Juicing to Wellness with Yakira Daniels

Yakira Daniels leads Juicing to Wellness, a hands-on workshop at the Lotus Pond Center for Yoga and Health on Saturday, January 9, 2027. It's a 90-minute session that pairs fresh, pressed juicing with nutrition education, and it's organized by the center.

The morning is built around a few concrete things. There's a live cold-pressed juice demonstration, where you'll see the process from start to finish, followed by a guided tasting. From there, the session moves into interactive teaching on how to fit more whole foods into your daily life and the role nutrition plays in chronic disease prevention. Daniels frames the whole experience around four ideas: Grow, Nourish, Move and Thrive.

Daniels brings a specific set of backgrounds to the table. She's the founder of Wedelia Wellness and comes from a background in clinical research and healthcare. She's also a Certified Wellness & Life Coach, a Certified Yoga Instructor, and a Certified Agriculture Specialist, so the agriculture side explains why the juicing is a central part of the day rather than just a side note.

It runs from 10:30 AM to 12:00 PM at the Lotus Pond Center for Yoga and Health, 6201 Lynn Rd, Tampa, FL 33625-5618. Tickets are $45.
