Introduction
John:
Could you explain what Flow Kakou means?
Matt speaks:
Absolutely. Flow Kakou is my non-profit, my 501c3. We’re based in Hawaii. The title Flow Kakou – I took the word “flow” from the Buddhist definition of balance. The presence of both yin and yang at the same moment.
“Kakou” in Hawaiian means “everything.” To the stars, to the sand, to the water, to the people, to the animals, to the grass, even to the little bugs that we hate – that’s all Kakou.
“Flow Kakou” to me is literally the balance of yin and yang moving together. So, Flow Kakou is the balance of all of us moving together.
And that’s what this non-profit does. We go out into the community from all ages, from the youth to senior citizens, using movement as our medium. But the whole goal is to create a stronger community.
I believe that dance builds better communicators, and better communicators make better community members.
