Therapeutic Bodywork for Our Transgender Community

Although DEI training is at the core of this course, you will learn the best and most effective ways to treat our trans family members and support their gender-affirming journey in both emotional and physical terms. You will learn trauma-informed care in addition to specific bodywork techniques which are tailored to anyone going through any gender-affirming care or surgeries. 

When we fully accept one another on our own individual paths, without judgement or fear of a personal or physical “difference,” we build stronger communities, connected in equality and unconditional love.
