As a person who practices meditation I was super stoked to see this place right by my house. I do…read morechakra and kundalini meditation, mostly, but I was totally open to the idea of learning a new form, Shambhala, which means you meditate by focusing on one thing: your breath. This space is in the Aikahi shopping center, upstairs, in ste 205. The outside area is really nice, and the space for meditation is small, but efficient. Diane was the teacher I had when I went in on a Tuesday evening. She was very welcoming as people entered the room, explained that we could sit on a chair or a zabuton, which ever was more comfortable for us. If I was someone who had never practiced meditation, or had NO clue what was going on, I would appreciate this. As the class gets started Diane explains the meaning of shambhala, a bit of the history, and how it's different from other forms of meditation and what to expect. It's pretty simple, but we can all admit, that sitting, breathing and focusing on only your breath while letting all other thoughts that come into our mind go, it can be tricky, that's why this is called a practice. ;-) 15 min later, Diane rings the singing bowl and we do a 15 min walking meditation. I'd never done this type before, and I found it to be rewarding after sitting for 15 min in a lotus position. Then we all sit as a group, and meditate for 15 more min. So, 45 min total is a LONG time for a beginner, but I found it to be really wonderful. I never get that much time to meditate. Diane was available after the session was over if you wanted to talk to her or had any questions. It was nice to speak with someone with similar interest and who is just a very nice soul. She has great energy.

If you visit, I highly recommend going early in the morning. Parking is limited, and the grounds are much quieter earlier in the day, making it easier to take in the peaceful surroundings.

If you visit the temple, please be respectful and remove your shoes before entering. Take your time, enjoy the serenity, and appreciate the beauty of this special place.

The name of the temple means "Broken Ridge Temple.". What appears to be a flaw in the construction the roof was lowered because it exceeded the height limitation of the City & County. The temple is magnificent despite the roof's lower height. The grounds are beautiful and abundant with plants especially the variety of mango trees and coconut trees throughout the property. There are statues such as the Statue of Miruk Boddhisatava. There are lotus buds and lovely lotus flowers in bloom and pots of water lilies too. Water is saved in plastic containers and drums. The most interesting sight is the pots of aged miso and shoyu on the roof top below the temple. Highly recommmend a visit to capture the tranquility and beauty of the temple and Palolo Valley.

It…read morewas an invitation to slow down, pay attention, and rediscover my relationship with the living world around me. Her gentle presence, wisdom, and skill as a guide created a space where I felt both grounded and renewed. What impressed me most was how naturally she helped us move beyond simply observing nature to truly being in conversation with it. The experience awakened gratitude, wonder, and a deeper sense of connection. Our time together was rich with meaningful reflection, laughter, silence, and insight. Phyllis brings extraordinary warmth, attentiveness, and authenticity to her work. She guides without forcing, teaches without preaching, and creates the conditions for each person to discover their own experience. I left feeling restored in body, mind, and spirit. Highly recommended for anyone seeking reflection, healing, and a deeper connection with the natural world. I wholeheartedly recommend Phyllis Look and Forest Bathing Hawaiʻi. This was one of the most meaningful wellness experiences I have had, and I will carry its gifts with me for a long time. -- Radmar Jao, SJ

There are some instructors that are popular and you need to be waiting before the last class ends to get a spot, but other wise there enough space in class if you come 5-10 minutes before. I recommend to always go at least 10 minutes earlier. There's ample parking by Whole Foods or in front of Long's. There's many other classes such as hot power fusion, sculpt (similar to a hitt class with weights), core restore, and different levels of yoga c1-c3. If you want a workout go to sculpt but any class with make you sweat and give a good workout! Bring a towel, mat, and water or else they will charge you for each. You can sign up for a week free if you haven't been to corepower before and you get an unlimited week of yoga at any studio. Everyone here is very friendly and studio is cleaned frequently.
