Guided by Oya Heart Warrior: A Catalyst for Healing
Oya Heart Warrior, driven by a deep commitment to dismantling systems of oppression, found solace in community counseling and embodied practices. Disillusioned by the shortcomings of the psychiatric system in its treatment of Black individuals, Oya, a devoted lover of dance and meditation, underwent training in somatic movement and yoga therapy. This journey led her to develop a unique practice dedicated to the somatic liberation of Black people of African descent.
Unapologetically Black Yoga and Black Ecstatic Dance Freedom
The retreat introduces Unapologetically Black Yoga and Black Ecstatic Dance Freedom—a compassionate haven for Black individuals, including mixed-race individuals, to collectively mobilize joy and metabolize pain, without apology. Together, we celebrate our humanity and reclaim our embodied freedom, one breath at a time.
Journey of Maat Nebu Amun: Healing Through Ancient Practices
This transformative journey, guided by Maat Nebu Amun, began after her beloved mother's energy left the realm of this dimension, which is now almost 5 years ago. It started with tribal fusion dance and Kundalini Yoga, followed by Smai-Tawi, also known as Kemetic Yoga, which has its origins in ancient Egypt.
She is certified in Smai-Tawi as well as in Afrikan Yoga since 2021. Smai-Tawi works with the combination of movement and breath, yet storytelling is a big part of it as well. Afrikan Yoga is a rhythmic practice based and works with the elements and the cosmic forces of nature.
On this journey, she will combine Smai-Tawi with elemental rhythmic movements of Hudu, breathwork, Hekaus (mantras), meditation, and dance to help the activation of your higher self and to share the soul healing and magic of these ancient practices.
