Body Acceptance Group Program
The Body Acceptance Group Program is an 8 week live online space for women and non-binary folks to divest from dominant culture and move into acceptance, confidence and joy through group coaching, mindfulness and restorative movement.
I've been there. I hated the image I saw in the mirror, I kept myself from doing the things I enjoyed most and I stayed small and silent to please everybody else. It caused an immense amount of pain, physically and mentally, because my body was sending me signals that I was ignoring. One day (or rather a series of many days) I said 'fuck this' and so began a journey.
I learned that I could accept myself just as I was instead of trying to fix and change everything. Freedom for me meant dedicating myself to this work and finding support for the journey. I believe you are worth the support you need and acceptance of who and what you are right now in order to live a full life.

Enrollment is open for the online September 2021 program - we begin September 26!
Group work might be right for you if...
- You are ready to reclaim your life and leave society's rules in the dust
- It's uplifting when you can hear other people's experiences and be heard by sharing your own
- You desire support in building a life around accepting your body and who you are right now
- You are ready to learn about the systems that have kept you small/silent and it's time to dismantle that shit
- You want to remove the shame when it comes to the relationship with yourself, self care and movement and are ready to get back into your body
- You long to build unshakable confidence, bring joy into your life and live out your damn dreams
"Caitlin has an incredible gift for bringing people together in community. Expectations for group norms are always made clear, so that all members feel safe regardless of where they are in their journey. She has mastered the delicate balance of lightness and seriousness and is tireless in pushing for a more compassionate culture. If you are new to the work of body acceptance and empowerment, either through (individual/ group) coaching or accessible yoga, I highly recommend Caitlin and the community she will build around you!"

"I joined one of Caitlin's yoga sessions and it was one of the most comforting and rejuvenating experiences I've had. She brought an intuition and awareness to her yoga that helped make me feel so welcomed as a beginner and showed that she understands how to anchor her flow to what's happening in the world today. Caitlin opened with a message about compassion that gave the session meaning and intention. The flow was gentle and featured awesome adaptations to classic poses, and she helped adapt positions to an injury I'm recovering from. I'm so glad I experienced one of her classes and I will most certainly be joining more."
