I was totally impressed by Charlie's deep knowledge, integrity and professionalism along with a deep connection

to the ancient Hawaiian teachings. If you want to learn Lomilomi this is the course to do.

This is the most ethical, respectful, consent informed bodywork training you’ll find. I could not recommend

Charlie’s expert guidance and the lineage this work derives from with more confidence.

There is a great deal of support provided after your course so that you really feel ready to offer sessions.

This differs to many trainings available as it acknowledges the presence of continual learning and growth.

The training itself though information dense, is like a warm hug for the nervous system.

A truly transformative experience for yourself and your community. Highly recommend!

Whether you are a massage therapist wanting to add to your toolbox or someone who wants to learn an amazing treatment to share with family and friends. This is one of the most amazing trainings and massage practices I have experienced yet. Charlie is an amazing teacher with years of experience, and having trained in Hawaii

from many elders and wonderful teachers the practice you'll receive carries all the aloha of the lands of Hawaiʻi.

Highly recommend! Mahalo.

The  Spiritual Hawaiian Lomilomi Massage course is hands down stunning.

I have been through many courses in my lifetime, and this was one of the best, if not the best.

Learning the gift of Lomi Lomi massage and the wisdom of Hawaii with Charlie Snow was transformative

and deeply fulfilling. The space they held throughout the journey was gentle, overflowing with Aloha, nurturing and inclusive which cultivated a deep level of shared vulnerability. As a gender diverse person, experiencing Charlie's commitment to fostering gender inclusive language and awareness of diverse bodies was empowering.

I felt that I could bring my whole self to the training, and express myself freely without judgement.

Also, as someone who has experienced trauma and ptsd, their teaching style felt incredibly safe and supportive.

I recommend them wholeheartedly for learning or for receiving the beautiful gift of Aloha.

It is hard to put into words my experience training with Charlie from the The Blisstitute of Living Aloha,

but I will do my best. My journey was a synchronistic surprise and I am SO glad I said yes to the opportunity to attend

the 6-day training in Canberra. The space was held beautifully from start to finish  we had the yummiest vegan food catered and the space that was hired was divine. Add to this the trainer Charlie is 100% the real deal!!

They are able to teach in such a profoundly authentic & grounded way. Absolute gem of a soul!


The course unfolds perfectly moving though the foundational aspects and then into the practical application of the art of Lomi Lomi. And it is an art form. Deeply spiritual, sacred and anchored in Aloha (unconditional love) and Mahalo (gratitude).

I am beyond words. Mahalo to you Charlie for bringing this course to life and living and breathing the Hawaiian values. Keep shining bright rockstar!! My hope is that every single soul gets to experience the magic of Lomi Lomi!

It is AMAZING! If you are on the fence about doing the training or trying Lomi Lomi, just do it!

You will not regret this experience.

Charlie's Lomilomi course is an awesome experience so irresistible I've done it four times now. Witnessing and experiencing the vibration of the group rise more and more each day is just magical. I love to repeat it just for the joy and bliss of being in the sacred space connecting with the energies and sharing the experience with others.

Charlie brings in light to the space like no one else I've ever seen — their reverence for the Hawaiian Kupuna/Ancestors allows such intensely loving and supportive guidance for learners.

I was thinking of Lomilomi massage training for a while and it ended up being much more than I was hoping for.

Charlie is an amazing teacher who creates a space where everyone feels welcome, safe and supported. They're warm, patient and put a lot of attention on the integrity as well as the spiritual aspect of the practice which has been wonderful to learn about. The training itself was structured very well and it allowed me to integrate all the information and the practice quite easily. Charlie's commitment to Aloha is admirable and is definitely inspiring me to continue my journey with Lomilomi even more. I feel very grateful I had the chance to practice with Charlie and I would highly recommend their approach to anyone who wants to learn the depths of Spiritual Hawaiian Lomilomi massage.

As a practitioner of Lomilomi Body Work myself, I can highly recommend this course for new and returning students.

You will develop your ability to listen very deeply and simultaneously provide loving presence for your clients.

You will learn a flowing technique for giving touch which will potentially move the client into a deep relaxation to states of healing at the mental/emotional and trans-generational levels and, one which is truly both beautiful to receive and to give. It is an opportunity to develop as a practitioner by experiencing your own healing and by being witness to a process of restoration in the client through this method. Charlie Snow has been teaching (and giving) Lomilomi for over 18 years with permission from Papa K, respected Hawaiian elder. They are thus held in very high esteem and recognised for their integrity, understanding and volition to pass on the teaching in this way

I have attended Charlie's 6-day Lomilomi training in Melbourne and also experienced a LomiLomi session with Charlie.

I highly recommend Charlie Snow as a practitioner and facilitator of this beautiful modality. The training is perfect for anyone who is interested in personal growth and spirituality. Charlie really embodies the spirit of Aloha through the teachings, connection, loving touch & compassion. I also recommend booking in for a session with Charlie.

Thank you Charlie, for sharing your gifts with the world.

I attended the 6-day introduction to Lomi lomi earlier this year with Charliefrom the Blisstitute. I had been recommended this course by a friendbut nothing I had been told prepared me for the experience I had.

It was incredible to watch the changes that I and my group went throughover the course of the week. We learnt so much more than just a massage technique.Since the course I have been practising lomilomi at a practitioner level and have received so much positive feedback from clients. I cannot recommend the Blisstitute highly enough.
