Aloha Ladies 🌸

You are cordially invited to a Holistic Wellness Day dedicated to devotional pleasure and sacred rest.

A day where all of you, mind, body, spirit and emotions, will be touched, nourished, and honored.

We’ll begin with a Cacao Ritual, featuring a special choco I’ve crafted just for this occasion.
From there, I will guide you into a full body scan, a moment to tune in to what’s truly alive within you.
Whether it’s joy or grieve…let yourself be surprised. Whatever arises, we’ll meet it with unconditional loving awareness.

Throughout the day we’ll move gently between practices, with short breaks, deep breaths, and long exhales.

A delicious lunch will be provided, along with herbal teas and fresh water.

Together, we’ll explore:

  • Breathwork & Mudras (yoga of the hands)
  • Gentle Yoga (can be done strongly)
  • Dance & Tarot
  • Conscious Dreaming & Deep Rest

Intention

The intention of the day is simple: Unwind. Release. Enjoy. BE-COMING YOU.

This is a women-only space, offering the sacred support and expressing gratitude we often miss in our daily lives, lives filled with tasks, ambitions, comparisons, and other mind chatter.

The mind is a horrible master and a great servant:)

For whom:

  • All curious hearts welcome
  • No experience in yoga, breathwork or dance is needed
  • Willingness to unwind, be playful, and not take yourself too seriously is magnificently necessary

Testimonials

Cacao Ceremony

My 1st ever cacao ceremony, I had no idea what to expect, all i know was that i arrived slightly nervous and yet full of curiosity and eager anticipation of the unknown. 

It turned out to be a beautiful inner journey, filling me with a mix of immense calm and inner well being while I at one point became so overwhelmed with a sense if gratitude and unconditional love that I couldn’t prevent cleansing tears from washing over me, culminating in profound calm and sparkly  dreaminess that stayed with me for the rest of the day! 🤩

I also loved Lahas musical selections for the journey, making it all the more enjoyable!

My aha moment was to not throw the baby out with the bath water as far as thinking yoga was not for me! Now i would like to be open to and try doing yoga!

Yoga & Cacao Ceremony

Yoga with LAHA in a breathtaking shala space surrounded by nature was my SUNDAY service. From the moment the class began, her energy felt perfectly in sync with the practice—calm, grounded, and full of intention. Her breathwork guidance flowed like rhythmic music, enhanced by the soulful sounds of local Hawaiian melodies, creating an immersive and healing atmosphere.

She led the class with such clarity and presence, offering personal adjustments that were thoughtful and supportive. I felt both seen and safe, which allowed me to deepen into the practice in a really meaningful way.

Her cacao ceremony was especially powerful. She held the space with so much grace and intention, inviting a real sense of connection and reflection. The ceremonial chocolates she created were beautiful, both visually and energetically. Every class with her felt like a gift, and I’m so grateful for the experience.

Until we meet again. Mahalo.

Laha’s class provides an opportunity to experience yourself with deep introspective prompts, in a safe and nurturing environment. The flow of the class was gentle but also allows for challenging yourself as you dive into your own personal experience of your body and spirit. I attended the spring solstice cacao ritual with the intention of moving into this season with fresh motivation and energy.

Private Healing Yoga sessions

Beautiful as life can be someone comes along and makes it even more exquisite. Laha gave me private Pawvang Mukthasana Yoga sessions that relieved pain in my hip. Caused by a fall followed by an operation eight months earlier. Laha’s assured gentle manner, has lead me to a practice that is realigning and strengthening my bones and muscles.

Miraculously, the deep pain in my hip, which caused me to limb, was gone in our first session. I am joyfully getting better practicing what Laha taught me.

Being 79 years old, the big bonus: Laha’s teaching has cured my incontinence.

YOGA & CACAO CEREMONY

Diep ontspannen, zacht geraakt en liefdevol verbonden

Alle Yoga workshops en cacao ceremonies die ik bij Sunyoung heb gedaan (4x een halve dag) waren zeer ontspannend, weldadig en inspirerend. Na de yoga en de cacao voelde ik me elke keer blij en rustig in balans.

Effect:
Yoga met Sunyoung heeft mij elke keer een positief gevoel gegeven, en zin om op zo’n weldadige manier met mijn lichaam om te gaan. Het is fijn om nieuwe dingen te proberen en mijn lichaam te verkennen en ook enigszins uit te dagen, zonder dat ik het gevoel heb dat er druk op ligt.

De yoga met Sunyoung heeft me in prettige verbinding met mijn lichaam gebracht. Het is goed om mijn hele lichaam te voelen en te ervaren, en mijn lichaam op een liefdevolle manier een beetje uit te dagen, te verkennen wat mijn lichaam kan en wat goed voor me is.

De lichamelijke ontspanning en inspanning die de yogalessen me brachten openden ook deuren naar mijn emoties.

Een heel mooi gevoel en inzicht was dat ik, tijdens de cooling down van de dag, tot tranen geroerd was over dankbaarheid voor mijn lichaam – en dan niet over hoe het eruitzag, of hoe goed het werkte, maar puur dankbaarheid dat ik een lichaam heb. Dit kwam in een golf over mij heen en voelde heel goed. Dit was ook een inzicht waar ik later nog vaak aan terugdacht. Een fijne manier om naar mijn lichaam te kijken, in plaats van een kritische blik.

Stijl van lesgeven:
Het fijne aan Sunyoung’s manier van yoga delen met beginners en gevorderden dat ze je aan de hand neemt, met mildheid, liefdevolle vriendelijkheid en ook humor laat zien hoe ik mijn lichaam de bewegingen kan laten doen. Haar stijl is niet prestatiegericht, maar ze nodigt je wel uit om dingen uit te proberen. Anders dan sommige leraren is ze totaal niet bezig met te laten zien hoe flexibel en getraind haar lichaam wel niet is. Wanneer leraren dat wel doen, heeft dat op mij soms een intimiderend en verlammend effect en dat haalt me uit de flow. Haar kracht, flexibiliteit en de manier waarop zij yoga beoefent inspireren me juist en helpen me om op een speelse manier op ontdekking te gaan. 

Sunyoung weet een mooie, rustige sfeer te creëren, waarin ik me verbonden voelde met haar, mezelf en de anderen in de groep. Haar luchtige, humorvolle stijl houdt het geheel ook prettig aards.

Ik kan de lessen van Sunyoung aan iedereen aanbevelen, van jong tot oud en van beginner tot gevorderd, omdat ze rekening houdt met iedereen.

Als je twijfelt omdat je niet eerder Yoga of een Cacao ceremonie hebt bijgewoond…Gewoon proberen, je gaat altijd een bijzondere, leerzame en prettige ervaring hebben!

YOGA & CACAO CEREMONY

Aloha,

I live in a remote, rural part of Hawai’i. I feel so deeply grateful that our little part of this great and fascinating world attracted such a gifted and talented yoga teacher as Laha Sunyoung… and that I got the enormous gift and honor to practice with her.
I have studied and taught yoga for more than half of my life now and had the chance to take many many yoga classes over the years, but none have been as moving and heart opening as Laha’s classes.
She has a natural gift for sharing and guiding her students through breathing and movement exercises with gentleness, a calm presence and a lightness of being that is an absolutely marvelous combination to experience.
She is an incredibly rare person, who can not only do what she teaches with amazingly adept skill, but can also convey and teach these things as well. Many can do and not teach, others can teach and not do – but she is master of both. A very rare teacher indeed!
I observed and admired her ability to make everyone, at every level of physical capacity, feel welcome and capable throughout her classes.
Everyone of every age and experience, gets the reward of being projected forward into their very own “future self” as she calls it. And with her wisdom to guide you along, you would be conveyed toward your own as well… should you be so fortunate to have the chance to practice with her!

If I could make any wish regarding Laha Sunyoung, it would be only to get more time to learn from her depth of knowledge, and to basque in her exquisite presence more and more.

Mahalo e nā akua for bringing her to us here, on our little dot in the ocean. And for bringing me across her path.

Me ke aloha,

YOGA & CACAO CEREMONY
