Club Kahukura
Club Kahukura is our free healthy relationships course for adults who are newly questioning their gender or sexuality, or new to Rainbow community – a chance to explore identity from the ground up, with other people who are on a similar journey.
It’s a really gentle introduction that lets people figure out their own path, and encourages healthy community relationships, open to people over 18 of all genders and sexualities.
This was such an engaging, supportive, collaborative and friendly fun experience and atmosphere, thank you! Club Kahukura participant
For many adults who are questioning or new to Takatāpui and Rainbow communities, this is the first space in which they have felt safe to be themselves, and to start to identify what they want from relationships.
Our trained community facilitators have a range of different Rainbow community belongings. In Kirikiriroa Hamilton, Club Kahukura runs once a week for seven weeks. In Te Whanganui-a-Tara Wellington, Club Kahukura is running for the first time over a weekend on the 18th (evening), 19th and 20th of September.
We talked about some scary stuff but I’m really glad we did. It’s so important. Club Kahukura participant
Club Kahukura (then The Big Qs) was first developed by Hamie Munroe, Bex Fraser and Nathan Bramwell in 2017. It has been running in the Waikato ever since. As well as the current facilitator team of Carole, Oriana and Bex, we are grateful to past facilitators who have contributed to its development: Kelsey Carter, Maluseu Monise, Scarlet Bennett, Slay Way and Cayathri Divakalala.
