Taku Muzonzini

Taku Muzonzini Taku Muzonzini is a former OFM Franciscan (Catholic brother/monk), a certified Personal Trainer, and a Holistic Health and Wellness Coach. He holds Honors in Philosophy from Antonianum Pontificate University in Rome and Honors in Theology from the Catholic University of Zimbabwe, where he researched Embodied Spirituality—exploring the connection between health, wellness, and Christian spirituality as a path to personal fulfillment and divine encounter. An expert in high-performance living, Taku specializes in helping top executives and professionals achieve holistic well-being, longevity, and optimal performance. He has designed and facilitated corporate wellness programs for organizations such as the United Nations (UNFPA), Zimworx with Arthur Marara, the Securities and Exchange Commission of Zimbabwe (including their wellness policy), Zimbabwe Media Monitors, Style Cabin, the Catholic University of Zimbabwe, The United Methodist Church in Zimbabwe, the Carmelites in Zimbabwe, and various institutions in Namibia and South Africa. In 2023, Taku was a hosted delegate from Zimbabwe in India, sponsored by the Indian Ministry of Health and Family Welfare in conjunction with the WHO Traditional Medicine Summit. His academic credentials include a 3-year Graduate Diploma in Religious Studies and a 3-year Graduate Program in Psycho-Spirituality from St. Bonaventure University in Lusaka. He also holds an MBA in Corporate Wellness from the University of Milan, a Diploma in Nutrition, a Diploma in Fitness, and a Certificate in Menopause and Women’s Wellness. During his priesthood training, Taku gained hands-on hospital experience at St. Theresa Hama Chirumhanzi Hospital and Gandichibvuva Mission Hospital, where he provided care to the sick, witnessing the realities of illness and death firsthand. These experiences, along with his own health struggles in 2014—some of which led to surgery—ignited his passion for wellness, preventive healthcare, and a healthy lifestyle. Taku is also an expert in facilitating spiritual wellness exercises for both corporate organizations and churches, integrating holistic health with faith-based principles. His mission is simple yet profound: “If even one person improves their health, thrives without pain or disease, performs optimally, and lives longer in a world plagued by chronic illnesses and premature deaths—achieving this through positive lifestyle changes—then I have fulfilled my purpose.”
