Race Equity Facilitation

Examples of workshops that I offer include:

  • Embodied Anti-Racism: Integrating Mind and Body in Racial Justice Work
    — Invitation to explore how racism affects not just our thoughts but also our bodies, emotions and sensations, and how we can befriend somatic practices to support and deepen our anti-racism efforts.

  • Understanding Whiteness: A Somatic Approach to Anti-Oppression
    — A workshop focused on supporting white participants in noticing, understanding and addressing the impact of whiteness and structural advantage on our thoughts, emotions, and bodies.

  • Mindful Conversations on Race: Nurturing Compassion Through Grounding and Self-Regulation

    — Invitation to engage in conversations about race and racism with mindfulness and compassion, using body awareness and breath to stay grounded.

  • Re-imagining Leadership: Leading with Integrity, Awareness and Compassion
    — A workshop particularly helpful for leaders, managers and anyone who leads or supports others. It offers a space to explore, with hearts, minds and bodies, the effects of oppression and trauma in the workplace, encouraging somatic awareness to foster and nurture workplaces where people feel they belong.

  • Embodied Narratives: A Somatic Approach to Unpacking Privilege and Oppression
    —     This space integrates conversation with movement practices to help participants notice, explore and unpack their positionality in terms of privilege and oppression in a supportive environment.

  • Bodies Telling Stories: A Workshop on Race and Embodiment
    —     An introspective and interactive workshop where participants are invited to tune into their movement and sensations in the body to explore their own identities, particularly in the context of race, ethnicity, cultural heritage and religion.

  • The Power of Spaces In-Between: Body-based Approach to Mindful Choices
    —     A workshop inviting participants to notice and nurture small pauses in how we move, breathe, talk and respond to external situations, building internal space for intentional and courageous choices in charged contexts.

    Is there any other topic or issue that you’re interested in? I would love to discuss that! Please get in touch and schedule a 30min free exploratory conversation.

Let’s work together

Those who worked with me describe my approach as reflective, interactive, welcoming and non-judgmental, providing connecting and honest spaces to discuss complex issues with compassion, empathy and sensitivity.

My workshops and 1-1 sessions can be tailored to different audiences, including community groups, schools, universities and industry, and can vary in length from a 90min to multi-day intensives. They blend intellectual exploration and embodied, practical learning.

I specialise in bespoke race equity and anti-racism workshops and 1-1 sessions that suit different needs and budgets. Work with me so that I can support you and your organisation with empathy and compassion to truly move forward, grounded and purposeful, towards equity, belonging and connection. My approach combines sociology, race equity psychology and somatics-informed movement, deeply embedded in trauma-informed care.

My sessions invite a re-connection with felt sensations in the body, as a beautiful grounding and orienting tool to make space for mindful reflection and actions that can change culture. These practices encourage befriending our nervous systems to notice when, where, and how we might be thinking and acting out of deeply ingrained fight, flight and freeze responses, or responses coming from an unsettled, jumpy nervous system.
