Biography

Tamara apprenticed with Auntie Margaret in 1972 & 73 until she received her license, #532 from the State of Hawaii on September 30th 1974. There was no formal school then, and Tamara feels honored to have worked one on one with Auntie in order to learn this wonderful healing art.

In 1986 Tamara moved to California from Hawaii and worked at the Radisson River Ridge, home of the L.A. Raiders summer training camp. For 8 years, some of the most respected names in football came to experience Lomi Lomi, a massage technique most of them had never heard of, but quickly learned to appreciate. Tamara's years at the Radisson resulted in building a community awareness of Lomi Lomi and in 1994 she became a California state certified Lomi Lomi massage instructor. In July of 2000 she had the honor of writing the cover story for Massage Magazine. She is also the co-creator of three instructional videos, professionally produced by Bodywork Emporium. Tamara travels worldwide teaching and sharing this ancient healing art, as well as offering private Ho'oponopono sessions in San Luis Obispo county.

Greetings from Tamara ...
