Kemetic Yoga
Dajia's journey with yoga began during a difficult time in her life in 2020. As she continued to practice, she not only became physically stronger and more flexible, but also gained a deeper sense of self-awareness.

While this practice is rooted in empowering people of color, it is open to anyone who wishes to practice.
