  In 2012 I was able to finally release a DVD set with step-by-step instructions for a full lomilomi routine. They also include interviews and insights as to what 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 for over 14 years.
 

  

Both DVDs are available to purchase securely here.
