Participation fee is $275 per couple for both days, or $150 per couple for one day. Guests staying at the Outrigger Waikiki on the Beach or the Outrigger Reef on the Beach can receive a 20% discount.

His published books include the wildly popular Office Yoga, Office Spa, Office Feng Shui, Everyday Calm, Travel Yoga, and the recently released Lovers‘ Yoga.

Happy Travels Stretch
If you have to leave the Hawaiian Islands this stretch will help you keep the Aloha spirit.

· While sitting down interlace your fingers behind your head.

· Relax your elbows and shoulders.
· Smile, breathe, and stretch your elbows back.

E-mail Meditation
While you are reading your e-mail, remember to breathe slowly and focus your attention on your breath. Make the out-breath two times longer than the in-breath. This will immediately calm you.
