Aloha and Welcome!

Welcome to Nancy Kahalewai's website.
I have been teaching massage therapy on the Big Island of Hawaii since 1976.
I founded two massage schools in Hawaii, and co-directed massage teams for Kona's Ironman Triathlon and the Volcano Marathon until moving to New Zealand in 2007.
My book Hawaiian Lomilomi - Big Island Massage (2nd Ed) is also available in German and Japanese languages. My 3rd Ed is due out this year in eBook format.

New How to Lomi videos now available!

We are delighted to announce the launch of www.HowToLomi.com
I've dug some rare video footage out of my archives to share the various aspects of lomi lomi as taught to me by my teachers. Click on the link above for a FREE 30-min. preview of some of the highlights thus far! Or here is a 3 min. sample:

  

I'm excited because this year I am able to finally create and share some
precious insights into what exactly makes lomi lomi so unique and effective ... Things like the HA Breath of Life, the use of hot stones and pule, the mana and intentions behind the work, and Hawaiian cultural gems from the many elders I've worked along side of.    

Massage Trainings

In addition to retreats in Hawaii and Aotearoa New Zealand, I am working on a range of comprehensive training materials to enable us to deliver a variety of distance learning options to you. Take a moment to browse recent course photos and comments from students.
