CURRICULUM

What do we offer?

We offer a nervous-system informed, eco-feminist curriculum which explores embodiment at the self, relational and community levels. Our programs:

• work to expand what body image means, reflecting on oppression and privilege

• utilize somatics, expressive arts and mindfulness as tools to explore rich topics and experiences
