These circles are an invitation to slow down, quiet the mind, connect to the heart and pay attention to our deepest wisdom. The intention is to provide a safe space for women to connect and support each other on this collective path towards joy, beauty and empowerment. These circles are free of judgement of ourselves and others.
"In the circle we are all equal. When in the circle no one is in front, no one is behind, no one is below, no one is above"
Our time together will include soft movement practices, pranayama, mantra and song, deep rest with a sound bath, meditative journaling and reflection. Aligning with the astrology of the moon and divine feminine archetypes, we will come together in support of sacred sisterhood. It is also a potent and powerful time to set clear intentions and goals for our life!
Let us all see what magic we can create, goals we can achieve and clarity we can connect with by committing to gather.

1.Traditional Hawaiian Techniques
The first pillar of Lomilomi Fusion is rooted in the traditional techniques of Lomilomi, an ancient Hawaiian massage practice. These techniques were learned directly in Maui, Hawaii, where I trained under experienced Kumus (masters) Lomilomi is characterized by long, continuous, and rhythmic strokes, often compared to the waves of the ocean. These movements not only relax the muscles but also aim to promote the flow of vital energy (mana) and restore balance to the body and mind. The central philosophy of Lomilomi is the concept of aloha, which translates to love, compassion, and respect, and is a fundamental part of the healing practice.
2. Elements of Self-Creation:
The second pillar of Lomilomi Fusion involves incorporating techniques and elements of self-creation. This means that, in addition to traditional techniques, this approach allows practitioners to customize their sessions based on each client's specific needs. Elements of self-creation can include variations in pressure, rhythm, and additional techniques that complement traditional Lomilomi. This flexibility is essential for adapting the massage to the realities of the modern world, such as increased stress, sedentary lifestyles, and other contemporary health issues. Thus, Lomilomi Fusion is not just a technique but an art that allows for creative and individualized expression by the therapist.
Tools and Techniques
In the Lomilomi Fusion course, students will learn a sequence of 1hour of massage and learn how to use a variety of tools and techniques to maximize the effectiveness of the massage. This includes using hands, phalanges, forearms, elbows, and even feet. Each of these tools offers different levels of pressure and can be used to reach various layers of muscle tissue and body structures.
Course Objectives
This course is designed to provide a comprehensive understanding of Lomilomi Fusion, combining theory and practice to prepare participants for the effective application of the technique. The main objectives include:
