Course Information

We offer both open level and advanced workshops along with a Practitioner Certificate that consists of three workshops plus one advanced workshop. The Practitioner Certificate qualifies you for professional membership of the Kahuna Training Guild Australia and our insurance agreement with Arthur J Gallagher Natural Therapies insurance.

You also have the opportunity to do our “Master Class” student clinic at the Woodford Folk Festival where we see over 300 clients and students can build up clinic experience under the tuition of instructors and our principal teacher Ki’a’i Ho’okahi Weber. You must have completed a minimum of one open level workshop to be eligible to apply for the student clinic. This is unique to our school and is deeply immersive experience.

Learning Kahuna Bodywork with us is about much more than just the massage modality, the journey in our workshops is one of Self discovery ~ where you will meet and move with all that you are. We teach you how to access your inherent “master skills” through the application of Kahuna Principles and the martial art-style practice of Ka’aleleau. This is how Kahuna Bodywork was originally taught by Kahu Abraham Kawai’i.
