### About The Holistic Hub

 The Holistic Hub is a unique wellness events venue in Ōrākei (East Auckland) specialising in holistic health workshops and ceremonies. Housed in the former St James’s Anglican church on 152 Kepa Road, the venue retains its 1957-era architecture . The church’s high A-frame roof and timber beams give the space an airy, cathedral-like feel with a rustic warmth. In total the building (church + adjoining hall) covers about 545.5 m² , making it one of the larger dedicated wellness spaces in East Auckland. It can easily accommodate dozens of participants (roughly 100 or more depending on seating). Unlike a commercial theatre, it has an open-plan hall and function room; its signature features are the towering ceiling, brick walls, and community kitchenette from the old church complex . This setting makes the Hub notable: local communities value it as a peaceful haven where modern holistic practices meet historic ambience. The repurposing of the mid-20th-century church into a wellness centre adds a sense of history and spirituality, linking the area’s past and present. Many attendees comment that the sunlight through the old windows and the quiet wood-paneled interior create a naturally calming workout or meditation atmosphere.

### Events and Programming

 The Holistic Hub hosts a wide range of wellness and creative events, typically focused on health, healing or personal growth. You will find workshops like yoga, breathwork circles, meditation art, tarot and oracle sessions, sound-healing ceremonies, women’s circles and New Moon/Full Moon rituals. Both local practitioners and visiting teachers use the space. For example, internationally known instructor Loren Honey led a women’s breathwork workshop here in August 2022 , and a “Meditative Art – New Moon Circle” community event was held in June 2021 [www.ticketfairy.com](https://www.ticketfairy.com/events-in-orakei/the-holistic-hub#:~:text=Meditative%20Art%20,The%20Holistic%20Hub). Events are usually free or ticketed classes rather than big concerts – in other words, intimate group sessions. Programming appears to run on a part-time schedule (a few events per week or month, not a daily theatre schedule). Recurring gatherings might include monthly meditation circles or yoga series, while special events align with seasonal cycles (e.g. New Moon ceremonies). Ticket prices vary by event: community meet-ups or donation-based circles may be free or by koha, while longer multi-hour workshops typically cost NZ$50–$150. For instance, one breathwork session in 2022 was NZ$70 general admission . Organisers often email or announce programs on health portals and social media when new events are coming up. Because the venue is private, tickets are handled by each event organiser (via Eventfinda, Humanitix, etc.), rather than a box office. Popular events with well-known facilitators can sell out (for example, intensive workshops by Paulo or Loren Honey), so it’s smart to book early. Many events are explicitly reserved for adults (some have R16 age restrictions ) and foster a quiet, reflective vibe. Overall, visitors should expect a calendar filled with yoga classes, breathwork ceremonies, holistic retreats, art therapy, sound baths and similar mind-body offerings – often on weekends or evenings – rather than pop concerts or club nights.

### Tickets and Booking

 Tickets for Holistic Hub events are typically sold online through the event organisers or popular ticketing platforms (like Eventfinda, Humanitix or others). There is no theatre-style box office at the building. To book, find the event listing (via Google search or local event sites) and follow the sign-up link. Popular workshops often go on sale weeks in advance; sign up to newsletters or social media feeds of local yoga/ wellness studios to catch announcements. Since seating is first-come, events can sell out, so it’s best to reserve early. Some hosts offer early-bird pricing or group discounts on multi-session series. Ticket cost depends on the format: short community events may be free (or donation-based), while multi-hour retreats or celebrity-led classes can run $50–$150+. For example, a women’s breathwork ceremony on 21 Aug 2022 was NZ$70 GA . Typically, general admission covers entry only – very few events have tiered “VIP” upgrades (maybe early entry or small gifts). If tickets remain, a few events may allow door sales, but many are pre-registration only. In short, check the event page well ahead of time, buy tickets online if required, and bring your confirmation (mobile or print) on event day.

### Seating and Layout

 The Holistic Hub’s interior is one large open space (mostly flat floor) with flexible seating, not fixed theatre seats. During events, organisers usually arrange floor mats, camp stools or folding chairs in a semi-circle facing the front. There is no balcony; the entire layout is on one level. Good viewing spots are generally towards the centre of the room, with unobstructed sightlines to the teacher or altar area at the front. Because events tend to be participatory (yoga, meditation, etc.), participants often sit on the floor on cushions, so front-central mats are ideal for visibility and acoustics. There aren’t really “bad seats,” but avoid spots where latecomers might enter (near the door) or where audio speakers are less clear (corners). Table seats at the edges may not be used. Acoustically, the high wood-beamed ceiling gives natural echo, so quiet guided events are best done in smaller groups. Most events will use a portable PA or microphone for music or speaking. Lighting is usually soft and warm (often candles or lamps for ceremonies), with no stage spotlight – the entire hall is uniformly lit. For those with mobility needs, you may request seating (a chair can be provided on the day), though most activities happen on the floor. In essence, seating is “general admission” style: arrive early to choose your spot, and there is no seat numbering or VIP section.

### Getting There and Parking

 The Holistic Hub is at 152 Kepa Road (Ōrākei, Auckland 1071), a few blocks north of the Remuera Road corner. By car, head east on Remuera Road and turn onto Kepa Road; the venue is on the left just past the cluster of shops and the Orakei Community Centre. There is a small car park directly in front of the building (roughly 12–15 spaces) . If that is full, additional parking is available slightly further down Kepa Road near the Orakei Tennis Club courts (Kupe Reserve) – just make sure not to block private driveways or courts . Street parking is limited and mostly metered, so allow some extra time at peak hours. Public transport is convenient: Auckland buses #76 and #781 (and the #783 loop) stop at “Kepa Road / Orakei Shops” right by the Z petrol station opposite the venue . From there it’s a short walk south along Kepa Road. Also, Orakei train station (Auckland rail line) is about 500 m up Remuera Road (turn left at Kepa); trains from Britomart run regularly, and the walk in from the station is only a few minutes. Taxis and rideshares can drop you off directly on Kepa Road in front of the building. If driving through afternoon traffic on Tamaki Drive, factor in congestion. In summary, plan to arrive a little early to secure parking or avoid missing your bus, and note that parking on site is free (no parking fees) .

### Inside the Venue

 Upon entry to The Holistic Hub, expect a calm, community-centre atmosphere (not a nightclub). There is usually a single main foyer/entrance. At the door an usher or event host will check tickets and may remind guests to remove shoes before entering the main hall (many classes require barefeet or socks on the mats). Once inside, the space has a warm, rustic decor – wooden floors, soft lighting, and often a small altar or seating at the front for the facilitator. Clothing is casual and comfortable (think yoga or leisure wear). Basic amenities include restroom facilities: the complex includes a kitchen and two toilets in the hall section , plus two bathroom stalls in the older church section (now used for offices). All are located towards the back or sides of the building. There is no staffed coat check or cloakroom, so plan to keep personal items with you. If needed, minimal personal items can be left at your spot (but valuables are best kept close). There is generally no venue bar or cafe inside; outside food/drink is usually not provided (though water fountains or water jug may be available). Some events allow bottled water or herbal tea. Expect power outlets to be scarce; charging your phone may be difficult, so charge up beforehand. During events, the mood is usually quiet and meditative – often with soft music or chants. Visitors often note a fresh smell of incense or essential oils used for ambience. There may be event-related stalls or merchandise tables by the entrance (selling crystals, books or refreshments), but this depends on the organiser. Wifi or mobile reception is not advertised, so do not count on internet access. Keep phones on silent; taking photos or recordings is typically discouraged unless explicitly permitted by the event leader. In short, inside The Holistic Hub you’ll find a simple, open-plan hall: expect a peaceful zen-like vibe, chairs or mats set up on the floor, and friendly, low-key entry and check-in procedures.

### Nearby Amenities

 If you’re looking for food or lodging around The Holistic Hub, options are mainly local cafes or nearby suburbs. Directly next to the venue is a small block of shops near Kepa/Remuera (including a petrol-station mini-mart) where you can grab a snack or drink. For a proper cafe, Sebastian’s Boutique Café (Orakei) is a highly rated spot a short walk from the Orakei train station – visitors praise its “home-made food & excellent coffee” . Another local favourite is Akarana Eatery (Orakei) for breakfast or brunch . If you need a full meal or drinks before/after the event, the Orakei RSA Club (178 Kepa Rd) has a bistro/bar open to the public (no membership needed for casual dining). Beyond Ōrākei, Mission Bay and St Heliers cafés and restaurants are just a 5–10 minute drive along Tamaki Drive – they offer seaside bistros and bars. There are very few hotels in Orakei itself, since it’s mostly residential. Visitors often stay in larger hotels in nearby suburbs (Ellerslie or Greenlane) or in central Auckland, then commute in. One local lodging choice is a B&B on Coates Ave (within 1 km) or self-contained apartments in Remuera. Heading north, the CBD hotels are about 10 km away (a ~15-minute drive). In practice, most people arriving for a Holistic Hub event will either drive or take public transit the same day – planned overnights are rare.

### What Makes This Venue Special

 The Holistic Hub stands out for combining historic architecture with a focus on wellbeing. It is one of the few purpose-built wellness studios in East Auckland, and its 1950s church bones give it character. The lofty ceiling and woodwork are unlike most modern studios, creating an uplifting sacred-space feel. Community members say the place has a warm “vibe” – it was an actual church and still feels like a sanctuary. The venue’s re-use of sacred space echoes the holistic philosophy (mind-body-spirit), adding charm and meaning to events. Another special aspect is a strong sense of community. Locals and visitors alike love its inclusive, non-judgmental atmosphere. The Holistic Hub often hosts women-only gatherings, couple’s retreats or cultural rituals, reflecting Āo Māori concepts of wellness (for example, Māori facilitators speak about \*mauri\* or life force in breathwork ceremonies). This cultural richness, along with the venue’s welcoming ethos, makes attendees feel connected. It has quietly become a cultural hub for the Eastern suburbs’ health-and-wellness crowd – a place where creative meditation, sound healing and artistic expression flourish. Historically, the building itself marks a milestone: it’s a surviving mid-century church that’s been adapted rather than demolished. In 2019 it was on the market, and now its resurrection as The Holistic Hub is one of Ōrākei’s “new chapter” stories (joining other community uses in the area) . In short, visitors and instructors alike praise The Holistic Hub for its quiet, transformative energy and distinctive setting. Many say it’s a hidden gem – a place to relax and renew that feels more soulful than a typical community hall, thanks to its high-ceiling sanctum and community-focus.

### Visitor Tips and Information

 \*\*Accessibility:\*\* As an older church building, wheelchair access may be limited (there may be a small step at the entrance). If mobility access is essential, check in advance. (For reference, the nearby Council-run Ōrākei Community Centre is explicitly wheelchair accessible .) \*\*Bring:\*\* For floor-based events bring a yoga mat or meditation cushion, a bottle of water and a light sweater (the hall can feel cool). Comfortable, loose clothing is ideal. Many events require bare feet or socks on the floor, so plan shoes that are easy to remove. You might also want a small blanket for lying-down sessions. Because there’s no cloakroom, only bring what fits with you to your seat. \*\*Food & Drink:\*\* On-site food/drink is not provided. Eat lightly before arriving (avoid heavy or garlic-heavy meals, especially for breathwork). It’s fine to bring a small bottle of water or herbal tea in a closed mug. Do not bring alcohol or recreational substances. \*\*Timing:\*\* Arrive 10–15 minutes early to find parking and settle in. Check-in usually starts about 15 minutes before event time. Latecomers may not be admitted once a session has begun. Events start on time (arriving later can disrupt the group). Plan extra travel time during Auckland morning/afternoon peak traffic on Tamaki Drive and Kepa Road. \*\*Conduct:\*\* The atmosphere is respectful and serene. Silence or switch off mobile phones once inside. Photography and recording are generally not allowed unless the presenter explicitly permits it. Dress modestly (no need for formal wear – think casual yoga attire) and speak quietly. If you have any health conditions (especially for breathwork), inform the instructor beforehand. \*\*Age & Companions:\*\* Most programs are adult-focused (many say no children or R16+). Double-check age limits when booking; often these are mindfulness or spirituality classes. Do not bring pets or young kids. If attending alone, you’ll find a friendly community where most people come for self-care, so it’s a welcoming environment for first-timers. \*\*Connectivity:\*\* There is no guaranteed free Wi-Fi. If you need internet access, arrange ahead (e.g. via phone hotspot). Phone signal is generally OK (full bars on most carriers), but try to unplug indoors anyway. \*\*COVID Etiquette:\*\* If there are special requirements (e.g. vaccine pass or mask orders), event hosts will notify attendees. Otherwise, usual health checks apply: feel free to wear a mask if desired. By following these tips – arrive early, dress for comfort, park carefully and book in advance – you’ll help ensure a smooth experience. The Hub’s charm lies in its peaceful, communal vibe, so relaxing and being present will let you fully enjoy this special Wellington-like sanctuary in Auckland’s east.

#### What is The Holistic Hub’s venue capacity?

The Holistic Hub’s halls total about 545 m² (church + hall) . In practice it accommodates roughly 100–150 people depending on event setup. The main hall can handle around 80–100 guests comfortably (chairs or mats), with more if space allows. It’s best for medium-size gatherings rather than very large crowds.

#### How do I buy tickets for an event at The Holistic Hub?

Tickets are typically sold online by the event organisers (e.g. via Eventfinda or Humanitix). There is no on-site box office. To book, find the event listing on a ticket site or the organiser’s website and purchase there. It’s recommended to buy early for popular workshops. Check your confirmation email on arrival.

#### Does The Holistic Hub have wheelchair access?

The venue is in a 1950s church building, which may have steps at the entrance. It’s not explicitly advertised as wheelchair-accessible. The nearby Council-owned Orakei Community Centre (next door) is fully wheelchair-friendly . If you need disabled access, it's best to contact the event organiser ahead of time for assistance or alternative entry arrangements.

#### Where should I park when attending The Holistic Hub?

There is a small free car park at the front of 152 Kepa Road (space for ~15 cars) . If it’s full, additional parking is behind the building by the tennis courts (Kupe Reserve) . Street parking on Kepa Road is limited and mostly metered, so aim to arrive early. Rideshare drop-offs are convenient on Kepa Road right outside the venue.

#### Which public transport serves the area?

Bus routes #76 and #781 (and the #783 loop) stop at Kepa Road / Orakei Shops (right by the petrol station) . From the stop it’s a short walk south on Kepa Road to the venue. The Orakei train station on Remuera Road (western side) is about 500 m away; it’s on the Britomart–Manukau line. Taxis/Ubers can also drop you at the door on Kepa Road.

#### Are seats reserved or first-come at events?

Seating is first-come, general admission. There are no assigned seats. Organisers usually arrange mats or chairs, and you pick your spot on arrival. To get a prime position (front/center), plan to arrive early. Everyone has the same standing or sitting area; “front” is simply where the facilitator is.

#### Are children or teenagers allowed in events?

Most events at The Holistic Hub are designed for adults. Some workshops explicitly restrict minors (often R16 or older) . If an event allows youth, it will note age limits on the ticket page. By default, plan for an adult audience unless a class is advertised as family-friendly.

#### Does the venue have restrooms and a snack bar?

Yes, there are restrooms: the hall section has two toilets and a sink, and the old church part has another two bathroom stalls . However, there is no snack bar or café inside. You can bring bottled water, but full meals aren’t served on site. Nearby shops and cafes (see Nearby Amenities) cover food/drink.

#### What should I bring to an event at The Holistic Hub?

Bring what you need for comfort: a yoga or meditation mat/pillow, a water bottle, and a light layer of clothing. Comfortable clothes for movement and warm socks are ideal. You might also bring your event ticket (printed or on phone) and a form of ID if required. Since there’s no coat check, carry only essentials on your person or take them into the hall with you.

#### Are photography, video, or cell phones allowed during sessions?

Usually no. Since most events are meditative or personal-growth oriented, recording is discouraged to maintain a respectful atmosphere. Anyone using a phone will generally be asked to put it away or switch to silent mode. If photography is needed (for example, a promotional shoot), the organiser should inform guests in advance. Otherwise, plan to enjoy the session without distractions.

#### Is Wi-Fi available at the venue?

The Holistic Hub does not publicise a guest Wi-Fi network. Mobile phone signal is generally fine inside, but do not rely on on-site Wi-Fi for event materials. If you need internet access, it’s best to use your phone’s data or arrange it before you arrive.

#### Are there any nearby hotels if I’m visiting for a workshop?

Orākei is mostly residential with no major hotels directly in town. Visitors usually stay in larger suburbs nearby. The closest options include a local B&B on Coates Avenue (about 1 km away) and chain hotels in Ellerslie/Greenlane (a short drive or train ride). Many out-of-towners simply stay in central Auckland and travel in for events.

#### What is the history of The Holistic Hub building?

The Holistic Hub is housed in the former St James’s Anglican Church, built in 1957 . For decades it served as a parish church. About 2019 the church and its adjacent hall (total ~545.5 m² ) were sold. The building has since been repurposed into a wellness/events centre, preserving its mid-century architecture while giving it new life as a community hub for health and healing.

#### Will a McDonald’s drive-through be built on this site?

According to Auckland Council records, there is (as of late 2024) a resource consent application for a McDonald’s drive-through at 152 Kepa Road . It’s not clear how that will affect The Holistic Hub’s future. For now, the wellness centre remains open, but it’s advisable to check the latest news or any notices from the venue for updates on redevelopment plans.

#### Where exactly is The Holistic Hub’s location?

It’s located at 152 Kepa Road, Ōrākei, Auckland 1071 . This is just off the corner of Kepa and Remuera Roads (near Orakei Community Centre and Mission Bay). If using GPS or maps, enter “152 Kepa Road, Auckland” – it will point you to the old church building complex.

#### Is The Holistic Hub owned by Auckland Council?

No. The Holistic Hub is a privately-run venue. It is not part of the council’s community venue network. (For example, the neighbouring Ōrākei Community Centre is operated by Auckland Council , but the Holistic Hub is independent.) All bookings and events are managed by private organisers.
