Philosophy

The ocean is a source of mysticism and the basis of legends and facts that have become embedded in who we are and what we have become. We hold the ocean in respect and awe through its many changing moods of chaos and tranquility and all phases in between. While we cannot seek to tame such an unpredictable element, we are constantly seeking ways to work with it, to harvest its potential, to find balance, to seek understanding of ourselves and the environment, and to work together in harmony with the ocean leading to greater productivity and a better way of life. A unique team building activity!

In this way, the ocean becomes a metaphor for the business world with:

• Its many changing facets and moods,
• The tidal ebb and flow of economic factors,
• The turmoil and chaos of change,
• The need to provide greater output without depreciating finite resources within shifting and unpredictable global environments,
• Seeking some control,
• Developing balance and working in harmony together,
• Being flexible,
• Finding personal self worth and challenge, and
• Valuing others in the quest for success and self-fulfillment.

Some of Nancy’s favorite quotes:

“Lokahi is mind, body and soul. To just strengthen yourself physically is not enough. To strengthen yourself mentally is not enough. To strengthen yourself spiritually is not enough. To strengthen yourself physically, mentally and spiritually is Lokahi.”

- Brian Keaulana

‘La’i lua ke kai’
The sea is very calm
All is peaceful

“I think we have to teach a lot of these kids to first be gentleman… Try to help one another and not hog the doggone waves. You know, there are so many waves coming in all the time, you don’t have to worry about that. Just take your time – wave comes. Let the other guys go. Catch another one. And that’s what we used to do. We’d see some other fella there first and we’d say, “You were here first. You take the first wave.””

- Duke Kahanamoku (1966)

“Surfing is very much like making love. It always feels good – no matter how many times you’ve done it. But what is most important about surfing, as with loving, is it’s worth to the individual. There’s a strong sense of fulfillment, as opposed to frustration.”

- Paul Strauch
