Introducing Hakim Tafari

Put simply, Hakim is the real deal. Not only is he incredibly talented, but he also genuinely embodies the mission of YogaWorks. As a social activist dedicated to well-being, movement, and natural healing, Hakim lives and breathes mindfulness and social awareness.

With over 30 years of martial arts experience, Hakim is a Tai Chi and Qi Gong teacher, a graduate of UCLA’s Mindfulness Awareness Research Center, and a participant in the Spirit Rock Community Dharma Leaders program.

Drawing inspiration from both Eastern and African traditions, his work is infused with themes of interconnectedness—whether he's leading a class, spinning records as a DJ, or creating his powerful Ensō paintings.

We’re honored to have him on this journey with us!

Living Mindfully with Meditation

In this 10-part audio series, Hakim Tafari offers a down-to-earth approach to deepening your meditation practice and building lasting mindfulness habits.

You'll start with "the essentials"—three classes breaking down mindfulness vs. meditation and how to create a practice that fits your life. Then, move into "the fundamentals"—seven guided meditations focused on cultivating love, joy, and forgiveness.

Each lesson features original artwork by Hakim, blending his meditative practice with the art of Enso painting—a symbol of enlightenment, strength, inner peace, and the beauty of all things.
