I can't recommend this workshop enough. It was very hands on and a once in a lifetime experience. I never imaged being able to create a beautiful pounamu taonga that I could gift to someone special. Maha, Laura & Destiny were very friendly, approachable, helpful, and comedic!

Learning the entire process of creating pounamu taonga was amazing. Very meditative work, in a relaxed environment. Really easy-going, knowledgeable, supportive teachers, too. Came away at the end of the day with taonga ātaahua.
