The first rule of Chill Fight Club? WE TALK ABOUT CHILL FIGHT CLUB.

If the very thought of conflict has you shrinking, perhaps it's time to befriend your fight response? So many of us (especially those of us socialized as women and girls) are afraid to embrace the power and beauty of this energy. Without fight response, nothing changes. Without fight response, we don't hold our own boundaries. When we don't honor the force of this animal urge, we are doing ourselves and our communitites a disservice.

Embodying primal energy, we'll emulate monkeys and move around in animal ways whilst praticing conflict in a safe and nonviolent setting. This practice, led by Nikki Rodney and Hope Hamling, is inspired by Fighting Monkey, a movement practice designed by Josef Frucek and Linda Kapetanea, is based on the idea that we must learn how to be adaptable in our movements so that we can handle whatever uncertainty might come our way with boldness and ease.

Expect a fairly physical practice that can be adapated for many different levels of mobility. While the word "fight" is present here, this is actually a super PLAYFUL practice, guaranteed to light you right up.
