Posted @withrepost • @thirdrootnyc Is my #homepractice #place Healing Scholarship for Trans Women and Trans Feminine People - sketch by @samolewicz - RIP 🖤 Em Third Root Community Health Center is currently providing FREE yoga classes, acupuncture and massage services, as well as future yoga teacher training and mentoring through the Em Healing Scholarship (please click our bio link) We welcome trans women and trans feminine people to mention to the Em Healing Scholarship when making an appointment, or at the time of the appointment, in order to receive services free of charge. Those interested in free yoga teacher training should send an inquiry to geleni@thirdroot.org in order to receive a short application. Opportunities to teach and be mentored at Third Root will be included in this scholarship. Em Samolewicz was an artist, beloved friend, and community member. She was a trans woman who worked as an administrator at Third Root and Jaya Yoga Center. She died suddenly this July just before beginning a yoga teacher training course, after a prolonged time unable to afford the cost of one. We recognize that trans women and trans feminine people often experience barriers to health care and healing services, are severely underrepresented in the yoga teaching community, and furthermore experience discrimination and #transmisogyny in most fields of employment. This scholarship is part of our mission to build access to healing empowerment for those of us most marginalized. We endeavor to honor Em by doing our small part to tear down the barriers she faced in her lifetime, and we welcome trans women and #transfeminine folks to heal with us and celebrate their life and strength.
