Credentials

Bio

Hama started her yoga journey in 2006 with Bikram Yoga and is a certified 500-hour teacher. For Hama, teaching yoga is a way to share the joy and inner peace that arise from connecting breath, body, and mind through movement. With a warm and straightforward style, she helps students restore balance and nurture themselves and their self-expression. She especially enjoys working with beginner and Level 1 students in studio classes, private sessions, and community centers.
Hama has been an enthusiastic athlete throughout her life and is a dedicated Vipassana meditator, which has transformed her life and complements her yoga asana practice perfectly. Passionate about cooking, baking, and eating, she loves spending quality time with her cats and husband practicing the art of doing nothing and simply being.
