Honestly, I don't think of Hama as a villain. She was a woman born into a world targeted repeatedly by the Fire Nation. Years of fear and defending her home would have done a number on her. Imagine the torture and inhumane conditions she lived in for years in the Fire Nation prisons. And since full moons come about once every month, Hama had a limit of 12 training sessions a year. The pain, suffering, and mental strain must have been unimaginable.

Another point would be desperation. I imagine since Hama was the only one who lived on, the Fire Nation must have been killing off the prisoners one by one, or just starving them to death. Hama probably knew her number was coming up, so she utilized the technique.
