Hi! I’m Tayma - a multicultural being residing in Montclair, NJ with my two daughters, rescue dog, and husband. I delight in the search for balance, joy, and ways to be of service for others. I’m an eternal student and love to learn. Movement and yoga is my calling especially when used to help others feel safe, seen, and strong.
I have a background in mental health counseling which helps inform my yoga practice and nutrition coaching. From having a difficult postpartum experience (which too many people do), I decided to specialize in maternal care and support new and expecting mothers through pre/postnatal yoga, meditation, support circles, and nutrition coaching. I believe that my role as a teacher is to offer others a safe space where they feel open to heal, free to move in a way that serves them, and build strength and endurance that translates off the mat. I also love to curate playlists and use the power of music and movement together to create flow in the body and mind. I’m a voracious reader of novels and will always appreciate any fiction recommendations (my nose will 95% of the time be in a book).
