Our Story
It all began in the summer of 2022 in a small flat in Mount Maunganui. With a trailer, a dream and a passion for community, we built our first mobile sauna in our driveway on a shoestring budget.
We took the sauna down to the beach and quickly discovered how incredible it felt to go between the heat of the sauna and the cool ocean. We invited friends, they invited their friends and soon the whole thing began to grow naturally.
From the very beginning, our focus was on creating a shared space that offered people a deep sense of comfort and a chance to reconnect with themselves, with others and with the natural beauty of Aotearoa.
A few years later, those values remain at the heart of everything we do. We are grateful and excited to continue strengthening New Zealand’s connection to the life-changing practice of sauna.
