ABOUT ALH
OUR MISSION
The mission of ʻAhahui Lomilomi Hawaiʻi is to perpetuate the Hawaiian/Polynesian Healing Lifestyle through an educational foundation of Hawaiian/Polynesian cultural and traditional protocols, knowledge and wisdom as shared by our Kūpuna and Kumu. Some protocols include Pili ʻUhane (Prayer and Spirituality), ʻIke Kuʻuna (cultural exploration - hands-on activities), Moʻokūʻauhau (traditional - generational, lineal, and family knowledge), Moʻolelo (stories), and ʻŌlelo Hawaiʻi (Hawaiian Language) expressed through the ʻŌlelo Noʻeau (Hawaiian Proverbs and Poetic Sayings).
