The facilitators behind the studio

Three locals, one whare on Pahau Avenue. We share facilitation and rotate cohort leads each season.

How we work together

No single facilitator runs every session. You will meet at least two of us during an eight-week cycle—one lead, one support. We document shared notes so your pacing stays consistent when we rotate.
