A yoga mat or other non-slip towel is recommended, as well as the use of the back of a sturdy chair, couch, wall, or portable barre. Shoes are not required, but some may find wearing ballet slippers or socks to be helpful with pointing and brushing motions. If you have a hardwood or tile floor, bare feet or other shoes with a non-slip sole, such as tennis shoes, may work best. No previous dance experience required!

Discussion-based Classes
Online Body Image 101
Prerequisite: None
This is a discussion-based class where we'll have equal time to discuss, process, and sit with how we feel about our bodies in this unique and challenging moment. We will also spend some time cultivating tools to combat negative self-talk and help cultivate a sense of self from a place of body neutrality.
We will discuss topics such as dealing with diet talk, forced hiatus from pleasurable movement, and the potential feelings of loss that have come with it. This class will be a space to cultivate a community of people who can have supportive discussions as we process our feelings about our bodies. Liana will utilize her experience facilitating critical discussion and draw on her lived experience as a fat person with an eating disorder to assist in facilitation. This group is a place to co-create and co-support, but is not licensed group therapy. People of all sizes and gender identities are welcome - if you have a body and want to talk about it, we're here for you!
The Self Care Prescription (series offering, separate pass required)
Prerequisite: None
Have you been wondering what all the buzz around self-care is about? Join Robyn, author of The Self-Care Prescription, as she leads you on a 6-week journey of quieting the outside noise, making space for rest, connecting with your intuition, and unapologetically tending to your own needs. The Self-Care Prescription: A 6-Week Series is a 6-part live workshop for folx who are overwhelmed, burnt-out, and ready to give themselves the care they so freely give others. This series is about more than bubble baths and pedicures. Together, we will explore REAL self-care—the kind that nurtures the mind, body, and soul. We will investigate six domains of self-care: emotional, physical, social, mental, spiritual, and vocational.
During this guided 6-week journey, participants will receive tools for reconnecting with themselves, identifying their needs, and practicing self-care in sustainable ways. This live online course will feature weekly mindfulness, poetry, gentle movement, and self-reflection, with special emphasis on listening to your inner wisdom. In addition to live engagement with Robyn, you will have the opportunity to thrive in community with other like-minded folx who are committed to leveling up their self-care. Each participant will be mailed a self-care package curated specifically for this class, which will be used to support them on their journey to enhanced self-care.
All classes are live through Zoom. You may use your computer, tablet, or phone. Attending all six sessions live will help you get the most out of this series. In the unfortunate circumstance that you miss one of the live events, a recording will be emailed to you.
