About Me

Dwell with Maya

Inspired by nature and my travels, I’ve learned that feeling at home in yourself is a journey of its own. I created DWELL to honor that journey and the possibility of feeling at home in your body, wherever life takes you.

For more than a decade, my work as a model has taken me across cities and cultures. Those experiences opened my world and allowed me to recognize what I wanted to make room for: meaningful connection, time in nature, and the freedom to be present in my own life.

Yoga became a practice I could return to wherever life took me. As a certified 200-hour yoga instructor and sound bath practitioner, I’ve deepened my understanding through study with teachers from around the world. I carry their lessons into my own teaching, while remaining a student myself. That spirit of learning and care is at the heart of DWELL.

Through DWELL, I’m bringing that spirit into shared experiences of movement, sound, and travel. Space to linger in a moment that feels good, connect with others, and welcome something unfamiliar.

My hope is that you leave with something that stays, a practice you return to, a connection you keep, or the courage to make room for the life you want.

You deserve to feel at home in the life you’re creating.
