Who We Are
Maui Access to Mindful Movement (MAMM) is a 501(c)3 nonprofit bringing healing, empowerment, joy and connection to Maui families through community movement classes and events. Through direct experience, these community events show us that mindful movement isn’t just physical fitness; it is a catalyst for unlocking our individual and collective potential through focus, awareness, self-regulation, and joyful growth. Group movement events are an opportunity for social interaction in an environment of discipline, shared principles and common goals. These community activities can be deeply therapeutic. They bring us out of isolation and give us safe space to move together. When we move with intention, breathe in rhythm, and grow together, something more than physical well being happens – fear transforms into courage, isolation into belonging, and trauma into resilience. Moving mindfully leads to living mindfully. Yoga, martial arts, sacred dance, cultural ritual and nature immersion help everyone develop healthier social interactions and family dynamics. MAMM seeks to bring mindful movement to more Maui families by offering
- By-donation community events introducing people to mindful movement styles
- Connecting people with ongoing mindful movement programs in their neighborhood
- Bringing mindful movement day programs into schools
- Offering Family mindful movement events
- Helping with tuition assistance to keep keiki enrolled through their formative years
