Aloha everyone from Peggy Kemp, Aloha International, Kauai:
We had a wonderful series of summer trainings this year. It is always such a pleasure to meet our students and get to know them. They really become part of our family. Serge started with Hunaquest and a unique group of inspired students, who visibly grew in self-confidence and focus during the week.
Hunaquest was followed by the Advanced Huna Healing Course, taught jointly by Serge and Susan, including some of the same students joined by others from Australia, Switzerland, Nigeria, Denmark and the United States. Each student brings their own energy and manao - thoughts - to the course, and each one adds something special to the energy of the group. The final graduation dinner was a special luau with a spectacular show afterward.
The summer Hula Intensive taught by Kumu Hula Kawaikapuokalani Hewett was a very deep experience for the haumana - students. The small class size fostered an intimate, family-like atmosphere in which they all drew close. They learned 2 dances and a beautiful chant and performed them for family and friends on their final evening. They wore ti leaf skirts and kupee which they had made themselves, and their dedication and focus showed as they shared with us the things they had learned.
Serge taught a one-day Dynamind Technique workshop mid-August. Even though I've been practicing Dynamind with clients for some time, I still learned new things about how to more effectively use this useful healing technique.
Susan continued the exciting summer schedule with a 2-week combined Beginning and Advanced Kino Mana training. Students came from Australia, Switzerland, and Maui. When they come, they show signs of the stress and strains of everyday life. By the time they leave, they are looking so relaxed and happy!
Kawaikapuokalani Hewett ended the summer trainings with a Ho'oponopono workshop, exploring the ancient Hawaiian technique for personal transformation and conflict resolution.
Jutta Hahr, Germany, shares: Next year I am going to teach more or less exclusively for the Paracelsus School in Germany. They have about 50 schools all over Germany and I think we can set standards with the Kino Mana School that Kumu Susan and I worked out a couple of years ago.
There are so many different styles all over Germany that people often don«t know what is better or where to go for a good transforming massage or for learning.
When somebody finds a student from the "Paracelsus Schule" people can know now that this school is connected (through me) to Aloha International, Susan and the standards she set. They learn exactly what I learned from Susan 12 years ago. I am the keeper of that knowledge, and whoever wants to be a teacher ends up meeting Susan in Kino Mana IV in Germany and Kino Mana V in Hawaii. So we can be sure that this knowledge is being seen and completed with Susan's profound knowledge and is being passed on as she taught us.
I also encourage our students to teach at the Paracelsus School in order to pass this style on in Germany.
