Superfit Hero is proud to sponsor EVERYBODY Los Angeles' panel discussion, Reclaiming Health for Every Body: A Body Positive Conversation on Sunday, September 29, 2019!
Join this dynamic panel discussion that will explore what a healthy body is from body positive perspectives. They will address myths of “health” that falsely correlate to size, gender, class, race and ability and explore the unique needs of bodies that do not conform to able-bodied, cisgendered, thin, class-privileged and/or white identity.
Featuring:
- Alex Locust, counselor, community organizer, and champion of disability justice. Alex specializes in work supporting people with disabilities and is committed to raising awareness of the disability justice movement. glamputee.com
- Edyn Bryant, size inclusive yoga teacher with a passion for movement and holistic wellness. Edyn believes that health does not have a size, and is not a luxury, and she loves sharing this knowledge through a body neutral and anti-diet approach.
- Virgie Tovar, author of You Have the Right to Remain Fat and the forthcoming book FLAWLESS: Radical Body Positivity for Girls of Color (Spring 2020). In 2018 she was named one of the 50 most influential feminists by Bitch Magazine. She is the founder of Babecamp, a 4-week online course designed to help people who are ready to break up with diet culture, and is a contributor for Forbes.com.
- And moderated by Leah Garza, educator and activist. Leah offers community workshops centered on compassion, decoloniality, and radical healing.
