What I do
I help moms and empty-nesters like you get back their bodies, restore mental focus and cultivate peace of mind through my Holistic Wellness programs that combine yoga, mindfulness and Ayurveda practices with the best of modern science.
Do you feel like going to the gym or committing to a whole new diet and exercise regime feels overwhelming, intimidating or even off-putting, and you never seem to make the time to go or even get started?
You want to look and feel good again, and even though you don’t know where to start, you know in your heart that you can do it.
You know deep down that if you had a wellness coach who could help you get moving in the right way - without risking injury -and establish a balanced, healthy diet, you’d be able to do more of the activities you love to do (pain free) with the people you love.
I love to make yoga, meditation, breathing and Ayurvedic diet and lifestyle accessible to you so you can easily fit them into your life and achieve the holistic health you know deep down that you deserve and can experience.
True health comes from knowing your self, and nurturing your body, mind and spirit. You want to feel energized, reduce or eliminate aches and pains, and move freely in your body. You want to have a calm and clear mind and enjoy your life more. I will help you get there with consistent yoga, mindfulness and Ayurveda practices that you can easily fit into your life.
Schedule a no-obligation 30 minute call with me to find out how I can help you achieve your wellness goals.
With over 16 years of teaching experience, I bring my warm personality and advanced knowledge of yoga, Ayurveda, meditation, pranayama and body mechanics to create engaging classes, courses and training programs. I have tailored yoga practices to suit hundreds of past clients just like you.
Let’s talk about your health & wellness goals!
Meet Maya
Maya Siklai is E-RYT 500 Yoga Alliance certified yoga teacher, a mother, and a lifetime student of yoga, Ayurveda, dance, music and art. Maya took her first yoga class as a teenager, and has now been teaching yoga for over 16 years. Her intention has always been to empower people to learn safe and effective yoga practices and integrate them into their lives so that eventually they don’t need a teacher, other than themselves. “When I teach yoga, I seek to both honor the roots of yoga by integrating philosophy and spirituality, and to teach the practical physical, mental and emotional techniques that yield immediate results.”
Maya finds it most fulfilling to work one-on-one with private clients and to lead Yoga Teacher Training programs which she has done annually for the past 12 years. Both allow her to work closely with the same people over time to develop a deeper understanding of yoga beyond the physical poses. Maya also loves to teach her private clients, host monthly New Moon Reset classes, workshops, group courses, as well as lead teach the annual People’s Yoga 200-hr Yoga Teacher Training each Fall.
Aside from enjoying time with her beautiful family, Maya loves to read books, study yoga & Ayurveda, travel, swim in the ocean, cook, sing, dance, garden and create!

“Maya, your classes are wonderful, I feel really well taken care of. Thank you for giving us individualized attention and offering adjustments to fit everyone’s specific situation. You bring a lovely spiritual side to your practice, and at the same time you explain the anatomy behind certain movements and how they can help us in our daily life. I love that combination!”

[These lessons have] helped my sore knees and joints. Now I can bend my right knee deeply where I couldn’t before. I always feel better both physically and mentally after Maya’s classes. This is a perfect intro to yoga.”

I just wanted to thank you again for allowing me to feel my emotions as they surfaced during class on Saturday. It was completely unexpected and it was hard to pin point exactly what had caused it. I realize now that it was a myriad of things, some of which I didn't realize I was still holding on to…I felt seen and supported and it was what I needed at that moment. I appreciate you checking in with me at the end of class. I knew this class would have its challenges and that I would grow into a better me, but I had no idea to what depth. Yoga is DEEP! I have chosen this journey and I am grateful you are there with me.
