Whakapaingia, the founder of Koha Yoga is a highly skilled specialist in making union with the body, mind and spirit allowing, life’s purpose and passion to come to surface. Whakapaingia’s indigenous Polynesian ancestry, inspired the creation of, “Koha Yoga” where his Maori warrior roots blend with what is ideal for all yoga practitioners, the “spiritual warrior.”
Whakapiangia is a Certified Hatha Yoga Teacher and Thai Massage Practitioner. Four years ago, when Whakapaingia arrived in the United States, after being a warrior in his 25-year career of playing Rugby, started to feel the repercussions of his sport injuries. Whakapaingia then learned to become a spiritual warrior, which healed his injuries. Whakapaingia brings the gift of inner harmony and self-awareness offering alignment of attitude and brings action to one’s life. Whether in a flying workshop, a flying koha massage session, or on the mat he will bring guidance that will transform your life.
