Ojasvin & Waimaania · Maori Shamans
Do you feel
at home
on Earth?
Take your time. The question is more profound than it seems.
Too sensitive
for this world?
People have told you this gently, sometimes with irritation. And you've ended up believing it.
You pick up on things others don't notice: the tension in a voice, what's left unsaid, the mood in a room before anyone has spoken. In the evening, you come home, drained, without knowing how to explain it.
- ·Emotions that well up without warning, tears, tremors, anger you don't know what to do with
- ·You carry old burdens you can't quite put your finger on: inherited fears, recurring patterns, a weariness that won't go away despite rest
- ·You feel as though you belong to something greater, but you don't know how to live that out in practical terms in this life
You've read, meditated, sought advice, and worked on yourself. And despite all that…
Why hasn't everything you've tried been enough?
Because it was all aimed at your mind.
Books, therapies and meditation speak to the mind. What's holding you back isn't there. Waimaania puts it bluntly: it's lodged in the body, in your posture, in the way you hold your breath.
The Grandmother Healing Haka®, on the other hand, doesn't explain. It enters through rhythm, movement and the voice. And because we play with it, it slips past the defences built up in childhood — where almost everything became entangled.
If you've ever danced it with them, you'll recognise the difference.
More than just a problem,
it's a call.
It all began with this realisation, following years of teaching around the world. Ojasvin puts it this way: “Many cultures have been uprooted, by war, by colonisation.” The connection has been severed. And millions of people like you are now searching for that lost connection, often without even realising that's what they're looking for.
“For me, it starts with the roots. When you dance the Healing Haka®, it grounds you. It connects you to that fire, to that deep essence.”
Waimaania Iris Haeusermann Davis
When you ask yourself these questions about your place on Earth, it is this ancient connection and this lost memory that you are seeking.
Fortunately, Indigenous peoples, and the Māori culture in particular, have managed to keep these memories, traditions, practices and connections alive. By connecting with their ancestral wisdom, we allow ourselves to reconnect with our own roots.
A family tradition
The Grandmother Healing Haka® reconnects you,
through the body, to your inner wisdom.
In 1988, Ojasvin was initiated by his ancestors to carry on the wisdom of his tradition. Ten years later, Ojasvin returned from an Earth Celebration, a gathering of all cultures and traditions, with the words “our diversity is our wealth” to his grandmother Mere Tewake Tana, and together they created the Uri Marama Toa Haka, which was something that had not existed in this way before: a haka intended for healing. The first of its kind.
In 2003 Ojasvin met Waimaania, who came from a professional background of dance, teaching and therapy, and together they decided to bring Uri Marama Toa's message to the world and co-created the Grandmother Healing Haka® practice.
Traditionally Haka was not written or recorded: it was passed down by word of mouth within the Whanau, the extended family. Ojasvin is the eldest of a line of 53 grandchildren. Twenty years later, Ojasvin and Waimaania have been teaching it in nearly twenty countries all around the world.
For some years now they have been seeking to find the essence of what they are teaching, something much shorter than Uri Marama Toa, which can be accessible, powerful and easy to learn for everyone. And here it is: Hono Hononga - Grandmother Healing Haka®, for the first time and available from the comfort of your own home.
It is much more than a dance; it is truly a prayer and ceremony in motion. Every word, every gesture, every rhythm is directed towards a very specific form of intelligence and is fully expressed by coming alive through the body. It is there that traumas and repetitive patterns are lodged, and it is there that the Grandmother Healing Haka® works deeply.
“Trauma is stored in the body. And by performing the Healing Haka®, this sacred language, these rhythmic movements, we can bring deep-seated traumas to the surface and transform them.”
Waimaania Iris Haeusermann Davis
By reconnecting deeply with the first breath (Ha), with the life force, the Grandmother Healing Haka® connects you to your ancestors and to everything that came before you.
By creating the spark of fire (Ka), we draw upon your deepest nature, your reason for being here. It is an invitation to truly take your place.
“I don't think I would have survived my life if I hadn't believed there was a reason to be here. And I truly believe that every person on this planet has a soul's purpose. Because otherwise, why be here?”
Ojasvin Kingi Davis
You know them.
Here's why they're opening this online programme.
Ojasvin Kingi Davis
Maori Shaman · From Aotearoa, New ZealandA Maori from the Ngaitupoto, Ngatihine and Ngapuhi tribes, initiated by his ancestors in 1988 to carry on the wisdom of his tradition, Ojasvin is the eldest of a line of 53 grandchildren. In 1998, he co-created the Uri Marama Toa Grandmother Healing Haka® with his grandmother, Mere Tewake Tana. For over 20 years, he has been teaching in nearly 20 countries.
Waimaania Iris Haeusermann Davis
Shaman · From SwitzerlandWaimaania means “she who transforms what is in darkness into light”. A graduate of Maori Karanga, initiated in her childhood in healing practices, she has developed teaching methods accessible to Westerners, bridging ancient wisdom with the needs of the modern world, drawing on her own long journey of healing.
Together, they teach that human beings have three centres of consciousness: the belly, the heart and the head. The Grandmother Healing Haka® is one of the few tools capable of awakening them all simultaneously. The more the dance is practised, the more it touches what Ojasvin calls the “codes of evolution” inscribed in the body's cells.
“Find yourself and shine. We need you. Every person here is truly needed. There is a unique place for each person; it cannot already be taken. Find it.”
The Hono Hononga programme is part of this philosophy shared by Ojasvin and Waimaania, representing a further step forward and a continuation of the journey already undertaken.
“For over 20 years, we have been sharing the Healing Haka® all over the world, in France, Switzerland, Belgium and New Zealand. Always in person, always in small groups. It was our friend Sarah Diviné who paved the way for us to offer, for the first time, an online programme, fully translated into French. This is a first for us. And we are delighted to be experiencing it with you.”
Ojasvin Kingi Davis & Waimaania Iris Haeusermann Davis
A 5-month journey
to the heart of the Spiral
A monthly session featuring 1 hour 30 minutes of live teachings shared by Ojasvin and Waimaania, sacred movements and exclusive activities. A profound journey, at your own pace and with guidance over 5 months.
Have you ever taken part in a seminar or workshop with Ojasvin and Waimaania? This programme is far from being a repeat of anything they have taught before. Each direction (East, South, West, North, Centre) leads you to delve deeper into the heart of the elements you have already encountered, complemented by others. It is an invitation to strengthen, refine and enrich many aspects of your understanding. The monthly format and the continuity over five months create something unique: gradual integration and ongoing depth within yourself.
Details of a session“We do a lot of role-play in our seminars. Through role-play, we go straight back to childhood, and that's where most trauma occurs. When we perform the Haka, we break down all barriers. And suddenly, we rediscover our joy.”
Waimaania Iris Haeusermann Davis

Session 1, East: Purification through Fire
8 October 2026 · The meaning of family and everyday consciousnessOjasvin and Waimaania will guide you, through the Pepeha, to discover a special connection to your lineage, your family, your roots and your origins. You will then get to know one another, forge bonds as you would within a family, and purify yourselves together to sow the first seeds. This evening will also be an opportunity to learn the first part of a unique healing Haka, specially created to accompany this programme: the Haka Hono Hononga. Come and set in motion everything that makes you who you are, and experience that unique sense of belonging to a Whanau, family in the Maori tradition.
Session 2, The South: Feeling through your body
12 November 2026 · Living fully in your embodiment to manifest and ground your visionOjasvin and Waimaania will share valuable tools for connection to help you return fully to your body. Through exercises as well as meditation, and always in connection with elements drawn from the rich Māori tradition, you will be able to experience a new way of manifesting your presence in the world. Powerfully grounded, you will then be ready to discover a new stage of the Haka Hono Hononga.
Session 3: The West, Water and the Depths of Consciousness
10 December 2026 · Diving into your emotions and clearing your mindWaimaania and Ojasvin will lead a powerful water ceremony which you too can take part in, at the same time, from your own home. They will also share Wai-Ariki, a song connected to the ocean that releases emotions. Guided by what may be a whole new understanding of emotions, you will be able to immerse yourself in the next part of the Haka Hono Hononga and thus experience a little more deeply the interconnection of the various elements discovered so far.
Session 4: The North, the Spirit of Air and the Ancestors
7 January 2027 · Rediscovering the ancestral connectionOjasvin and Waimaania will guide you through practices designed to help you fully feel the deep connection to your ancestors, the spirit of the breath of life that dwells within you, and your link to ancestral wisdom. Fully connected to this spirituality and energised by this deep connection, you will have the joy of being led to discover the final part of the Haka Hono Hononga.
Session 5: The Centre, the Ether, or when the circle becomes a spiral
11 February 2027 · Returning to the Heart, to OnenessIt is when all the elements come together that the circle is complete and continues its journey into the infinite Unity at the heart of the spiral. During this closing evening, Ojasvin and Waimaania will guide you through this rediscovered unity. It will also be an opportunity to celebrate and acknowledge the journey you have undertaken to open the door to this unity, which itself becomes a passage. A powerful shared moment to mark the journey you have experienced and to delve deeply into the new questions that may arise within you.
What they say
All over the world, in France, Switzerland, Canada, Belgium and New Zealand, hundreds of people have experienced the Grandmother Healing Haka® at Ojasvin and Waimaania's workshops and seminars. Here's what they had to say.
Published in Inexploré Magazine“I could compare my first encounter with the Healing Haka® to a tsunami of emotions and sensations, shaking my whole body and awakening what was just waiting to come alive within me, something I'd buried under tons of conformity and years of suffering. It was such a revelation for me that I practised seminar after seminar. My inner life was unfolding, and my outer life was transforming. I was activating my “sacred geometry”, and this had a direct impact on my surroundings. I have come to terms with my body; I feel more centred, freer to be myself, reconciled with my ancestors and more alive. I no longer feel too small in this world, because I know that I am part of it and that I have my rightful place in it.”
Nathalie, France“Ojasvin and Waimaania, and their Healing Haka® teachings, have transformed my life on every level. Their presence radiates magnificent love, light, and power. I feel more present within myself; my energy and vibration are rising. They have the ability to bring forth the divine and the sacred in a simple, grounded way, yet with a level of power and light I have rarely experienced. Since following them and practising the Healing Haka®, I have embraced and affirmed who I am, bringing increasing sacredness and awareness into my daily life. They know exactly how to press the “button” that helps you release trauma and fear, subsequently welcoming you into a space of incredible love and safety, because their goal is to empower you to be fully yourself. What I cherish most is the humility and joy with which Waimaania and Ojasvin continue to walk their own path. They are beings of light whom I deeply cherish, and I am blessed to have them on my journey.”
Thomas S., Drôme, France (translated from French)“The synergy between Ojasvin and Waimaania is quite simply fantastic. They complement each other perfectly and enrich the group with their spirit.”
“When I dance one of the Healing Haka®, an inner weaving begins within me. A weaving that I cannot explain in words. I simply feel that, with great subtlety and gentleness, a weaving begins. And at a certain point, often completely unexpectedly, a fabric rises from the depths of my being to the surface, in the form of my own inner wisdom, in the form of energy, joie de vivre or even sadness, which can finally be released. I do not yet understand these things, but I feel that they set me free and that I am increasingly finding my own inner peace with my life. For this, I am infinitely grateful.”
Jennifer D., Lübeck, Germany (translated from German)“Meeting Ojasvin and Waimaania has been a blessing that has transformed my life far beyond what words can describe. Through their big hearts, their immense wisdom and their extraordinary way of being, they have guided me back to the sacred and to myself.”
“Their teaching is a living teaching, which has entered my very cells, lives in my heart and continues to transform the way I experience every moment of my daily life. I have rediscovered a greater sense of unity, peace and a connection with my body that I had never known before, as well as a joy in being alive on this Earth that I never thought I would be able to feel.”
“They have helped me rediscover within myself treasures that life had hidden deep inside. And every time I return to their teachings, I find exactly what my soul needs at that moment.”
“I am eternally grateful to them for this magical encounter.”
Cécile M., Jura, Switzerland“For me, it was a pleasant surprise when I first encountered the Healing Haka® many years ago. I really didn't know what to expect when Johnny asked me to take part. But when I met Ojasvin at the festival site, along the River Fraser, and saw the two of you performing, I knew I had to find out what it was all about.”
“For me, as a carpenter who works mainly amongst men, it was wonderful to be exposed to aspects of the Healing Haka® that blended masculine and feminine energies. In our Healing Haka® Whanau, there was an abundance of feminine energies, and I found myself stepping forward and taking my place as a man, opening my mind and soul to the teachings of Ojasvin and Waimaania.”
“I feel that I have broadened my spiritual understanding and opened myself up to new possibilities over the last 13 years of learning with the Healing Haka®. The practice and knowledge gained through the Healing Haka® have led me and our Whanau to return time and time again, as we have invited our teachers back into our lives on numerous occasions. We are all very grateful that they have come back to us from the other side of the world, in Canada, whenever we have called on them.”
Travis, Canada“These years together, the initiatory retreats in Aotearoa, have opened me up to myself, allowing me to reconnect with my ancestors and to integrate this into my body and into my daily actions.”
“On my life's journey, my encounter with you, with Mother Earth, Father Sky, and with the strength and diversity of the Whanau has guided me to where I am today.”
“I continue on my path: always dancing, singing, connected to my ancestors and to Life, the divine essence in all things, encounters, the Living. Our paths will cross again… I leave it open to the universe for whatever is meant to be!”
Valérie L., France (translated from French)
Testimonial
Arnaud Riou
Author, shaman, speaker · +400,000 followers · Friend of Ojasvin & Waimaania for over 10 yearsWhat Arnaud Riou says about Ojasvin and Waimaania:
“In these such sensitive times, we need people who inspire us; we need leaders. With Ojasvin and Waimaania, I see them growing; I see that they practise what they preach. It's not just that “they do a good job”: it's their very way of life that they share. When they're somewhere, all you have to do is be who they are, and that radiates out to everyone.”
“What they offer isn't just spirituality or personal development: it's the idea of a clan, of being together, of a group, of a community. And they really do deliver on that. And we really need that today.”

The real questions
to ask before you decide
Are the sessions held in French?
Ojasvin and Waimaania teach in English, the language they've been using for twenty years. A translator is present at every session and makes every teaching point, every exercise and every nuance accessible in French, in real time. You won't miss anything.
I can't dance. Is this really for me?
The Grandmother Healing Haka® isn't a choreographed routine you need to master. As Waimaania herself says: in their seminars, there are always two right feet and two left hands, and that's perfectly fine. What matters isn't the precision of the movement, but your presence. As soon as the rhythm begins, the judgement of the mind falls silent.
I don't speak Māori. Will I be lost when it comes to the various terms used?
Some of the teachings shared by Ojasvin and Waimaania are rooted in concepts from the Māori tradition, the name of which is mentioned. The richness behind these terms is such that it needs to be explained and elaborated upon. So you have nothing to worry about; whatever you hear will be explained to you. This is a living teaching, intended far more to be experienced than to be memorised.
How is this different from a video found online?
A video captures only a single moment in time, a specific topic. Here, the programme is designed as a journey, a continuous process. Each session includes exclusive teachings from the Māori tradition, live guided exercises and genuine interaction with the founders.
Nor is the programme limited to the live sessions, as the practices provided to support you between sessions also help you maintain the connection throughout the five months. The transmission flows through your body in motion, through real-time guidance, and through the bond and connection with the group.
How much space do I need at home?
About two square metres, enough to stretch your arms and take a few steps. A living room, a bedroom or an office will do. The main thing is to be able to move freely and not be disturbed for 1 hour 30 minutes.
What if I miss a live session?
Each session is recorded and sent to you two days later, along with the month's ritual video, the full transcript and the ebook. The pace of one session per month is designed to give everyone time to integrate the experience.
Imagine your life
after encountering the Spiral
After completing this programme, you'll leave with a unique sense of having tapped into a special connection and experienced a sense of belonging to the Whanau for five months. You'll have discovered a new way of fully inhabiting your body, your emotions and your mind, enabling you to live your life even more fully and celebrate the breath that animates you.
This journey is an immersion into a different way of approaching your life. It is not just another theory; it is a path towards unity. And on this path, you are not alone. You are guided, supported and part of a community. Carried by the intensity and richness of the connection with the group, from the comfort and safety of your own home.
A door that
didn't exist
For the past twenty years, receiving this teaching has meant travelling. A seminar, the journey, staying overnight, dates set well in advance. It's all quite a lot to organise.
This is the very first time that Ojasvin and Waimaania have pioneered an approach that requires no logistical arrangements. Five sessions, from the comfort of your own home, a gentle presence to guide you over five months, a unique pace that face-to-face sessions simply cannot offer.
Be part
of the adventure
By joining the Hono Hononga programme, you're above all treating yourself to a rendezvous with your true self and a connection to a community! Rediscover that connection, inhabit your body, feel your emotions, listen to your mind and return to wholeness. A remarkable journey and a sacred journey, to be experienced from within, from the comfort of your own home.
