BIO

Tiara Aleina De' Lozada, aka 'Tokiko' grew up too fast, too young, for a youth to be shattered by empty promises. Drowned in tears, abusive violence, instability and death lead to a thicker and thicker cement wall.

Never sure what was going to happen next where to go or where to run, seemed like it was always in question in the back of her mind. The one thing that was never in question for her was what she had always dreamed of. Dreamed of being the woman she always knew she could be. Proving everyone else around her and the negative responses she consistently seemed to be running into. The dream was apparent at 4 years old when Tiara was taught karate and martial arts from her father, a 4th degree black belt.

She was disciplined and structured having this at a young age focused her outlets into things she really loved doing and not tolerating anything but. Being heavily influenced by martial arts brought a sense of self worth and voice within the pain Tiara grew up with.

Tiara’s grandmother was a huge influence into a creative path, she showed her grand daughter theatre, musical plays, sewing, crafts, history & art. Her grandmother would send her to theatre workshops for the summer and classes because she knew how talented in many aspects how creative Tiara’s soul is.

Through theatre arts, acting and dancing allowed individuality and creative freedom. Nothing could get in the way and mislead Tiara from accomplishing her passion and dreams through her creative mind she knew anything was possible.

Growing up in different cities in the country inspired a cultured and diverse lifestyle driven to surpass the daily average. Today, Tiara continues her martial arts training in many forms as a godan (black belt 5th degree ), from stunt choreography, acting, and weapons training as well as teaching women and children specializing in self defense workshops and kickboxing seminars. Alongside with modeling and acting, Tiara has been seen around the world from magazines, covers, articles, commercials, media, and featured film. She credits her modest attitude to her roots of Aloha Spirit and amazing support from her World Black Belt Hall of Fame husband, Master Kaha Nikko De'Lozada, “I wouldn’t have been able to re-live my passions as a child and continue to grow, learn & develop without the support, drive and encouragement from my loving husband.” Nikko & Tokiko both continue to celebrate their lives together sharing each passion as a way of life in martial arts, fashion, story telling & creating new ideas for feature film and gaming within the divisions of their company Tokiko International.
