- Mahara McKay -

"From an early age, my passion for truth, love and freedom has motivated me to explore spirituality, sexuality, tantra, and shamanism. I provide sacred spaces to support individuals to connect to their instinctual wisdom, power, freedom and love, integrating the forgotten and repressed aspects of their being.

My fire and remembered wisdom from my Maori roots, my determination and discipline from my Swiss roots and my immense devotion to the Great Love, will lead you into a journey full of depth, wildness, liberation, and celebration for the Soul.

My purpose is to be in service for the greater good. I look forward to sharing my love and medicine with you."

MAHARA MCKAY

Mahara McKay was born in 1981 and raised in New Zealand to a Swiss mother and a Māori father from the Ngāti Toa tribe — the same tribe as the legendary warrior and composer of the Haka “Ka Mate”, Te Rauparaha.

From a young age, Mahara was recognized as an "old soul" by her Māori elders. Her great-grandmother was a revered priestess and healer, and her paternal uncle was adopted by the Lakota, a Native American tribe — reflecting a lineage deeply connected to spiritual wisdom and healing traditions. It was perhaps inevitable that Mahara would discover her own calling in her early thirties while traveling the world.

During the early years she spent living in Switzerland, Mahara became disconnected from her spiritual roots. However, her journey to India marked a profound turning point, guiding her back to the essence of her heritage. Since then, she has dedicated herself to traveling internationally, creating sacred spaces where people are invited to heal and transform through the profound practices of Tantra and Shamanism.

Her talent is the art of transforming the soul’s essence. —turning heaviness into light, fear into trust, and doubt into love. She also guides others in awakening a sacred sexuality that is deep, healing, and whole. With an open heart, she walks life’s path in truth and tenderness, listening to the wisdom of nature, and always returning to stillness… returning to Source.

Mahara's transformative group seminars - where participants are invited to meet themselves and others in their true greatness with honesty - have been deeply valued by many.
