I have this clear memory of you in the red pedal car, doing laps around the garage. Your parents’ van, “The Barbarian,” parked in the driveway I thought it was the coolest thing ever. Years later, Aunty let someone take it for a test drive… and it never came back. Still one of the best stories.

I’ve seen you through many seasons since you were a baby and just like that, I’ve watched you become a father.

After this experience of Mauri Tau, you said to me, “We were born to do this work,” and I felt that.

Thank you for hearing me. Thank you for bringing the sound into te ao mārama.
Thank you for the journey te kore, te pō, te ao, te mārama. Most of all thank you for weaving Mihiroa into the soundscape I felt completely held.

I appreciate you always.

Let’s go Mauri Tau 2.0.

Our words carry universal codes.
There are sounds and vibrations unique to this land and its people and when spoken, they vibrate through your entirety.
This is a collaborative experience a collective return to essence.
We are rewinding to the start

Heart medicine vibes in the whare puawai yesterday. No hands on mahi is what’s needed some days. We all get to rest.

Kia Ora,
From the 22nd of November we will be shifting into a new office space in the lakes. This move means we will have appointments available until early evening.

Over the summer holidays we will work only here, every Tuesday and in the new year potentially Thursday’s as well.

We will not be taking bookings for the month of December for the mount studio. And will revisit days and times in the new year.

Pretty excited for this move. Onwards and upwards.

There is one spot for our next workshop that has been paid forward. Such a beautiful action of reciprocity for the teachings.
I have a list of wahine to pass on to her over the next few days.
If you would like a chance to experience this workshop and might not necessarily have the means than this is your chance.
You can either pm me with your why? Or drop a message on this post.
This spot will be drawn Monday. looking forward to sharing space.

13th November foundational mirimiri/bodywork.
This workshop you will be learning foundations in traditional bodywork and how it is used to shift, recalibrate, and align.
This is a medium that is used in my mahi as a tool of transformation. Like Rongoa rakau bodywork does not need any help from other modalities. It is a whole universal healing system all on its own.
Looking forward to sharing space.
