"Attending the Unearth + Bloom yoga session was such an eye opener. As a woman of color, there tends to be baggage that comes from pain that has not been healed or acknowledged. During the session, I not only learned yoga poses, I walked away from that session not afraid to be expressive. It was such a strong bonding moment as I was able to see people of all colors, sizes/shapes, and genders expressing themselves through movement, breathing, and words. I would definitely recommend them to anyone interested in unearthing the pain and blooming into their best selves."
“I attended Intuitive Wisdom, a phenomenal workshop which included mindfulness and movement through Yoga & a powerful talk-back circle where the focus was self-awareness through gratitude and growth mind set practices. This workshop was truly unlike any similar workshop because, well- Khadijah and Zakiyyah are unlike any other healers I know! From the trap music during Yoga to the laughs and tears in the talk-back circle, these two have an incredible ability to draw out everyone’s best self. I definitely left feeling lighter and more confident than when I came in!”
