ABOUT US

Who Are We?

We, Azia Henry & Alisha Edwards, are the Hood Healers of Philadelphia—a community-centered wellness initiative dedicated to promoting healing, growth, and connection in our neighborhoods. Rooted in the heart of Philadelphia, Hood Healers is a yoga-based organization with a vision to empower individuals and families through intentional movement, mindfulness, and meditation.

 

Our Mission

Our mission is to help our community heal from trauma by creating accessible and inclusive spaces where people can connect with their bodies and minds. We believe in the transformative power of yoga to restore balance, build resilience, and cultivate inner peace.

​

Why We Do It

Hood Healers was born from the belief that everyone deserves access to tools for healing and wellness, regardless of background or income level. We see yoga as a bridge between mind, body, and spirit—a way to release past traumas and step into a more joyful, empowered future.
