At Halau O Limaloa we practice and perfect Iwi’ula Style Lomilomi. The Kumu (teacher), ‘O Kana’iaupuni Iwi’ula, is Kanaka Maoli (Native Hawaiian) and has been given the Kuleana by his ‘ohana to teach Lomilomi as he was taught by his Kapunas. This is a very old, traditional and sacred style of lomilomi, unlike any other. This style utilizes two distinctly different forms of lomilomi, lomi kino and lomi kahea.

KULEANA, responsibility. You are responsible for everything that you do and there are guidelines and protocols, which define both your place and your responsibility. The philosophy of KALAMA is built directly from the four tenets. They are:. First and foremost, HO’OMAKAUKAU. Created by Leiahi Design.

Lomilomi is an old Hawaiian Healing Modality, meaning to break into small, then smaller pieces. Lomilomi is not a massage. In fact, the only thing that is similar to massage is that it is viewed as a hand to body technique. Although the hands touch the body, Lomilomi is much more than a massage.

In 1972, Kumu was asked by his kupuna to teach classes in the old way. He was a Reluctant Kumu. It took him 20 years to be persuaded to teach. His reluctance was due to having been brought up in a family which held onto old traditions AND their protocol. How was he going to be able to bridge the many ravines of understanding? The kulana could be overwhelming. The depth of the kuleana would be tremendous. Never before were his family’s traditions accessible by others, Hawaiians and non-Hawaiians. Halau O ...
