Circle that Holds

Two years since the Maui fires, and life shifted for so many of us.
We gather on 8/8, beneath the radiant Aquarius moon— a moon of we, of collective breath and remembering— in the luminous corridor of Lion’s Gate,  portal of courage, of heart, of soul-awakening.

We gather to move what words cannot carry.  To honor what was lost.  To stand with what still aches.  To lift what is ready to rise.

This is not a dance of forgetting.  This is a dance of remembrance, resilience, and connection— a circle of breath, of beat, of body— woven for Maui, for each other,  the ʻāina that nourishes and supports us.

You are invited—just as you are.  Whether you come to grieve, to ground, to release, or to be held,  this space welcomes you.

Let the rhythm hold what’s heavy.  Let your feet remember the way home.  Let us become the circle that holds.

At the heart of Kabba’s work is a simple devotion: to strengthen the river of life that flows through each of us, to listen where the currents have slowed, to help the waters move freely again.
Through acupuncture, traditional healing arts, music, and the language of movement, he tends the spaces where vitality, resilience, and connection are born.
Conscious dance — ancient bridge between body, heart, imagination, and soul — is offered as a wide and welcoming doorway. Every body is valued. Every feeling, thought, and human attribute belongs. We move and include.
Through Dancing Medicine, an Open Floor Dance practice, Kabba offers sacred space for movement, for arriving fully and remembering. Here, the dance becomes a way to cultivate a deeper connection with ourselves, each other, community, and Spirit.
Musician, poet, healer... student of silence,
Kabba integrates practices that invite freedom of expression, steady the heart, and nourish the collective spirit. In this space, movement is more than expression — it is medicine, it is belonging, it is home.

Maui Access to Mindful Movement (MAMM) seeks to spread awareness of, and access to, the physical, mental, emotional and social benefits of group practices such as martial arts, yoga, cultural movement, dance, and nature immersion. MAMM’s mission is to show more Maui residents how mindful movement isn't just physical fitness; it's a catalyst for unlocking one’s potential through focus, awareness, and self-regulation. It is an opportunity for social interaction in an environment of discipline, shared principles and common goals. These community activities can be deeply therapeutic. They bring us out of isolation and give us safe space to move together. When we move with intention, breathe in rhythm, and grow together, something more than physical well being happens – fear transforms into courage, isolation into belonging, and trauma into resilience. Blending physical activity with mental presence, helps us calm compulsiveness and mindfully channel our energy; developing healthier social interactions and family dynamics. MAMM seeks to bring mindful movement to more Maui families.
