"I was expecting to learn just another massage technique. What I found instead was a course in Polynesian history that you would be hard-pressed to find in any university. Kumu, you taught us with patience and love and understanding. You helped us straighten our own 'kinks" so we could do the work intended of us, and that is to help others." (Kainoa)


"Words cannot describe the time and experiences I have shared with Kumu and the rest of the class, the "Children of the Rainbow," in this intensive Lomilomi course. It has been unforgettable.....I have gone to places I never thought I could (see), I have felt like I never thought I would (feel). I feel a totally different person and for that I truly have gratitude and the hugest respect and love for Kumu. This course is a must for anyone who wants to embark on an infinite spiritual journey...." (Kupu)


"I thought I was coming to a massage course and now found that this is the equivalent of Carlos Casteneda studying in the Mexican Desert with the timeless Shaman, Don Juan. ...If I could sum up my feeling in a word or two, I would say, 'Amazingly Grateful'! From my personal practices, along with my studies and work, my sensitivity to working with energy has increased and become more tangible....I will use what I've learned to help myself and as many others as I can." (Kekoa)


“I feel as if I am on a spiritual journey when I experience your teachings. Your wisdom and unconditional love shines through the stories you tell. The organization of your curriculum is flawless and flowing. Everything is taught in a relaxed environment, but much is always accomplished...You are wonderful! Lomilomi is definitely going to be a lifestyle change for myself as a person and as an instrument in God’s healings. Thank you for inspiring me and awakening my intuitive spirit from within.” (Loraine, O’ahu, May 2007)

Class Descriptions

Lomilomi I
Lomilomi is the power of touch in the spirit of Aloha. We start with Kamana'o 'io, Hawaiian values, where we find our connection to our past,present and future. We learn the Hawaiian way, with love and caring; discovering your spiritual gifts and nuturing your intuition. Learn the "Huna" secrets of the past to open the portal of learning. The class includes the full-body table massage with opu huli, the ancient Hawaiian art of setting the stomach back into alignment. Learn the chants and prayers that transform.

Lomilomi I is a wonderful beginning to learning more about yourself and your ability to share love and healing not just with physical massage, but with intention and breathing. EVERYONE can learn this gift that you can share with friends and family to relieve pain and tension, a gift that comes from your heart.

Lomilomi II Healing with Shells
Advanced Course (pre-requisite Lomilomi I) We go deeper into the spiritualitiy of Lomilomi and Huna. Learn to remove negative energies and spiritual attatchments, balance the Pineal gland the spiritual connector and bring the body, mind, and spirit into alignment. Learn spiritual cleansing with Ho'oponopono and the Aka cord cutting ceremony. We do inner child work on our unihipili, soul retrieval, and increase our ablility to see and hear messages of Spirit. For the physical body, you learn to set the tailbone back into place and rotate the hips to smooth out instantly any tension and pain. Also included is the seated massage for the head, neck shoulder and arms.
