I found this info about a Maui Marc who teaches Anusara. Sound like him? The workshop is not the Dec 4-11 timeframe, but if he's the right dude, I can see where else he may be in December. BTW, the studio is about an hour drive from where I would stay in Napili. It looks like he teaches Anusara there several times a week.

Here's another one - linking you straight to their day retreats, which seem customizable by purpose/location: http://mauiyogaexperiences.com/blog/day-retreats/ Looks like she teaches out of Studio Maui.

This place looks cool too: http://yogaonmaui.com/maya/home/

Getting too sleepy to investigate, but I'm going to pick up my search here: http://www.yogadirectory.com/Retreats_and_Vacations/Hawaii/

And I haven't even started looking up surfing!

I just found out that links will only show up after the first 10 blog entries, so once we have 10 blog entries we'll be able to paste a link into an Entry and it will be clickable.

Well as we say in Yoga .....That depends! It depends on the moment ,it depends on our "pose" .How stable do we feel were we are at and how much freedom can extend from the place of stability . Sometimes we feel perfectly balanced ,other times what is deemed as stability just feels to dang small for what our hearts are wanting to express and experience,and other time we lose our stability when we move to far out of our center.....the goal: to keep coming back to center ,making a connection and moving out again teaching us not to move faster than what we are ready for in any given moment.SO that as we move ,reach and extend we never lose connection from our core,our hearts. The more we practice this idea the deeper we move into to the place in the middle .and Within the middle beats our hearts.We then can learn to live within this pulsation between stability and freedom ,(each one feeding the other),the grand pulsation known in the yogic realm as Spanda , as we move out and explore .
SO may our journies be blessed with the constant sound and movement of our beating hearts! The constant contraction and expansion of our breath and the constant realization of the earth beneath our feets ; )as our hearts lift way up to the heavens! May they be blessed with Grace!

As for checking out some places to explore ......go all over the web site they have 3 different retreat centers each one going progressively deeper into the AMAZON!!
