Greetings from Tamara

Dear Student Of Hawaiian Healing Arts,

Greetings and Aloha! In 1973 I studied Hawaiian Lomi Lomi massage with The beloved Auntie Margaret Machado. I feel privileged to have been one of her first students and honored to have received such pure knowledge from the source, before she opened her school. I owe much to Auntie Margaret and I credit her and my Aumakua for the magical life I lead. Auntie Margaret teaches her family's tradition of Lomi Lomi, and her students over the years have added thier own unique intuitive touch to what they learned, myself included. Personally, I feel that it is a compliment to the teacher, however there are many Lomi Lomi practitioners and teachers who disagree, and are claiming that they are the only true representatives of it's original source. My perspective is one that comes directly from my teacher herself. It is Aloha. When one is in the presence of Divine Breath, and truly practicing the spirit of unconditional love that Auntie embodies, then Lomi Lomi remains alive and open to Spirits leading. We are ohana; family. Let all of us who were blessed to have been part of Aunties lineage carry on with her true message; LOVE THE BODY. The clients body, our body, our ohanas body, the earths body, etc. Pure & Simple. Love..................................................

Aloha Nui Loa,

Tamara Mondragon
