Manawa Hui

Imagine stepping into a vibrant, fun, and welcoming hui (gathering) that feels like a warm embrace for your soul.

A place where you can reconnect with your Manawa (heart/spirit) and body, allowing you to express your authentic self and share your expression with others.

This is more than just an event; it’s a transformative experience designed to connect you deeply with yourself and others through the power of arts and community.

Somatic movement, group activities, story telling and community hang out

Story Telling collaboration with Robin Wachsberger, founder of Tall Poppies

Tall Poppies storytelling is a true, first-person storytelling show that is presented as an open-mic Story Slam.

This show has been inspired by the StorySLAM series at The Moth.

These events takes place in a wide variety of venues and bring 10s to 100s of people together with the intent of allowing the audience to share five minute snapshots of their life based on a common theme.

Stories allow us to make the personal universal, and these engagements are designed as a platform to help build a sense of community out of strangers by sharing their experiences.
