More About Me

TAIORA Trainings

We back the people doing the real work.

Educators. Youth workers. Health workers. Community leaders.

Burnt out from holding space for everyone else?
Worried about rangatahi struggling with anxiety, overwhelm, or disconnection?
Sick of being expected to do it all with no support?

We see you. We’ve got you.

Our courses are made for you — practical, powerful and proven.
Co-designed with rangatahi. Grounded in evidence.
Taught by experts who live what they teach.

No fluff. Just real tools that actually help — for the long haul.

Evidence-based tools

TAIORA teaches various mindfulness-based tools that are scientifically proven and shown to be effective through our mahi with The Kindness Institute, with evaluation results available here.
 

Co-designed with rangatahi

Our courses are shaped by the people who get it - rangatahi leaders who are already leading the mental health charge in their communities. 

Tailored to you

Struggling with rangatahi anxiety or self-doubt? We’ve got you. Navigating the pressure of being an educator today? We’re here to help - with tools that actually work.

 Kirsten - Director

"I found Kristina Cavit and learnt how to stop, relax and concentrate on the important things in life via Mindfulness and meditation. After completing a four-week course, I have balanced out my work with more yoga, more relaxation and more quality time. And I’ve ceased having sleep troubles.” ."

 Hannah - Designer

"I just wanted to say how grateful I am that I got to do your course. I’ve noticed such a difference in how I deal with day-to-day stresses and situations or people I have no control over.  The benefits are massive. So thank you! It’s been a little bit life-changing."

 Dominic - Writer

"This work has helped me not only relax and gain peace of mind, but the yoga and mindfulness has brought me so much relief from pain related to my chronic illness. It's not hyperbole to say that the time spent with Kristina has changed the way I live my life for the better. "
