BIPOC Light Dark Foundations Level 1

What you need to know:

This workshop is open exclusively to people who identify as Black, Indigenous, or a Person of Color (BIPOC). BIPOC is a term used to center and acknowledge the distinct experiences of people who have historically been and continue to be marginalized based on race.

Our intention in offering this as a BIPOC-only space is to create an environment of shared understanding, where participants can do deep inner work without the additional labor of navigating racial dynamics or feeling the need to explain their lived experience. Shadow work – the practice of turning toward the parts of ourselves we judge, hide, or have learned to suppress – can carry a particular weight for BIPOC individuals, shaped by generations of systemic messages about who we are and who we are allowed to be.

Have you ever felt like parts of you learned to disappear – maybe not all at once, but slowly, quietly, in response to a world that didn't always make room for your full self? Maybe it was something you stopped saying out loud. A way of moving through space that you adjusted. A piece of your history, your lineage, your wildness, your softness – tucked away somewhere safe, until safe became forgotten.

In this container, you are welcomed as your whole self. The Light Dark Foundations workshop guides you through teaching and embodied exercises designed to help you meet the parts of yourself you may have rejected, feared, or forgotten – not to fix them, but to allow them. To see them. To begin the practice of integration: the understanding that all of you belongs.

This space is built on the principles of allowing and acceptance, not judgment – of yourself, or anyone else in the room. We hope you’ll join us if you feel the call.
