Mamasita Studios and Bikram Yoga Takoma Park, Silver Spring

Movement is medicine for Sunyatta Amen, proprietor and head instructor at MamaSita Movement & Wellness Studio. She expresses this philosophy through an eclectic menu of group classes such as Belly Dance Drills and Technique, West African Workout with live drummers, Brazilian Samba, and yoga. During classes, students gain confidence as they shimmy hips and undulate bellies through each 60- to 90-minute workout.
