About Amy

Kia Ora, Ko Amy toku ingoa ahau.

My name is Amy Watts.

I am a; friend, wife, mama to two, sister, daughter and owner of Hauora Sanctuary.

I was born and raised here in Tauranga Moana. I am though of Nga Puhi and Ngati Hine descent.

I have lived a busy and full life BUT now I crave simplicity in everything I do.

I am a qualified and registered kaiako/ teacher BUT I have given that up to follow my intuition, move to the country, renovate a run down piece of land and create Hauora Sanctuary to share with others. Throughout this journey I also completed a Certificate in Organic Horticulture.

Holistic practises and sustainable values have always been a part of my life. I am a lover of martial arts (karate, boxing and kickboxing) and understand the importance of self care, health, fitness and recovery.

I am a qualified Holistic Massage Therapist and have my Level 2 Reiki Certificate.

I am an earth baby through and through. Nature and being outdoors is my happy place.

I can’t wait to share this space with you!.

“Almost everything will work again if you unplug it for a few minutes, including you.”
