Community Building Programs
Joyful Heart provides free and open monthly events that bring survivors together in their local community. Currently in New York City we have programs with:
IntenSati
IntenSati is a workout that combines martial arts, exercise, yoga and affirmations to bring about improved health, strong body and focused mind
Gina Gibney Dance
Gina Gibney Dance provides a combination of movement, poetry and meditation to experience strength, hope and change.
These creative and movement focused activities provide a safe place to try something new together. Ongoing mPower Program are held in New York City and Hawaii to keep new and past participants connected. We bring survivors together and bridge them to healing organizations to build a strong foundation of community support.
Joyful Heart hold mPower Program twice a month at local domestic violence shelters. We provide pioneering programs that merge wellness and healing work with crisis work. Our programs are 32 weeks long (16 session) with a curriculum specifically designed to help women in transition become more confident, self sufficient, centered and aware of ways they can take care of themselves during a very stressful period. Sessions range from yoga, nutrition, child care, make-up application, art therapy, decorating on a budget and more. Joyful Heart is committed to bringing this program to additional locations around the country in the next year.
