Resilient Body
Recruit your body’s wisdom to help you show up better in the work towards diversity, equity & inclusion. Inequality & oppression are rooted in collective trauma. Trauma lives in our bodies as chronic states of fight, flight, & freeze. Through dance, movement, & somatic resourcing, discover how your body defends itself & expand your capacity to be in discomfort, a requirement for confronting oppressive structures within ourselves & healing towards more inclusion & belonging.
