Looking for Lomi Lomi Training & Understanding

by Teresa Avelar

Jul 26, 2011

Hello everyone, I've been a massage therapist for over 16 years, and a lover of the Hawaiian culture so it seemed obvious to me to want to learn how to do Lomi Lomi, unfortunately I can't seem to find training available in northern california, can anyone point me in the right direction?

 

Unfortunately I don't have the means to travel too far for training. Thank you.

    I am offering a training in Colorado if you can attend this October.

    As well as the best place to train on the island of Kaua'i.

     

    I am working on a class in the California region, but it probably won't happen til 2012.

    Blessings on your journey to find the teacher that is for you!

    Aloha, Gloria

    This article by Gloria and quoting other members here is very helpful in the understanding of Lomi Lomi. http://www.massagemag.com/News/massage-news.php?id=9304

    "Lomi lomi means massage or “to shift,” which may be translated by many into a variety of styles and techniques. Hawaiian healing is a tradition that is handed down for generations to family (‘ohana) and varies among islands and families, many of which are still secret. This is what differentiates the traditional form from the contemporary styles and other styles of massage, the essence of a culture of healing vs. a technique."
