Whale Song Immersion
Feb 23- March 1, 2025
Maui, HI
Do you hear the call?
The humpbacks are arriving to Maui from Alaka to give birth and nurse their calves in the warm and shallow waters.
Would you like to join?
We will swim in an ocean bursting of whale song, kayak with breaching humpbacks and experience the incredible thrill of surfing. We will explore rivers, waterfalls, jungles and forests, all before ascending Haleakalā; Maui’s 10,000 ft volcano.

About the Immersion
Would you like to experience a sound bath… in an ocean ringing with whale song?
Mama’s will be birthing their calves in the shallow waters and the male ‘singers’ will be sending their eerily beautiful songs thousands of miles through the deep blue sea..
To experience the vibrations of a whale song penetrate your body will cleanse your DNA and change your life forever. I can promise you, I am a different human since my first time sharing the ocean with these gentle giants. I did my best to describe my first encounter with these beings, here.
On this week-long adventure, we will immerse ourselves in the frequencies of whale song and have the privilege of kayaking amongst breaching mamas, papas and adorable baby whales, learning to breach as well. The excitement, the amazement, the awe and wonder that comes alive when witnessing, hearing and coexisting with these whales is truly an unforgettable experience, and something I deeply believe can serve and contribute towards a more loving, respectful and caring humanity.
In the midst of our whale song immersion, we will have the opportunity for private surf lessons. Surfing is not just a sport and not just an activity. Surfing is a platform to learn about our own strengths, our fears, our emotions, relationships and our environment. To learn to surf is to learn to move in tune with the rhythms of life; to find balance within our mind, body and spirit. To surf is to harmonize with time, with wind, with the coral, ourselves and the many generations of people who came before us who surfed these waves. Classes are taught supportively, safely, patientiely, and professionally. I was blessed to work with the best surf school on island, Bully’s Surf School, and give thanks to have been welcomed in by such an incredibly talented and loving ‘ohana. This is a tremendously empowering and wildly joyful experience! Nobody is forced to surf. We encourage you to at least try paddling out to feel the ocean and the currents in this way, but everything is voluntary and there are alternative options as well. I have had the joy of succesfully coaching 5 year olds and 75 year olds. Both were able to learn to ride their first waves and left the ocean with huge smiles on their faces.
After kayaking, surfing, caring for the land (malama aina) and enjoying many sunsets, rivers and waterfalls, we will finish our adventure ascending Haleakalā, or “House of the Rising Sun.” From near the summit we will get to hike into the crater of this 10,000 ft volcano and experience a world unlike any other. The stillness is dense and all of our previous experiences with the island will begin weaving themselves through our being. The whale songs will still be ringing and the waves will still be washing through us. From the depths of the ocean to above the clouds, this is a moment clarity, of learning, of receiving and experiencing the powerfully peaceful stillness of this mountain.
You are warmly invited! To share these experiences is an absolute honor for me. I have been blessed to have the chance to live on Maui and befriend the waters, the coastlines, the mammals and mountains here. I am constantly in awe of this place; there is so much to learn, so much I don’t know and this is what brings me alive. This is an invitation to share the magic of the unknown… Into a place of deep curiosity and hopefully, into a place of great respect and reverence for the land which we are walking on, waters we swim through and for the people who live here and have lived here long before us. If that curiosity is calling you in, please join. It will be an honor to share the adventure together, and one that will feed your soul for a lifetime.
