Lynn, Shine, Patrick and Kana 

 5:30-8:30 PM   Laakea community. 

What is this!? What are Authentic Relating Games?

Authenticity is acting and speaking in alignment with our inner
feelings, desires, and needs--our truth. Authentic Relating (AR) is the
practice of bringing our truth into connection with others', so that we
can weave a more rich human experience.

Authentic Relating Games are an easy and fun way to introduce AR into
daily life. They can help us experience deeper connections, boost
empathy, see the world through others' eyes, and understand ourselves
better so that we can enjoy life more. The games are fun, highly
interactive partner and group exercises that demonstrate and explore AR,
and getting to know yourself better while at the same time learning to
see and appreciate more about everyone you connect with. These games are
NOT board games like 'Chutes & Ladders' or 'Checkers' (they're better
😉).

Authentic also means that there is no cookie-cutter mold for how you
"should" be or what relating "should look like". Everyone is a complete
universe unto themselves, has a unique style, personality, and integrity
that is perfectly them, and everyone is perfect and amazing as they are
(including in their belief that they aren't.) 

Suggested donation $15. 

Join us for a FUN night of connection! Be the Authentic YOU!
Please plan to arrive early to park and walk to community room.
Doors will close promptly at 5:30. 

To get to La' Akea community, take Highway 130. Go one mile past Leilani
and turn right on Alaili. Follow Alaili and make a right at the driveway
at the La' akea sign. Park in the first parking area and walk up to the
main house. Bring a flashlight for the walk up the driveway

Aloha! See you on March 17th!
Your hosts,
Lynn, Shine, Patrick and Kana
