Our Story
Marjorie Grace Meredith, has lived in Samoa for 30 years, while working full time in the family business and establishing new business's with her husband Richard, Marjorie also engaged in community sports,coached and played hockey in 1991,played tennis,and engaged in her personal fitness and well being. Marjorie produced her own health and well being television program called Wealthy Health, she was not only the producer, she was also the anchor person for the television program which was aired on Television Graceland which was established by Marjorie and her husband was the only other television station besides the Governments at that time,they also have a radio station.These two entities Marjorie took advantage of being the owner and promoted Health and Well being,with a strong thrust towards prevention rather than cure. Marjorie engaged Doctors, the Nutrition department at Motootua Hospital as her guest on her health programs,teamed up with the nutrition department with programs in the villages. Marjorie took aerobic programs in the churches, reaching out to the community promoting Health and Well being to the Samoan Community. She was officially commended by the Deputy Prime Minister Misa T Retslaff for her work in the community and through the media.Marjorie did her community work for no capital gain.Marjorie designed and tutored health course's for Maori and Pacific Island students in Auckland New Zealand,one of her courses that became very popular at Auckland Polytechnic, which is now Auckland university of Technology, was Te Rapu Ora meaning a search for health, which focused on total well being,the holistic approach.Marjorie has never diverted from her passion of educating people towards a better life by taking care of your health.Marjorie is now promoting and teaching yoga,she has been practicing the art of yoga for approximately 10 years,she has looked at yoga from a broad perspective with the question how can I break down the barriers that yoga poses to a Christian Nation as Samoa, as she has observed yoga class's in Samoa are mostly supported by expats not the local community. There are several factors a major one is lack of knowledge of yoga as a pathway to Health and Well being, another is the ability to teach the art of yoga to fit the culture not the other way around,teaching Yoga at grass roots is the key to the growth and practice of yoga in which Marjorie has been approached to start teaching in this area. She has her Yoga Studio at her home at Levili village Apia Samoa.
