Kind words people have said about the Māori Weaving Experience with Veranoa
Have absolutely loved this experience. Highly recommend. Would definitely do it again 💕
I am grateful for this opportunity and hope I'm able to continue on this journey ☺️
Simply amazing, this is something my Wife and I can do together to pass the time.... Something we can both do with our daughter, maybe set one afternoon a week to do quality family time together.... Learning from you was awesome and you made it look so simple yet achievable, we hope to do the Kete Club one day.... Thank you very much for such an enjoyable and fulfilling journey, fully enjoyed these last few days....

Let's Weave Together
Next to weaving itself, teaching others how to weave is one of my greatest pleasures.
I've introduced thousands of people to the world of Māori weaving and I never tire of the joy it brings those who learn.
It's particularly satisfying to see someone who never had the opportunity to grow up with things Māori, start to feel at ease and more confident simply through learning how to weave a kono or a kete.
So if you thought about joining me to learn but you're not 100% sure then this is an ideal chance to give it a go and see how you feel at the end of the 5 days.
I look forward to sharing the excitement of Raranga with you.
