“Lomi Lomi Hawaiian bodywork is Aloha in motion

Simple. Pure. Truthfully.
Like a Kahuna said:

“Lomi Lomi without prayer is like swimming in an ocean without water. ”

Prayer is not a duty,
but a desire for union and remembrance.
An inner knowing,
whisper of the ancestors,
A power from the AI.

Lomi Lomi is an invitation of the heart,
a sacred dance in the flow of aloha
the breath of the stars.
Pathway of the Stars.

Without prayer it’s just form,
without a soull.
Lomi lomi living on the prayer. “

Here am I, in Portugal at Bec’s land, likely for the last time before she moves on… saying goodbye to the animals & a place that’s been my safe place to escape to for the last few years. Whilst I’m here I’m working on some exciting projects, contact improv dancing & spending time with nature & good old padre sol. 🌞

I reallyyy want to share with you all how life changing, connecting & opening Lomi Lomi is!! I know it may seem like it’s just learning a massage but honestly it’s been such deep self growth for me on these courses and trainings. It’s opened me up to sooo many wonderful people, it creates community based on love & care. The vulnerability that people share & that is held so lovingly by the group and the modality is heart opening. To walk & operate in this world with the principles of Huna & Lomi Lomi is changing the world for the better. ❤️

I am sharing this little clip of our last introduction day - each stroke given with so much presence, intention and love.

If there’s an interest in you to learn and experience something like this - follow it!
Come and join us on an introduction day to get a taste, or the full training in November. 🥰

To the aspiring massage therapists & existing massage practitioners…

I am delighted to extend a warm invitation to a one-day Lomi Lomi training event in Bristol on the 22nd of August & Brighton on the 24th of August.

This invaluable experience will equip you with a comprehensive understanding of Lomi Lomi, a time-honored Hawaiian practice. Throughout the day you will learn a full back routine, enabling you to really get a feel of this body work modality & with the instructional videos you will receive, take it home to practice on friends.

In addition, you will have the opportunity to explore mana breathing, a powerful tool that enhances both your Lomi Lomi practice and personal well-being. We will also delve into the spiritual and cultural aspects of Lomi Lomi, fully honouring the roots, rituals and traditions.

Spaces for this unique event are limited, so we encourage you to secure your spot as soon as possible. We very much look forward to welcoming you.

We have a full 4 day residential training in Glastonbury on the 20-23rd November 2025.

Love,
Ellise & Ricardo 💚
