Ko Matawhaura me Rangiuru oku maunga, ko Te Ohautanga o Potakatawhiti me Te Awanui o Kaituna oku awa.

I support your return to balance by honouring te whare tapawhā: hinengaro (mind), tinana (body), wairua (spirit), and whānau (relationships). My practice weaves personal experience, academic learning, and ancestral wisdom, guided by wairua and the teachings of our tūpuna. Tungia te ururua kia tupu whakaritorito te tipu o te harakeke — clear the path so new growth can flourish.

Ko Te Waereti Te Kaha tōku ingoa
He uri nō Tuhoe me Ngāti Kahungunu. Raised in Waiariki (Bay of Plenty), I grew up closely connected to the whenua and surrounded by rongoā Māori within my whānau. Living off-grid shaped my understanding of balance, simplicity, and the natural rhythms of life.
I hold a Level 5 Diploma in Sports Massage and Wellness Therapy, and my approach to mirimiri and romiromi weaves together lived experience, mātauranga Māori, and practical body knowledge. My time in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu has also deepened my respect for movement, resilience, and recovery.
I'm passionate about supporting others toward clarity and wellbeing, holding space that feels calm, grounded, and safe.

Ko Mauao me Tawhirirangi ōku maunga, ko Tauranga te moana, ko Mohaka te awa. Ko Kutaroa me Te Kahu o te Rangi ōku marae, ko Ngāti Tauaiti me Ngāti Pahauwera ōku hapū. Ko Ngāi Te Rangi me Ngāti Kahungunu ōku iwi. Ko Mataatua me Takitimu ōku waka. Ko Awhina tōku ingoa.

As the founder of Ngātahi, my work is dedicated to restoring balance through Rongoā Māori, Spinal Energetics, and breathwork. I weave ancestral knowledge, somatic practice, and wairua guidance to create spaces of deep healing, safety, and authentic connection. My vision is to nurture tūhononga the sacred bonds between people, whenua, and wairua so that wellbeing flourishes not only for individuals, but for whānau and community alike.
