Meet Pam
Pamela Kamoku is a compassionate, open-hearted, integrative Clinical Somatic Movement Educator, Brain-Centered Health Coach, Personal Trainer, and Certified Mindfulness Coach.
She specializes in somatic brain-based movement education, functional breathing techniques, and mindfulness principles to help decrease perceived stress and restore wellbeing.
Combining years of study with practical easy-to-use tools, Pam guides focused neuromuscular movements, re-learning to breathe, and pausing with awareness to support students in a vital reset that decreases physical pain, anxiety, sleep issues, and other chronic conditions.
“My mission is to educate and empower you with lifelong resources to reclaim your health, self manage pain-prevention, and decrease anxiety while increasing your resilience."
Awareness is key
Pam skillfully helps clients reclaim their awareness of movement and breath (by becoming more mindful and curious) even when they believe they are “too tight,” “too old”, “too injured’, or “too out of shape” to ever get better.
Many of her clients were once concerned they would injure themselves or make things worse if they went to a regular gym or yoga class. With Pam’s gently paced, healing-based individualized sessions and somatic classes, they learned to consciously tap into how their bodies were meant to move and so can you.
Pam serves as your guide and facilitator, gently unwinding the tension and stress created from years of habitual movement patterns and breathing habits; empowering you to feel better as you age.

Care for Yourself
Somatics helps clients build confidence, renew a sense of self, and reclaim personal empowerment by learning to move more freely, with less restriction. Pam guides you to re-map and re-learn forgotten brain-centered movements regardless of your fitness level. This includes athletes and people recovering from serious illness, or chronic physical conditions.
Pam has personally experienced this progress and knows first-hand what it’s like to heal mentally and physically after being in pain. Years of chronic injuries led her to her current profession. Pam has a special interest in stroke recovery and continues to be amazed at how the brain heals itself through re-learning movement patterns, conscious breathing and being in the moment - "**neuroplasticity is alive and well in our hale".
Supporting and educating others toward better health is Pam’s life calling and professional passion. There is no 'one formula’ that works for all. Pam offers individual sessions, group training, workshops and custom programs for corporations and organizations. Her approach supports your unique journey. Pam is dedicated to sharing the aloha she has received and paying it forward to help you thrive in all areas of your life.

**Neuroplasticity: the brains ability to learn and grow at any stage.
