“Mā te mātau ka mārama, mā te mārama ka ora.”

Through knowledge comes understanding, through understanding comes wellbeing.

Kia ora tātou - I am a yoga teacher dedicated to weaving together the wisdom of te ao Māori and contemporary yoga practice.

Since completing my training with Contemporary Yoga Teacher Training in 2022, I’ve been teaching within my community, guiding students to explore the natural connections between these two rich traditions.

My classes weave kaupapa Māori, mindful movement, and breathwork to create spaces of grounding, connection, and curiosity. Through this blend of perspectives, I aim to support students in cultivating presence, balance, and a deeper sense of belonging here in Aotearoa.
