If you feel drawn to bring this workshop to your group or location, you are welcome to reach out. Chelita will work with you to shape the wānanga to your setting, your people, and the kaupapa you hold.
This is an offering carried with aroha, integrity, and deep respect for the traditions it comes from.
A Sacred Space for Remembering
This wānanga is an immersion into the ancient healing ways of our tūpuna — a return to whenua, to wairua, and to the quiet knowing that lives within every person. It is a space where ceremony leads, where tikanga holds us, and where each participant is invited to reconnect with their own mauri.
Chelita carries this work with deep reverence for her whakapapa and the lineages that guide her. She offers this workshop to private groups, organisations, and communities who feel called to experience Māori healing in an embodied, grounded, and culturally respectful way.
