born and bred in Hawaii - HI-BRED - our roots run deep. we take pride in the culture that shaped us - a culture of ohana, kuleana, and aloha. it is those pillars that come together like strands of fabric, weaved together to create something both beautiful and strong, yet rooted in the community that binds us. the imagery of lauhala in our logo is a powerful metaphor for us, as it represents not only a sacred art, but the time, patience, and skill to create something powerful, precise, and durable. the play on the word hybrid is meant to represent a fusion between the richness of our heritage and a modern landscape that necessitates global representation - one that celebrates who we are and where we come from, while also serving as a springboard to help us get to where we’re going. flow refers to the dynamic movement - like the ocean shaping the shores - as our people navigate geographically in the physical sense (from the islands to the continent), throughout various life stages (from youth to collegiate pursuits), or through daily challenges and triumphs (from losses to lessons). all the letters in our name - HI BRED FLOW - are found in our logo, symbolizing the interconnectedness of our journeys!

our mission is to weave together the stories of athletes, cultures, and communities from all corners of the world. we aim to create a platform where achievement is recognized and celebrated; where voices are amplified; and where people who are often overlooked, are given opportunities to be seen, supported, and empowered.
