"Releasing your body's freedom activating your inner strength, by connecting mind & Body through movement and play" 

About me

Hi, I’m Daina Kahu, a woman on a mission to help you have an HONOURING  RELATIONSHIP with your body through movement, connection and play so that you can have a QUALITY PHYSICAL EXPERIENCE through life.

As a former military physical training instructor (PTI) where I made sure sailors were fit to sail and fight, I understand how RESILIENT human bodies are.

Having spent time with children at an outdoor recreation centre, I know how important structure is for children to be able to FLOW, EXPRESS and PLAY.

I also spent time working with the elderly as a Chiropractic Technical Assistant (CTA), where they taught me that all they wanted to do is to “feel" sound again. They were willing to hand over their health to someone else in the hope that they would be able to FEEL STRONG, move with ease and play again!

Finally, working in commercial gyms (PT) exposed me to an uglier side of fitness. It showed me just how far removed “health” really was in the Health and Fitness Industry, where marketing focuses on the ego. We are getting more and more people to concentrate on the external body without any regard for the INTERNAL BODY.

I’ve come to realise that we all reside in a body that is, without doubt, the most DURABLE, INTELLIGENT, authority on the planet. When we NOURISH it correctly, it can give us the most fulfilling experience while here on earth.

I also believe we can MOVE WITH EASE, FEEL STRONGLY CONNECTED and PLAY throughout our entire lives no matter our age or any other limiting belief we decide to place in front of ourselves. We must take OWNERSHIP of our SHIFT, now!
