We strive to create the Ultimate

Water Therapy Experience

WE BELIEVE IN:

The Power of Water

When seeing, being in, near, or around water – it releases
Happy Brain Chemicals (HBC) Dopamine that help you stay mindful of the
present moment, clear your mind. and enhance the flow of oxygen to your
brain, which is an important factor in mental health and wellness.

At 2 Walk On Water, we provide preventive mental health solutions through
life-changing water therapy experiences in Oahu, Hawaii by intentionally
leveraging the therapeutic and spiritual values of water-based
activities.

That’s how we decided to focus our mission on 3 water activities to

empower you to improve your mental health and wellness.

The Founder Story

Water has a unique and profound ability to heal, a
truth Wesley and Debora Stewart have championed through their impactful
nonprofit endeavors. Starting with Urban Surf for Kids, they harnessed
the therapeutic properties of water to aid foster youth, offering them a
sanctuary where they could find solace and build resilience. This
initiative laid the foundation for their work, highlighting water’s role
not just in physical well-being but in emotional and psychological
healing.

Expanding upon this success, the Stewarts
established Every Kid Swims, broadening the scope to reach more children
in need of water therapy. Their latest project, 2 Walk on Water, takes
this concept further by focusing on veterans, first responders, and
others experiencing severe mental stress. This initiative underscores
the Stewarts’ belief in water’s healing power, especially for those
coping with trauma and seeking mental wellness.

At the heart of 2 Walk on Water is the understanding that water activities are
more than physical exercises; they are a form of mental and emotional
therapy. The organization’s programs are designed to alleviate stress,
anxiety, and symptoms of PTSD, offering a tranquil and rejuvenating
experience. Through their work, Wesley and Debora Stewart have become
pioneers in using water therapy to foster healing and resilience, making
a lasting impact on the lives of those who have faced life’s toughest
challenges.
