Interested in becoming a lomi lomi practitioner? 
Lomi Lomi is an ancient Hawaiin healing technique that combines energy work with touch. Practiced by the healers of Hawai’i for thousands of years, legends say they learned it from the dolphins. This sacred movement discreates shadows and creates light, love and insights. It makes an incredible complement to any massage, esthetician, or holistic healing practitioner's services or can be offered as a stand alone service. On the physical level Lomi Lomi helps to release the aches, pains and strains of the heart and is physically akin to lymphatic drainage! On the emotional and energetic level it is a sacred coming home to you.

 It is said by our teachers, that from lifetime to lifetime, we promise to return, to re-discover this work and to bring it forward to serve future generations! Come and Remember! Hele Mai!

🌊ARE YOU READY TO SURF THE WAVES OF CHANGE?
Arrive on the 23rd early in the day if you wish to participate in a Fall Equinox celebration or arrive before dark to begin training on the 24th at 7am.

Each day will commence with stretching and a yoga practice. We will then break for breakfast and begin the rest of our day training. These days are very full with early morning and evening work rolled into the five day intensive format of training. Together Alani and I will be teaching you to feel, heal, and move energy. You are dancing the waves of energy akin to shamanism. You will push yourself, see your pain and life experiences come to light before your eyes and in this experience deepen self love through the lomi gifts of forgiveness, compassion and love. We will teach you the sacred lineage, the power in the language, and the intention necessary to create true change within and for your prospective clients. You will be learning the ancient dance that accompanies this technique, how to see the body as scared and then finishing with understanding the touch and strokes to perform the Lomi Lomi massage. After our training you will be required to find 12 participants to practice on who must offer written feedback to be brought back to your instructors for your final exam. The final exam is performing a lomi massage on us. After this is completed you will be granted a certificate to enable you to apply for insurance and begin your own journey as a Lomi Practitioner.

Accommodation & Meals: 
You are welcome to bring your own camping gear and camp on site and there is room for 6 to sleep in the yurt. For those wishing to sleep in true accommodation a discount of 10% is on offer for a cabin at nearby Springwood Resorts. The drive is 8 minutes and as students you may wish to share a cabin to cut costs. Part of this training includes gifts of service meaning we will all work on a roster to cook, clean and manage the spaces in shifts. If you have specific food needs you will be welcome to bring and cook on your own set-up to meet your needs and keep you nourished. THIS IS S A TRULY IMMERSEIVE EXPERIENCE. As instructors we will be looking for your involvement in gifts of service, your ability to hold space for yourself and your class mates, as well as the technical aspects of your massage techniques. All components are what will lead you towards your final certification, this is more than mechanical bodywork, this is a mystical life changing endeavor. You will be fully supported by both instructors along your journey.

“runs” and patterns foundational to this ceremonial bodywork style.
