Move Your Bits

Welcome to Sappho's Friends new addition:

**MOVE YOUR BITS**

We have seen an increased amount of queer people having trouble finding the right space to do different physical activities such as yoga, dancing, and many other body-related activities. The usual spaces that offer these activities can be very challenging for many in the queer community, especially for trans people. Many of these places do not know how vulnerable these activities can be for queer people. After many talks with members of our community and other organisations, Sappho's Friends would like to offer the opportunity to train different disciplines led by different people in a protected and inclusive space.

**About the March session**

This session of _Move Your Bits_ will be on March 13th from 18:00 - 20:00 at Gymsalen, Sentralen. It will be hosted by Barbora (she/they) @barb.the.builder_, who's educated as a personal trainer and nutrition coach, and a total nerd when it comes to movement and psychology. She uses training as a tool to build capacity, autonomy, control and mastery in our ever changing bodies. Their special interest is lowering the threshold for moving our bits with focus on the queer community, helping gender dysphoria/ body dysmorphia through muscle and confidence building.

In the second session of Move Your Bits we are going to focus on learning the basics of how to make physical movement accessible to anyone, wherever you are mentally and physically. We will go through a set of exercises, their progression/regression and alternatives, so you can train your whole body in a space that feels safe and possible: at home, on the road, outside, in the gym, with minimal equipment.

Please arrive 10 min early to the room and bring clothes you are comfortable moving and perhaps sweating in. There are toilets close to Gymsalen that you can use to change and a changing room with a shower for the end of the session, if needed. Lastly, please bring a water bottle!

To make sure we create something that feels meaningful for all participants, please answer the following questions. The venue is fully accessible and the workouts can be adjusted 💛 Please let us know at the end of this sign-up form, we would love to hear from you!
