This is your chance to fulfill your bucket-list dream of swimming alongside beautiful wild dolphins, giant sea turtles, magical manta rays and possibly whales as you experience the profound and mysterious healing energies of the ocean and its sea life. This is a unique opportunity to fully immerse yourself into the healing vibrations of the dolphins and humpback whales of Hawaii. February and March are the only times of year the Humpback whales are around as this is their migration time. You wil l l ear n h ow to com m u n icate with th e Dol ph in s, H u m pback wh al es, M an ta Rays an d Tu r tl es. To accompany the dolphin?s healing energy, there will also be the opportunity and space for profound inner work, starting with a very special full moon meditation and ceremony at the Big Island?s volcano, to capture the magical power of the moon at its zenith. Led by a local Kumu (teacher) this is a wonderful moment for deep transformation, as you release the old energies to allow in the powerful new beginnings.

6 You r Ret r eat H ost Jem m a Pr i t t i e Jemma Prittie is the Founder and CEO of Solar Events and has been running events since She is a trained animal communicator and has been swimming with wild dolphins in various locations all over the world for many years and coming to Hawaii to be with the dolphins for the last 20 years. She has a life long passion for dolphins and other marine life. She has worked with autistic children, helping them in the water with wild dolphins, and has experience of helping nervous swimmers overcome any fears they might have. Jemma's knowledge of the dolphins habits and lifestyles is extensive, and her deep connection with them will truly enhance your experience. She loves to speak about dolphins, so do ask her any questions you might have! You r Gu est Sp eak er Joan Ocean In 1978, Joan Ocean first met John C. Lilly, MD, cetacean researcher, and felt very moved by the information he shared. Joan felt a connection with Dr. Lilly and his extraterrestrial experiences that seemed to stimulate her eventual relationship with the dolphins. The dolphins then began to contact Joan through meditation and expanded consciousness, but being a non-swimmer, she did not yet enter the water to meet them. After meeting Jean-Luc Bozzili and experiencing his dolphin-inspired, multimedia art presentation, Joan learned to swim and began swimming with cetaceans in oceans and rivers in many countries. When a California Gray whale came close to the island shores of British Columbia, and looked directly into her eyes, experienced a communication between herself and the whale that changed her life forever. She understood that cetaceans around the world are trying to communicate with us. A Master of Science in Counselling Psychology, Joan Ocean is a psychologist, shaman and scientist who creates environments that support people in transition from one lifestyle, one dimension, and one physical form to another. You r K u m u Eh u l an i St ep h an y My name is Ehulani Stephany. I am Kumu Hula (teacher of hula), Ali'i Kahuna Nui(high priestess).

I have been teaching hula since 1991 and was blessed to have studied under 14 different kumu hula, numerous Hawaiian practitioners and na kahuna nui(high priest's). I developed my own style of hula by combining the styles, mana'o (thoughts), information, traditions and protocol of all my na kumu (teachers). Sharing the rich and deep learning of the Hawaiian culture along with the feeling of the true ALOHA SPIRIT.

7 H ow To Get To H aw ai i : You should plan on arriving at least one day before the first day of the trip so you will be fresh and ready to begin your adventure. You will fly into Kona-Keahole International Airport, airport code KOA. K eep i n M i n d : Experience the powerful energy of the live volcano, the diverse nature of Hawaii's underwater "rainforest" and the home of spinner dolphins, giant manta rays, sea turtles and the magnificent migrating humpback whales. We?re connecting with and observing wild animals in pure nature so we can never guarantee whale and dolphin sightings and/or the quality of the sightings but we'll do our very best to provide amazing encounters based on the years of knowledge and experience of China Mike and Jemma Prittie. Open your mind, let go of expectations, and allow your connection with the whales and dolphins to flow naturally.
