Practicing flexibility of the mind, body and spirit...

Hello, I’m Dominique.
I began my journey as a yoga teacher in 2019, but it wasn’t until I became a mother that I truly confronted my own unresolved trauma. Through talk therapy, yoga, and spirituality, I found my way to a more sustainable emotional space. In 2023, I deepened my practice by earning my second 200-hour yoga certification from Sandy Raper Yoga.
Along the way, I became painfully aware of the lack of mental health support for women of color. While disheartening, this realization also ignited a sense of purpose within me—to bring accessible wellness tools to my community. In response, I launched my YouTube channel, Brown and Bendy, which has since grown into a thriving community of over 100,000 subscribers dedicated to healing and self-care.
Today, I continue this work as the producer of More Peace (Please!), a podcast exploring the concept of peace through conversations with people from diverse backgrounds. I remain committed to teaching yoga, creating content, and expanding my knowledge.
In early 2025, I earned my Trauma-Informed Yoga certification from Yoga Medicine. To further support my community, I am currently pursuing a Master’s in Social Work at the University of North Carolina Charlotte, with the goal of becoming a licensed therapist. While I currently offer wellness coaching, my long-term mission is to provide trauma-informed clinical support for those who need it most.

Wishing you growth, confidence, and peace on your journey.
