He aha te kai o te rangatira? He koorero, he koorero, he koorero! What is the food of leaders? It is communication!

Our programmes explore the possibilities for healing at the heart of this whakatauki by asking - how might we enable whanau to be leaders of our waiora (total wellbeing for the individual and family) by improving our emotional communication?

Kapa Haumanu programmes are specifically designed to enrich and promote a sense of belonging, self-awareness, self-determination, confidence, whakawhanaungatanga, manaakitanga, kaitiakitanga, growth, autonomy, cultural awareness, emotional expression, movement, holistic hauora and healing.

Our mission

Is to ensure that whanau have access to a safe environment and therapeutic experience to explore connection to Te Ao Maaori and themselves.

Our Kaituku Haumanu support whanau through a Kapa Haka program tailored to their emotional and therapeutic needs.
