SAUNA & SWIM MERMASCS
What To Expect
With the seasons changing, we thought it’d be the perfect time to bring our Mermascs swims into the sauna for this special pilot event! We’ve booked out the sauna for 45 minutes exclusively for our communities to relax and connect. We’ll also still be doing our usual Mermascs beach swim afterwards at 11:15AM, meeting at the Sauna Collective. If you’d prefer to just join for the swim (and drink some Supreme Coffee with us), you’re absolutely welcome to come along for that too! Sauna time: 10:30AM-11:15AM Sunday 21 June (meet at 10:15AM). Where: Meet at Takapuna Beach Holiday Park, you will see a wooden mobile sauna. Cost: $15 for 45 mins (40% off using our unique discount code) Beach Swim: 11:15AM Sunday 21 June (meet at The Sauna Collective). Staff: Facilitated by our wonderful Mermascs Volunteer Leads, Michelle & Alanna. Follow and complete the booking form via Radiqal Movement - we will direct you to the Sauna Collective Takapuna Website to secure your spot and pay directly to them. Please note, their booking system only allows up to 13 spots and it's first come first serve! Once it’s full, there would be additional space for 3 more people who can pay on arrival, as the sauna can hold up to 16 people (but this is not guaranteed!). This event is open to all people, with a focus on queer and gender diverse folk, and communities typically excluded from mainstream fitness spaces. Join our Instagram channels for more information/timely updates. Disclaimer – although overseen by Radiqal Movement, MERMASCS is not an instructor-led activity. If you are new to exercise, have any medical conditions or injuries, please ensure you have gained your healthcare provider’s clearance before attending. Although all due care is taken, you are participating at your own risk and must listen to your body at all times. Engage to how you are feeling on the day and to where you’re at within your own current level of fitness and confidence. We encourage you to have something to drink and/or eat prior to and after the meet-up. If you feel unwell or experience any unusual pain or discomfort, please seek assistance ASAP.
Booking terms & conditions
Radiqal Movement’s free community activities (such as Mermascs, Dykes n Hikes, and other events) are designed to support connection, joy, and collective wellbeing. We want to make sure everyone has the chance to take part and that our volunteer facilitators and organisers feel respected and supported. If you register for a community activity and can no longer attend, please cancel your spot as soon as possible via your 'My Booking Page' or by emailing rm@radiqalmovement.com. This helps us manage group size, keep waitlists moving, and plan safely for all participants. If you’re running late, we totally understand - please do your best to let us know. For events with start times (like hikes or swims), we may begin without late arrivals to ensure the group’s safety and flow. Repeated no-shows or late cancellations may affect your ability to register for future activities. Although overseen by Radiqal Movement, community activities are not instructor-led, but rather guided by our Volunteers. If you are new to exercise, have any medical conditions or injuries, please ensure you have gained your healthcare provider’s clearance before attending. Although all due care is taken, you are participating at your own risk and must listen to your body at all times. Exercise to how you are feeling on the day and to where you’re at within your own current level of fitness. We encourage you to have something to drink and/or eat prior to and after the session. If you feel unwell or experience any unusual pain or discomfort, please stop immediately and seek assistance. There may be photos taken during the activity - if you’d prefer not to be photographed or posted, just let us know on the day. These activities are free, but they rely on the energy of our community and volunteers - so thank you for showing up with care! We reserve the right to update this policy as needed. If changes are made, we’ll notify you here. Updated 04/09/2025
