Sliding Scale Justice Pricing

We stand for leveraging our privilege to support others and offer the cost of tuition on a sliding scale. If you can afford to, please consider paying it forward by paying any amount above $450. People who contribute at the top of the sliding scale support our ability to offer scholarship spaces at a cost below the bottom of the sliding scale to those who would otherwise be unable to participate. This allows us to scale the price so that everyone is included. We are only able to offer scholarship spaces once we have a certain number of people contributing at or near the top of the scale.

$350* | Community Rate (discounted)
$450 | Sustainer Rate (pays for you)
$550 | Supporter Rate ? (support others as well as yourself)

Scholarships:

We are committed to cultivating a diversity of voices and life experiences in our workshop series and making them accessible to people of all income levels. A limited number of partial and/or full scholarships will be offered based on financial need with a focus on individuals from communities which have been historically marginalized and typically under-represented in yoga, counseling, yoga therapy and alternative healing circles. We explicitly invite participation by people who come from any of the following communities. We know that when these people are included, all communities benefit:

• People with visible or invisible disabilities

• People who do not have white skin privilege and/or who come from communities who, though in the global majority, are under-represented in positions of institutional power because of racialized discrimination and its direct and indirect impacts.

• Low-income/Poor or Working class people

• People who live and love outside the dominant norms of cis-gendered, binary, straight, monogamous relationships to sexuality and gender

• People without U.S. citizenship status, who are directly affected by U.S. foreign and domestic policy, including the many indigenous people of these lands

• People who currently work or volunteer significant time in the front lines of movements or organizations working for progressive social change, human rights, gender justice in the labor movement, housing justice, environmental & climate justice, youth organizing or community outreach

If you would like to be considered for a scholarship, please let us know by filling out this form.

Accessibly:

There is accessible parking & accessible restrooms in the studio space. Each session will involve movement, yoga, and time seated on the ground in a circle. There are bolsters and blankets at the studio for your use and comfort. Please bring anything that would increase your ease and enjoyment while seated on the the ground (ie. meditation cousin, back jack, stadium chair.) Please let us know in advance if you require any additional accommodations or have accessibility needs so we can support your engaged participation with awareness to your specific needs. ❤️

Self Care:

The content is facilitated through a trauma sensitive lens centering self and community care. Both Melinda and artemisia have training and experience navigating this territory and we will be holding the larger container of the group. Individualized one-on-one care may not be available. It is natural that due to the in-depth conversations in the training including inequity, injustice, and personal history sharing, at some point tension and trauma responses may arise. Please come prepared to support yourself in meeting your physical and emotional needs throughout the workshop and afterwards and let us know how we might best support you. Self-care will be addressed and encouraged throughout the duration of the workshop.
