In the heart of Ōtautahi Christchurch, immerse yourself in a truly meaningful journey—one that nurtures the spirit, fosters connection, and honors the traditions of Aotearoa.
This half-day experience invites you into the world of Māori craftsmanship and storytelling. Under the guidance of master artisans, you will shape, smooth, and polish your own Pounamu (greenstone) taonga —a sacred treasure infused with personal meaning. As your hands work the stone, you’ll also feel a deeper connection to its history, its whakapapa (ancestry), and the energy it carries. A Journey of Connection & Reflection
At We Retreat, we believe in the power of connection— to self, to others, and to the natural world. This experience is more than just a workshop; it is a Wānanga —a space for learning, reflection, and growth. As you craft your Pounamu, you’ll also craft a moment of stillness, mindfulness, and presence, allowing the process to become a meditation in itself. What to Expect
Authentic Māori Wānanga Experience – A cultural journey that intertwines artistry with storytelling
Guided Hands-On Workshop – Step-by-step guidance from expert Māori carvers in a working studio
Your Own Pounamu Treasure – Select, shape, sand, and polish your piece, finishing it with your chosen binding
Sa cred River Blessing – Complete your experience with a blessing at the River Avon, connecting your taonga to its new journey with you
Whakawhanaungatanga (Connection) – Enjoy a shared mid-morning tea, embracing the spirit of togetherness
Allow up to 4 hours for this experience. Starting at 9am - 1pm. This is an opportunity to slow down, be present, and take home not just a handcrafted piece of Aotearoa, but a renewed sense of connection and wellbeing.
Join us in Ōtautahi Christchurch for this deeply enriching and unforgettable experience.
