ABOUT THIS SUMMIT
The 2021 Embodied Social Justice Summit was a live, 5-day online conference offering a unique opportunity to hear from some of the most impactful voices at the intersection of embodiment, somatics and social justice.
We’re facing a critical moment in our history as the realities of systemic oppression and marginalization have heralded the awakening of a world ready to respond to the social justice issues of our time. The collective focus on this topic has seen a significant rise in folks committed to collective liberation, unlearning oppressive social systems, and restoring and repairing our social contract with one another. Love stands at the heart of all this. In the words of Rev angel Kyodo Williams, “Love and Justice can not be separated.”
Join us as we embark on the path of social transformation together!
SUMMIT EXPLORATIONS
During this event we’ll explore some of the most potent questions of our time:
How can we reimagine and embrace new forms of activism?
How do we take effective action in the world to respond to social justice issues?
How do we become the change we wish to see, and what does it look like from an embodied perspective?
How can we stay grounded and centered and increase our capacity for sustainable change?
Our current understanding of how trauma impacts the body has centralized the role of the body in alchemizing what has held us in cycles of reactivity and disconnection; unable to find each other in the reach towards healing our world.
We wish this summit to be an opportunity to absorb the wisdom of many incredible somatic and social justice change makers, and shine a light on the path forward on our collective journey.

“Our relationship to our body determines how we make our way in the world.”
OUR MISSION
We believe an embodied social activism is a sustainable social activism.
Our intention with this event is to explore the intersection of oppression and embodiment; how social and political structures are embedded within bodies (we include the psyche when talking about the body); and how through engaging the body we can respond to the social justice issues of our time, and begin the work of dismantling oppressive systems in our reach towards personal and communal liberation.
Where somatics meets social justice, for us, is where fear and paralysis can become the fire that fuels sustainable activism in the world. We wish to make this exploration as broadly accessible as possible.
There is a growing community exploring and teaching at the intersection of somatics and activism. This summit is intended to join our voices together for an incredibly powerful event. With the presence of each participant and presenter, we wholeheartedly believe that we can build sustainable and embodied processes for personal and social transformation.
