Manawa Mini Festival – A Night of Movement, Music & CommunitySaturday 28th of Feb | 6-11pm | Tāmaki Makaurau
Join us for an evening of soulful connection, movement, and nourishment as we come together for Manawa’s next Mini Festival, a celebration of wellness, embodiment, and community in the heart of Tāmaki.
We’re building more than just events — we’re growing a community rooted in heart centered living, embodiment, self expression and compassion.
This is a space to reconnect with yourself and others, and to explore what it truly means to live from the heart.
Our evening journey will include:
Yoga
A gentle practice to arrive fully in your body and prepare the ground for movement.
Ecstatic Dance (90min DJ set)
Let go and move freely in a safe, judgment-free space guided by deep, earthy beats and uplifting soundscapes.
Sound Healing
A soothing integration experience to rest, reflect, and settle the energy stirred through the dance.
Chai & Kai
Enjoy warming chai and nourishing kai in community — time to connect, share, and be held in warmth.
Whether you're a seasoned dancer or brand new to the space, you're welcome here.
This is for anyone seeking deeper connection to self, to others through movement and meaningful conversations.
Let’s cultivate a community where we live from the heart.
He manawa o te tangata.
The heartbeat of the people.
With love,
The Manawa Team
Manawa
At Manawa, we’re on a mission to build a community without judgment or competition. Instead, we want to create an environment filled with love, kindness, and respect towards oneself and others.
Our events are all about self expression through ecstatic dance and the arts connecting us to ourselves, to be guided by our hearts, we belief that each of us has a unique heartbeat, connecting us through frequency and energy.
Together, we can create a space where everyone feels valued and heard, and where the heartbeat of the people is felt in every interaction, and where we arrive at the realisation that we are one with the world and the universe.
He manawa o te tangata. The heartbeat of the people.
