Why QTBIPOC-Centered?
This space is intentionally crafted to honor and prioritize the healing of QTBIPOC communities. While allies are welcome if invited, the space’s tone, content, and care practices are rooted in centering those whose identities are often marginalized in wellness environments.

Why 21+?
This is a dedicated adult wellness space, curated for deep rest and mindful conversation without the distractions of a family environment. We honor the need for grown-up time in community wellness spaces, allowing attendees to fully immerse themselves in relaxation.
