What's on Offer:

Everyone who wants to learn Oli starts with the Foundation Teachings in the PATH TO PAʻA TRAINING so you clearly understand what Oli/Chanting is and how it is part of everyday life, Healing Sessions & in Protocol. In fact, in our Traditional Teachings we do not separate Oli from these Teachings because Oli is one of the Foundation Teachings in its own right. When you understand it, the Mana it connects you to is heart-bursting. You will learn to Oli with the goal of transcending Form. In Path to Paʻa you learn 2-3 Oli depending on your progress. In this Training we take on the next level, building on the Foundation and extending skills and knowledge.
