WHAT WE DO
Vedic Meditation and Yoga
At Kāru we teach practices that support the body and mind, backed by science & steeped in tradition.
We honour the depth and lineage of the teachings, while keeping it relevant to modern life. You’ll take home tools that are easily integrated into a busy schedule.
No prior experience or lifestyle change required, we offer simple yet profound practices to support your nervous system.
Run by husband and wife duo Elliot Smith and Ella McNeill, Kāru is personal by nature. We stay hands-on, treat our students like family, and create a steady, welcoming space to learn, practise, and feel supported.
Simple and natural, easy and effortless.
Practices that will be with you for life.

Elliot is a beautiful combination of calm, wise and down to earth. He had a deeply considered response to every question that came up and I felt in very safe hands. I would recommend the course to anyone.

Elliot's character is a testament to the power of meditation, calm and collected. All I can say is meditation is vastly misunderstood. My entire world has expanded from this simple, powerful practice. I never thought my brain would allow me to properly meditate (I'd tried for 20 years}; turns out Vedic meditation was the way.

Ella’s yoga class is the highlight of my week! It’s perfect blend of flexibility and strength- she keeps classes fresh and it attuned to the needs of her students, I always leave feeling relaxed and grateful.

I recently completed the Vedic meditation course, and I cannot express enough how much I enjoyed every aspect of it. Elliot was truly exceptional. Right from the beginning, I started to feel the benefits of the practice. I am thrilled to have integrated Vedic meditation into my daily routine, and I owe this transformation to Elliot's expert guidance. I can't thank him enough.

Get to know us
Kāru is run by us, husband and wife duo, Elliot Smith and Ella McNeill. We’re passionate about helping people feel more calm, creative, and connected — to themselves, to others, and to everyday life.
We’re hands-on, present, and deeply involved in every part of what we offer. We teach because we care, and because we’ve seen the difference these practices can make to the lives of people in our community.
“Keeping it real” is more than a catch phrase to us, it’s the only way we know how. We keep our teachings relevant and easy to follow, while being ready to dig into the challenges of life with you, any time.
