Hawaiian LomiLomi Lapa‘au Breath of Ha
Join master Kahuna Lapa‘au Practitioner and master Kumu Leina‘ala Brown for the “Hawaiian LomiLomi Lapa‘au Breath of Ha” workshop on Saturday, November 10, 2018, from 10am – 1pm at Volcano Art Center Ni‘aulani Campus in Volcano Village.
LomiLomi goes far beyond massage, however; it also reflects the connection we have with the land (‘aina), the spirit guides or ancestors (‘aumakua) and the breath of life (aloha). LomiLomi, sometimes called Hawaiian massage, is beneficial for many ailments and to increase spiritual energy and personal power (mana). The nurturing strokes are relaxing; however, one soon learns this work is therapeutic on all levels.
This level 1 training begins with the history of Hawaiian LomiLomi and an oli (chant). Topics covered in the workshop include Pule Wehe Oli (opening prayer), hands-on LomiLomi Breath of Ha, learning the Golden Keys of Tane I Ta Wai‘ola (Water is Life Detox), and more. The class fee is $100/$90 for VAC members. Students are asked to bring a yoga mat, water, a towel, and warm clothing.
For over 40 years, Kahuna Kumu Leina‘ala Brownhas worked with healing, health and wellness prevention and restorative health for cancer, diabetes, and heart disease patients, strengthening the mind, body, spirit and soul healing of her patients. Kumu Leina‘ala has worked with people on island and worldwide, sharing her mana (divine energy) and doing her sacred ceremonies and spiritual readings. Kumu Leina‘ala comes from Volcano, Hawai‘i and resides on the Big Island of Hawai’i.
This workshop has been canceled.
