Aloha la Palma Spirit

What we have planned... Hula dance workshops with Yurena Namahana from Tenerife, born and raised in Tenerife, Canary Islands, where she made her stage debut at the age of two to begin an artistic life of dance, singing and performance. From 2006 to 2018, she lived in O'ahu, Hawaii, to connect with her Pacific roots. She completed formal studies in ancestral hula and became the first Kumu Hula, hula teacher, in 2010. She has danced and taught several hula workshops in Hawaii, New Zealand, Japan, Malaga, Tenerife and Gran Canaria. In addition, Yurena Namahana has conducted ceremonies for various dignitaries, including distinguished judges, the Presiding Bishop of the Episcopal Church of the United States, and the Governor of Hawaii. She participated in several important documentaries on hula and for six years was the Kumu Hula at a famous public school in Honolulu, where she taught more than 350 students. Currently, Yurena shares Namahana Aloha through Hula in her classes and performances in the Canary Islands.

Yoga

You can book individual classes or a multi-day programme. Diana Rodríguez. Diana was originally born in Venezuela and moved to California at an early age, where she began practising different types of yoga and later began her studies of the practice of yoga. She is a student and practitioner before becoming a teacher, as she believes that her personal experience with the practice is the best way to reach people and share her knowledge. In her courses, she emphasises conquering the realm of the mind to achieve a unique state of general well-being, and she tries to raise awareness of the importance of making an appointment with our own selves.

Aloha Reiki 

As individual sessions or learning the 3 degrees of Reiki. Alexandra is a Reiki Master, Hatha Yoga teacher and has training in Shamanic Healing. In her sessions, everything flows together in the healing of her clients. Reiki is a Japanese healing method and the word Reiki means universal life energy. Reiki was first practised in Japan and then spread to the West through a Hawaiian woman of Japanese descent. With this application, the self-healing powers inherent in each person are activated and body, mind and soul are harmonised. Through the gentle laying on of hands, universal life energy is transmitted to the recipient. Reiki energy can also be received over long distances. With distant Reiki, the Reiki practitioner reaches the client without the obstacle of space and time, because everything is energy!
