He has felt honored and inspired by the teachings of many and holds gratitude for all of his teachers, past and present. He continues to hold a sacred space for breath, gratitude, yoga and love in his weekly classes at Kalani Oceanside Retreat. www.jaredsam.com

Richard and Kalani team, I feel moved by your example...you live aloha, share amazing spirit and vision, and remind me what 'living' really is.

I look forward to staying in touch with you and the others and hope for many more wonderful moments with you all at Kalani. Much aloha, David (Kawika)
