Ona Hawk is a certified yoga instructor, vegan live food chef and holistic health educator in Atlanta. She is founder of Firehawk Yoga and specializes in teaching realistic and accessible practices for achieving self-healing. Her distinctive approach to practice and teaching has evolved from her training in Capoeira Angola and various systems of yoga, which together enhanced her ability in applying the breath and methods of movement for sustainable wellness along her own healing journey. She enjoys guiding others to help them find their unique paths, purpose and confidence through integrating breath, meditation and movement for vitality and longevity. With respect to ancient science, history, nature and the individual, Ona helps to bring a person back to their own power. Inspired by her studies and practice of indigenous holistic healing, in 2013 Ona found her way to Kemetic Yoga, a system based on ancient African healing sciences for balancing energy. She opened the doors to a studio dedicated to upholding the tradition and authenticity of this yoga along with food education for transitioning to a healthy vegan lifestyle. In 2017 she continued her learning, traveling to Mysore, India to study Hatha Yoga and Ayurveda. Over the years her passion for teaching has grown through assisting in several YTT programs hosted at her studio, in Jamaica and at Sacred Chill while opportunities to lead workshops and teach at retreats for people of color in Belize, Costa Rica, at Kripalu and around Georgia have enriched her personally and her community. Ona finds the most joy in providing a welcoming, comfortable and fun space for cultivating higher consciousness, freedom and reconnection with one’s spirit and ancient roots through the breath to reduce stress, negativity and physical and emotional pain. She is a storyteller, always linking her experience to the content she teaches as her way of sharing her truth so that others may dare to find their voice, listen to their inner wisdom, and know that their stories are worthy of and waiting to be heard. Ona offers online yoga classes, training and mentoring at www.onahawk.com
