Manaaki Movement
Embodiment Education
Embody your authentic expression
Manaaki is a Māori word that represents supporting and caring. Movement is our way of being in the world. Together Manaaki Movement represents our vision to move through the world with care.
As the saying goes “If you want to change the world…start with yourself”.
That is why I'm grateful you're here and excited for the future we are all co-creating together.
Guided by Jade Whaanga,
Founder & Director at Nū Collective
I created Manaaki Movement - Embodiment Education to help people who may be struggling to connect with their bodies. As a Dance practitioner of 15 years, I've been fortunate to learn and experience A LOT when it comes to connecting with the body, overcoming external conditions or stories and learning how to express authentically.

Introducing...
Embodied Elements:
4-week Sensory Journey
A transformative four-week embodiment journey that will take you on a deep dive into the five elements of air, water, earth, fire, and ether.
Through movement, peer-to-peer sharing, journaling, and rituals, you will explore the qualities of each element and how they manifest within your own body and life. This journey will encourage you to express yourself through creative practices and awaken your senses in new and exciting ways.
Join us as we explore the senses, connect with our bodies, and cultivate a deeper understanding of our relationship with the world.
Our program offers a supportive and gentle approach to this transformative work, meeting you where you are and helping you prioritise self-care and commit to a consistent embodiment practice. Whether you're a seasoned practitioner or new to this work, our program is designed to be a brave and inclusive space that welcomes all levels of experience and fosters a sense of community and support.

How we will take this journey...
We look forward to welcoming you to this transformative journey.
We understand that it can be challenging to prioritise self-care and commit to a consistent embodiment practice. That's why Embodied Elements: Sensory Journey was designed to meet you where you are and provide a supportive and gentle approach to this transformative work.
We know that many people have attended workshops or classes in the past but found them to be intimidating or overwhelming. That's why we set the intention to create a brave and inclusive space that welcomes all levels of experience and fosters a sense of community and support.
Additionally, we recognise that life can get busy and it can be difficult to maintain a consistent practice. With our four-week journey, we offer a structured and guided experience that will help you cultivate a deeper connection with your body and the natural world, all while providing the flexibility to participate at your own pace.
If you've been wanting to strengthen the connection you have with your body and bodily awareness, but haven't found the right space or community, we invite you to join us for Embodied Elements: Sensory Journey. Our approach is gentle, supportive, and inclusive, and we are dedicated to helping you deepen your connection to yourself and the world around you.
