Ameena Ali, ND, PhD, GAL, CDI-B/P, VLM

​I am "Umme" to my daughters and "Eyaya" (or "Mother of my Mother" in Kiswahili) and "Nana" to my GrandBunnies (as I call them); this Universal permission, to teach by example, has led me to the fabulous mission to service Women in Waiting for many years now!

I come into this Art form with the hopes, desires and the fortitude to prevail in this purpose; to lead those I come in contact with the wisdom of my Ancestral Matriarchs and Earth-Mothers...combined!

I bring these programs to the Village and welcome you to love this passion as much as I do, leaving it enriched, prosperous and pregnant with bounty, enabling all Women to be empowered in their choices, options, roles rights and responsibilities for THEIR birth!
