Been loving my kitesurf sessions lately! : )



BE Maui is coming up on April 27th! I hope you all can join. I have been working hard to offer an amazing unforgettable event and experience this year. We are going to have the annual downwinder, but there are a bunch of surprises for the day that I can’t wait to share with you all. Guys are invited to come to the beach too that day and help with the beach clean up at Baldwin or help volunteer! Just ask me how :)
We will also be doing the opening ceremony at Flatbread in Paia on Tuesday night the 23rd of April. We will be doing a food drive for Maui Food Bank so please bring food to donate. There will be barrels in front of the restraunt for drop off.
Email us if you want to be involved, donate, support, or have an offering for the event! We are open to ideas that bring the community together.
Thanks! info@betheeffect.com
Registration is online this year! First 100 to sign up receive the event schwag bag!

Butterflies..Wind Goddesses..Sailing the ocean blue..
Whales & sails & raging gales, water women & crew
Flutter we did, us
Butterflies
Wet watery photos taken in the deep & tranquil blue
White wings billowing in the liquid light
Distance whale songs sing their plight
Deep freediver world champion..
Undulating in his black skin suit
The caterpillar no doubt.
My lacy wings of light teasing his rubbery form beneath
glistening bubble rings
Wet Butterflies take Flight!

Ahhh! I am so happy to be on Maui and enjoying all it offers. I was kitesurfing the other day during sunset and I felt like I was in a painting. Everywhere I looked was so different but it was all so beautiful. I was all by myself screaming and hooting out of laughter and enjoyment, feeling so blessed and energized. The ocean and water sports has given me so much, and I have been working hard organizing next years Butterfly Effects trips and events so I can share the passion and fun with others. Take a look at the upcoming Butterfly Effect events on Facebook or BeTheEffect.com. I hope you and your friends will be able to join me in an upcoming BE trip! Get ready to have some fun! 2013 is the year for new adventures, friends, travels, and adventures!

Excited to make it to the finals and finish in 4th place! It was great competing with all the girls. We are all friends and it is just amazing to sail Ho’okipa with 3 others out. There were 20 women participating, which is a great turnout for women in the sport. Stoked to see so many women sign up! :) Everyone was charging the big waves, and the conditions were perfect Ho’okipa day. Lucky us!
