Additional Classes

This is another class I created that focuses on self confidence, empowerment, and resilience. We live in a society that encourages taking up the least amount of space as possible, not only with our bodies but also with our thoughts and opinions. Teens and pre-teens, especially, are not often taught to take up space and use their words, but instead are encouraged to behave, follow the rules, be respectful, and stay quiet. This precedent causes them to either shrink back or act out. The course entitled Taking Up Space in a World that Tells Us to be Small teaches people to appreciate their bodies and minds for what they are, instead of molding and changing themselves to fit society’s preconceived norms. The goal of this socio-emotional (SEL) course is to provide a platform for people to gain strength and resilience and equip them with the tools to feel empowered, use their words, love themselves, take up space, and be unapologetically authentic. Note: This class is created for ages 12+ and these modules should be taught in order.
