creator of the music project Harmala. As a graduate of Berklee College of Music and self taught guitarist from the age of ten, Danny is a skilled musician and offers a deeply grounding energy.  He has been facilitating sacred ceremonies for seven years and has the innate ability to synchronize his music and guardianship with the vibe of the people. He is the guy who waters the roots of the operation and sees that each individual is well taken care of.  His music project Harmala combines synths, guitar and vocal looping, chanting and sounds of the jungle.

Malia began her spiritual journey in 2015 when she swam with a pod of wild dolphins off the shore of Hawaii where her parents were born and raised. This experience began a whole journey of sacred plant medicine ceremony, yoga teacher training, kundalini yoga, finding her authentic voice, igniting music into her life again, learning and practicing the art of tantra and connecting in deep, expansive love with her feminine nature.

​

Since 2018 Malia has facilitated sacred ceremony with her husband and musical partner Danny Byrne at their space in the South Bay of Los Angeles. They also co-create other group retreats monthly in the mountains of San Diego with their mentor Lourdez of Healing Spirit Sanctuary, another seasoned facilitator and retreat leader.  

Malia guides weekly women's kundalini yoga classes and sound baths which include bowls, gongs, drums, soothing vocals, chimes and original music to which she accompanies herself with guitar. Additionally, she offers women's integrative healing sessions with her practice Mermaid Massage South Bay that include lomi lomi Hawaiian massage, Ayurvedic practices, breathwork, tantric embodiment for healing from trauma, sound healing and more.
