Na Pua ‘Olohe was founded by Kahu Abraham Kawai’i in 1989 to share his knowledge of Hawaiian Principles and culture. He shared these principles with other cultures during several years of traveling around the world. Eventually, he settled on Kauai.
He felt that the wealth inherent in Hawaiian culture should be shared outside its cultural framework, and be equally valuable to all. He maintained: “It is not about the differences in cultures, it is about the human spirit–and we all share this spirit.”
Our workshops, seminars, lectures, and consultations are offered in a variety of physical, psychological, and spiritual formats, and are all based upon ancient Hawaiian Kahuna principles. Our teachings provide the perspective necessary to build character and dignity through the principles of nature and our own natural intelligence.
Na Pua ‘Olohe was created and fully sanctioned by Kahu Abraham Kawai’i and holds within its teachings the dignity, knowledge and commitment that he passed on. People from all over the world have visited our workshops to gain a better understanding of themselves and their surrounding, with stunning results.
Truth and perceived limits are but a temporary framework or stepping-stone to the next.
