Kaitohu Wairua Practitioner Training is a two-level pathway of learning that bridges the wisdom of Te Whare Kura with the living intelligence of the ngahere (forest). Rooted in Rongoā Māori, these wānanga are designed to strengthen your intuitive sight (matakitetanga), deepen your relationship with the rākau (plants), and strengthen your ability to work with mauri as a vibrational force for healing.
Each level unfolds as a return to simplicity and sacred awareness — guiding you to remember your body as a vessel of light and your hands as instruments of divine intelligence.
Through these wānanga, you will learn to listen deeply to the mauri of rākau, to sense the subtle movements of life-force energy within the body and environment, and to align with the natural order of healing that flows through all living things.
Open to all—kairongoā, bodyworkers, counsellors, holistic health practitioners, and those drawn to the ancient ways of healing—no prior experience is needed, only an awareness of your intuition and a heartfelt desire to support the healing of others.
