Nan McKenzie

BPEd, Dip Couns, Dip Tch
Chair of Roopu Kaitiaki 

When Anna decided to establish the Cardiac Clinic back in 2010, Nan McKenzie was right there beside her. In those early days Nan was instrumental in setting up and managing the daily operations of the clinic and allowed it to develop to where we are today.

Nan's background is in PE and fitness but she has never been rounded by convention.

As a PE teacher, Nan didn't stop at running drills and coaching sports, she was more interested in promoting exercise as a way to improve confidence and coordination for all students.

Nan is driven by a desire to help people live healthier, happier lives, no matter what age.

"Now that I'm older", she says, she's inspired by ageing healthily and helping people keep moving. Nan can often be found riding her bike, exercising at the clinic, or, when her knee permits, jogging around Mauao.
