Copyright notice
We are a Social Enterprise. We raise funds for our community projects through the training we provide. The foundation of our Training in all SoHAD developed courses, workshops, learning programs, retreats, podcasts, audiocasts and the like, that is, anything we produce, is the 50+ Generations of Traditional Knowledge of our Ancestors from Halawa Valley Molokai, Hawaii,
We ask that you respect them and their knowledge by not sharing the content of our courses, workshops, learning programs, retreats, podcasts, audiocast and the like for any purpose of profit or not-for-profit. This content is for your personal growth and development. We ask this because so much of our Traditional Knowledge is being distorted and basically, people are paying to learn the wrong information and the application of that information. The only way we can keep it intact, as it has been for 50+ Generations, is to ask you not to violate the Teachings of the Elders by sharing the content - no matter how well meaning you think it might be.
If you do want to share something - then please, contact us first.
