Welcome to the Hakomi Australia Association

Welcome to the Hakomi Australia Association website. The Association is presently reviewing our role and purpose and while you can still access the website and Members area, we are not accepting applications for membership at the moment. When we have decided on the way forward, we will let the existing membership know the outcome. Until then the website will remain with the exception of the "Become a Member Section".
​The Hakomi Australia Association is a non-profit organisation incorporated in New South Wales. The Association aims to create and support a vibrant, interactive community of people, like-minded in their passion for the remarkable practice of Hakomi.  

​The purpose of this website is two-fold: For professionals trained in the Hakomi Method and as a resource for the public.
