What is Mana?

Mana is a Polynesian word representing energy, power, strength, protection, and respect. It’s believed that one can gain or lose mana through one’s actions or decisions. It’s a spiritual energy that lives in people, places, and things, and we can gain our mana by doing good for our community and those in need.

We believe that in these times, we must stay prepared, be vigilant, train our minds and bodies, and protect our communities.

This is MANA!
