Would you like to discover a way of working that ignites passion?
Would you like to bring a more spiritual connection to your work?
Would you like to create and deliver an elevated experience to your clients?
Healing Hands Hana Ka Lima Lomi Trainings are for anyone who wants to learn to access their own healing legacy and learn to live in the spirit of Aloha. For those who seek to really connect, human to human, soul to soul - to foster limitless transformation of the mind body spirit.. Most Lomi courses and workshops are NCBTMB approved for CEU Massage Continuing Education.
The traditional Hawaiian way of learning applies -
Pa'a ka waha, nana ka maka; hana ka lima
Shut the mouth; observe with the eyes; work with the hands.
(One learns by listening, observing and doing.)
Ma ka hana ka ‘ike
Through doing one learns
(Practice, repetition)
Note: This is unlike most massage training. It can be deeply emotional, personal work. Lomi Lomi involves the Physical, Mental, Emotional, Spiritual and Perceptive. It is both learning and unlearning and can set you on a path that influences all your future work.
Lomi Lomi is my passion. It is so much more than a technique, for me it is a way of life. Living Lomi.
I’ve been devoted to learning and now teaching this sacred work for many years. I would be delighted to introduce you to this wonderful world of healing touch to share with your family, your community, the world.
My goal with this training is to help massage therapists thrive in addition to providing effective massage and touch to others.
The lomi & quality of touch workshops I teach are designed to inspire both beginning and experienced massage therapists to develop an awareness and presence within their own bodies and minds.
As massage therapists we have the opportunity to facilitate special journeys for our clients. We serve as a skilled tour guides. The analogy I often use is to tell my client they are sitting on a train, looking out the window, while I am at the controls, driving - so that they can just enjoy the ride. I invite them to experience their bodies - really to connect, to feel, to let go.

In Temple Style Lomi Lomi your whole being is accepted and honored in its natural unity. By aligning with divine, unconditional love and acceptance (aloha) whose source is within, the Lomi Lomi practitioner creates a sacred space of nurturing love, peace, and safety in which the recipient is invited to completely trust, let go and receive, or become one with what is, in this moment (Ho‘oponopono – the practice of coming into alignment with truth).
You will learn a way of thinking designed to gently shift your awareness and deepen your sensitivities. You will learn a grace and fluidity and how to bring the lightness of movement to your work and to the receiver on the table.

Course Description
A 3 day immersive experience into the deeper aspects of Lomi Lomi Massage, building on your prior work.
This hands-on course is designed to enhance and refine for participants the techniques learned in the previous class as well as introduce more advanced strokes.
With more focus on the Quality of Touch, this course re emphasizes the basics and is more individualized to the needs of each student as they progress on their Lomi Journey. Some new techniques are introduced including new work on the head and neck.
After learning, comes unlearning, where students are encouraged to "let go" and some improvisational techniques are introduced.
Because every Lomi journey is different, each time you approach a table, different possibilities arise based on that moment in time and place.
Learning Objectives
This course reinforces and embellishes everything learned in Basis I. Upon completion, you will have a much deeper understanding of the profound effects of Kahuna Bodywork.
Those who have experienced it know the real meaning of Ke Ala Hoku, “the journey that carries you home.” It will take you into the bliss essence of your own Being – your own true nature beyond the layers of your conditioned identities, it is in a word, 'mind-blowing'.

Swedish 2.0 - Taking your sequence to the next level. Develop your signature style
Course Description
This 2 day hands-on course is designed to help students improve their individual quality of touch skills. You have graduated, maybe you are working, but now what? New modalities? How about polishing and perfecting what you already know? Don’t you wish your basic Swedish training was more in depth? Would you like to take your sequence to the next level? This is the course you have been waiting for.
This is the course every recent graduate should take – or anyone who feels that their work is “stuck”, or that they are somehow missing out on their true potential.
How many times have you been so focused on your sequence that you forget about the body on your table? When we are at ease in our own bodies, that energy is transferred to our clients and can be felt – optimizing your client’s ability to relax and receive the work.
The focus of this class will be on how to work, while also introducing some new or alternate techniques. It is about refining the work that is already inside you, not memorizing something new. Thus for every student the outcome may be different.
Considered a prerequisite to "Extraordinary Touch"
Learning Objectives
This course refines existing techniques and practices of the individual students, It introduces limited new material but rather focuses on improving existing techniques with an eye toward maximizing the experience for the client on the table. Student will learn specialized movement meditations and some new techniques for effleurage, petrissage, and manipulating limbs.
The student is challenged and immersed into the concept of nurturing and developing their own unique signature style.

Developing and Extraordinary Quality of Touch
Course Description
This 2 day hands-on course is designed to help students improve their individual quality of touch skills. Through the incorporation of movement, conscious breathing, awareness, focus, manipulating limbs with grace, developing “soft hands”, making contact - maximizes the effectiveness of the treatment and improves the practitioners confidence and job satisfaction.
Bodywork and Massage Therapy Continuing Education is heavily weighted towards new “modalities” and ways to touch, very little attention seems to be focused on “how” to touch, including cultivating awareness, listening to the body, how to move, manipulating limbs with grace, developing “soft hands”, making contact – really “feeling” what you are doing and responding in real time.
Massage is like a dance, between the receiver and the giver – learn to dance with grace and fluidity. When we are at ease in our own bodies, that energy is transferred to our clients and can be felt – optimizing your client’s ability to relax and receive the work.
Body mechanics is often presented with the focus of self-care and career longevity. Complete with stern warnings about precision placement of feet, posture. How many times have you been so focused on your body that you forget about the body on your table?
Cultivating a presence and awareness are key elements of really superior bodywork. The focus of this class will be on how to work, not learning new techniques. It is about refining the work that is already inside you, not copying something new. Thus for every student the outcome may be different.
Drawing upon some of the elements of Lomi Lomi, like Ka´aleleau (flying) and Hana ka Lima (working with hands) you will learn how to add grace, fluidity and the aloha spirit to your work These principles will be reinforced by experiential exercises in class, demonstration, observation as well as ample hands-on practice.
