Welcome

We welcome you with open arms …

We’re a global community focused on self-development. We believe the answers that work for you are the ones you discover for yourself.

Led by elder, professor, internationally published author, spiritual teacher and percussionist Oloye “Baba” Ifa Karade, The Ifa Institute will help you to reconnect with your authentic self and tell your story in your own voice and on your own terms. 

To support you in your journey, check out the following:

  • Research & Education: Our research, cross-disciplinary work and cross-cultural exchanges seek to reclaim and elevate the wisdom of our ancestors.

  • Literacy Building: We teach individuals from systematically marginalized communities about the literary and rhetorical devices that shape the narratives they study. 

  • Culture Making: We explore culture as a living phenomenon shaping our lives and our communities.

Follow us on Instagram and sign up for our newsletter to stay on top of all the new programs and events we will be offering!

See you on the path!
