Body Liberation through Fitness with Damali Fraiser

Many people are moving to position body neutrality over body positivity and Damali believes it's both/and. As Damali says, "We are never just one thing and just as I am a fat black woman that may not always like every aspect of my "both", I wants to seek anything but neutrality when comes to my body!"
 
In this episode we dive into:

• Defining body neutrality, body positivity and how in the end it's more so about body liberation
• How we can achieve body liberation through fitness
• What it really means to be inclusive in fintess spaces
• Finding community and belonging in your body
• Getting to the root of why so many of us hate our bodies
• Brining equity, inclusivity, and plus size representation to the kettlebell industry

"Inclusivity is not just that somebody is included because people can be included and still not feel like they belong. Getting past token inclusion and really making it about full community care, so that when people are there, they're included, they belong." 

About Damali
Damali believes that coaching is meaningful and meaningful coaching is inclusivity. We find inclusivity in fitness through compassion and the practice of dismantling systems of oppression for every BODY. Damali is a former Muay Thai Fighter, Mother of 2, now a non-diet kettlebell and nutrition coach, owner of Lift Off Strength & Wellness (liftoffstrength.ca) who teaches kettlebells in an accessible size-inclusive approach. At Coaches Corner, she also offers coaches, of all modalities of movement, the opportunity to learn to teach kettlebells safely and confidently.
