The Institute of Living Aloha is a Hawaiian wisdom and bodywork school offering sessions and trainings across QLD, NSW, ACT, and VIC.
Founded by Charlie Snow, our school is devoted to bringing healing, love, and light into the world through the practical application of Hawaiian teachings. Charlie has over two decades of experience and thousands of client sessions, and continues to study closely with Hawaiian Kūpuna and Kūmu. Charlie teaches Spiritual Hawaiian Lomilomi Massage with permission from Kumu La‘au Lapa‘au Sylvester Keiliwaliu Kamaka Iki Ali‘i Pa‘akaula Kamoa Kepilino (Papa K).
Alongside Charlie, our trained teachers and practitioner team help carry this work forward. Each has been personally taught and mentored within our lineage, and all engage in ongoing professional development. Where possible, they continue learning directly with Hawaiian Kūmu, stewarding this sacred work with humility, reverence, and accountability.
Our mission is to help people awaken to their true nature and live from a place of aloha — with integrity, connection, and joy. We create inclusive, safe, and welcoming spaces where all genders, backgrounds, and experiences are honoured, supporting individuals to step into their truth, embody their power, and consciously co-create a world rooted in love and compassion.
