"The work that I do ultimately empowers women to take a personal approach to living,” says, Takeyah Young, Founder of Core Connection Lifestyle and author of 26 Tips for a Balanced Life: An A-to-Z Guide of Simple Ways to Live a Healthy Life. “I have attended retreats with Maya in the past and they have transformed me, so it only made sense to collaborate with her to bring the retreat Yoga Retreat for Women of Color™ to the DC area.”

Maya Breuer, a certified Kripalu yoga teacher and educator, created the Yoga Retreat for Women of Color™ in 1999 as an instrument to bring the practice of yoga and its benefits for health, healing, and rejuvenation to women of color. After many years of personal practice and living her yoga, she deftly weaves yoga and spirit together for Body and Soul.

“One of the great benefits of the retreat is that women of varying backgrounds and experiences can come together to focus on themselves, share with one another and leave with strategies and inspiration for nurturing body and soul,” says Young.
