Warrior Healer builder
The heart & soul of AYA Educational Institute
Warrior-Healer-Builder (WHB) workshops, seminars, and toolsets are explored in a racially and culturally “safe place.” For more than 23 years, WHB has served the African and African-Diasporan communities. Many of us live and work in “contested” spaces, so we need safe spaces where exploring, discovering, and healing our wounds, born of oppression, can be supported.
What does WHB stand for?
Warrior Healer Builder
Warriors
We must become better warriors challenging the
People
Policies
Practices
that aggress upon our families, our people and our community. Find them and challenge them. Choose your area. Unfortunately, we continue to be preyed upon in every conceivable area of life.
Healers
African people worldwide have been and continue to be wounded by white domination and other forms of oppression and injected oppression. Unfortunately, neither educational attainment, physical prowess, or political position is sufficient. We need a safe place to discover and heal from the brutal trauma that reverberates down the generational lines from our ancestors to us. No one can do this work for us.
Builders
While we fight and heal, we are also obligated to build. We must build:
Families
Organizations
Businesses
Institutions.
I know it's a tall order. I know it's not fair. Oppression is not fair. We often times think we can't do it. Here's the good news. We have in the past, and we can do it now. These workshops are designed to help us do just that - in small steps, in sure steps weaving trust out of conflict, confidence out of fear, Success out of the ashes.

Answer Of Some Yoga Questions
How do you start yoga practice?
Begin with simple poses and gradually increase intensity as your body adjusts. It’s important to listen to your body and progress at your own pace.
What equipment do I need for yoga?
A yoga mat is essential, and props like blocks and straps can help enhance your practice. Comfortable clothing is also important to allow for full movement.
When can I practice yoga after eating?
It's best to wait at least 1-2 hours after eating before practicing yoga. This helps prevent discomfort during your poses.

Feeling stuck is natural. Consider exploring different types of classes, consulting with a yoga instructor, or incorporating mindfulness practices to deepen your experience.

Yoga focuses on physical postures and breath control to enhance overall well-being, while meditation is primarily a mental practice that fosters mindfulness, relaxation, and clarity.
