Lomi Practice Days

The Lomi practice days are like workshops and take place in small groups of max. 6 – 9 participants (depending on the workshop) under the direction of Florian Pfitzner with the support of an assistant. Here we focus intensively on one aspect of the training. The focus is on the technical execution of the Lomi, without forgetting the emotional part.

Fine tuning

(from module 1)

In this workshop, we want to devote ourselves entirely to the “care of our tools”. By “tools” we mean the various techniques. Because these convey the love that makes up Lomi.

Precision can create clarity and clarity helps us when we want to go deeper. In short: it is easier to work with good and sharp “tools”. Hence fine-tuning.

You can choose two techniques per page. Perhaps because they are difficult for you, you want to explore them a little further or simply to give them the finishing touches. In any case, Flo will be at your side and work with you to find the right way for you.

contact and trust

(from module 1)

In this workshop, I would like to create a space with you in which we can immerse ourselves in a deep and constant contact full of the spirit of exploration. We will practise creating and maintaining connection.

We will use the power of the breath to get out of our heads and into our bodies, which anchors us firmly in the here and now, even in intense situations.

For one day, we want to put aside the past and the future in order to stay in the moment. Because only in the moment can we be in contact, which creates the trust in which the Lomi can unfold its full effect.

deep

(from module 1)

In this workshop, I would like to go into depth with you in the truest sense of the word.
We will practise using our own body weight in a controlled way during the massage in order to use our range of touch from the uppermost layer of skin to the fascia tissue and deep into the muscles. With playful curiosity, we can banish the fear of pain and invite a relaxing sense of well-being.

Simple techniques of traditional Thai massage will support us on our way to an intensive Lomi. All of this is done with loving attentiveness and a childlike spirit of exploration.

Whale

(ab Modul 2)

The whale is one of the most important, but also one of the most demanding techniques in our Lomi “toolbox”. Numerous variations can be derived from it. Because of this complexity and diversity, I would like to dedicate an entire day to the whale.

In this workshop, we take a lot of time to dive into the depths with the whale. The first half of the day is all about the basic shape, in the second half we play with variations.

Rotations

(from module 3)

We will repeat and practise all the turns you have learned so far in detail. In addition, you will learn variations and develop individual adaptations that you can apply specifically to different body types.

As a special bonus, further turns will be shown, practiced and we may even develop completely new ones together.

Lomi in Motion: Joy of playing

(from module 4)

In this workshop, we take a lot of time to dive into the depths with the whale. The first half of the day is all about the basic shape, in the second half we play with variations.

Hello, I´m Flo.

I started my Lomi training with Anja and Jana in 2018 and enthusiastically completed all the modules in one go. Well equipped with Lomi knowledge, I decided to expand my skills in 2020 with Thai massage training. This was very instructive, but didn't touch me as deeply as the Lomi did.

Back in Berlin I repeated 2 modules of the Lomi training Berlin. Thanks to Anja and Jana's continuous training, they had developed remarkably.

After that, Anja and Jana repeatedly asked me if I would like to assist. I didn't think I could do it at the time. But during Ohana Week 2021, I was able to develop the necessary self-confidence and finally say yes.

Since then, I have assisted with pretty much every module and have been training as a Lomi teacher since 2022. In addition, I have started to develop and offer my own practice days / workshops under the umbrella of Lomi Training Berlin. Here I let my personal signature flow in and enjoy passing on what has also helped me in my learning process.

The Lomi has changed my life. Through it, I have grown both inwardly and outwardly. I have discovered depth, joy, and peace within myself, where there was often chaos before. It flows through and shapes my life — not just as a massage, but as a philosophy.
