Tui Wellness Solutions
Youth empowerment programmes
Due to high demand and long waiting lists, we will not be taking new bookings for 2024
Tui Wellness provides confidence and empowerment coaching for young people. We provide a preventative mental health and emotional and social intelligence service that empowers youth (5 – 18 years) to become successful and confident in today’s world. We exist to help children that are often considered to be ‘under the radar’ in terms of their social and emotional needs, yet lack the self-belief and self-worth to reach their full potential in life.
Since 2018, we've worked with youth to develop tools and strategies for building self-worth, self-belief, a growth mindset, wellbeing, and confidence. Topics regularly covered include: developing communication skills; managing worries and anxiety; increasing school engagement and participation; building relevant social skills; navigating friendships and bullying; self-esteem; flipping negative thoughts; emotional regulation; an attitude of gratitude; developing growth mindset; stress management; developing sensory awareness; understanding who we are; and zones of regulation.
Our vision: to support communities where every young person has the ability and opportunity to create relationships, confidence, and to reach their full potential.
Our mission: empowering youth to become their best by providing them and their communities with education, programmes, role models, resources and support. Providing specially-made programmes to teach young people the skills they need to reach their full potential.
Overview
Kids Club
Empowering confident kids
Kids Club is a weekly class for children aged 5 to 8. The intention for these classes is to inspire your child to believe they can do anything. We develop creativity, self belief, a growth mindset and confidence through discussion, activities and self reflection. We provide an environment for self love, respect and fun.
We cover topics such as expressing gratitude, self-regulation, confident communication, and moving away from self-negativity to help realise our full potential. We work on tools to help kids improve in each area, along with learning communication skills, teamwork, and creating friendships.
Kids Club runs as weekly classes during school term time.

Aroha classes work through discussion, activities, and self-reflection, and look at topics such as friendships, who am I, positive self-talk, confident communication, and a growth mindset. These classes aim to help girls reach their full potential in a positive environment.

Youth Place
School programmes
We provide school-based programmes where we work one-on-one or in small groups with students during school time.

Once tools are learnt in class, support is then provided for teachers to use these tools in the classroom.
About Us
Tui - CEO and Youth Wellbeing Advocate
My name is Tui. I have a background as a qualified registered nurse, and worked for many years providing community care for children and adults with intellectual and physical disabilities. I started Tui Wellness in 2018 as I saw a strong need to help children that are often considered to be ‘under the radar’ in terms of their social and emotional needs, yet lacked the self-belief and self-worth to reach their full potential. Since then I have seen the benefits of teaching young people the skills they need to be their best in the 200-plus children that have been through or are currently attending my programmes. I have completed a Cognitive Behavioural Therapy Practitioners Course, which provides me with another valuable tool to improve wellbeing in children.

Testimonials
My 5 year old daughter Sahara, completed the day workshop with Tui today and she absolutely LOVED it! It was her choice to attend this workshop and was the youngest attendee. She arrived feeling quite shy (she attended alone without her identical twin sister who chose not to do the workshop, so missing her other half), but on pickup she was excited about all the things she had done. Sahara is keen to do more workshops with Tui and her twin sister is also keen to come along.
Myself as a parent really enjoyed seeing the confidence my child had to attend this day without her twin and also the confidence she had to share and write down the wonderful qualities she has. As adults, we look at well-being solutions but as a kid, the importance is more so as they face many challenges growing up. Tui has such a wonderful, calm manner and is amazing with children. Thank you Tui for providing these workshops for the children.
