In Swahili “tano akili” means “five senses,” which is exactly what I want my untraditional art and wellness studio to engage the moment you step through its colorful doorway. Here I have created a space where guests can find mind-body harmony in whatever way works best for you. Whether you’re looking for a relaxing massage, energizing yoga class, health and nutrition workshop, or a place to express yourselves creatively. I am passionate about healing, educating and given back.
