Join us for a joyful, 90-minute online gathering where we reconnect to our roots through food, music, and movement.
Led by trauma-informed personal trainer Àngel Casas (he/they) and Ke’alohi Naipo (she/her), a Native Hawaiian non-diet dietitian, this workshop centers healing, embodiment, and cultural celebration.
Through a nourishing cooking demo, joyful embodied movement, and music that moves the spirit, we’ll explore how ancestral practices can help us reconnect to land, community, and ourselves.

What is “Reclaim Culture Through Food, Movement, and Joy”?
This is a 90-minute virtual workshop that blends joyful movement, cultural cooking, and music. It’s a space to reconnect with your body, your roots, and your community—led by Àngel Casas (he/they) and Ke’alohi Naipo (she/her), a Native Hawaiian non-diet dietitian.
Who is this workshop for?
This space is for anyone seeking a healing, anti-diet, and culturally rooted experience—no matter your fitness level, background, or relationship with food or movement. All bodies and identities are welcome.
What kind of movement will we do?
Àngel will guide us through joyful, high-energy, low-pressure movement inspired by global rhythms like Vallenato (Colombia), Cumbia (Mexico), Soca (Trinidad), and Brazilian Funk (Brazil). You’ll learn simple, follow-along steps with modifications offered for all levels. Come as you are—no dance experience needed!
We move to celebrate, not to perfect. ✨
Do I need to be fit or experienced?
Not at all. This workshop is intentionally designed for all levels and all bodies. We offer modifications throughout—your pace is the perfect pace.
What will we be cooking? What ingredients do I need to buy?
We’ll be cooking tacos together and exploring how traditional ingredients like corn, beans, and rice connect us to land, ancestry, and culture.
You can use any protein you like (or keep it plant-based) and add your favorite toppings—think: onion, cilantro, tomato, cheese, sour cream, or your favorite salsa.
We recommend grabbing:
🌮 A pack of tortillas
🥫 A can of your favorite beans
🍚 Rice (plus a rice cooker or pot)
🌶️ Any toppings you love!
This is a flexible, joy-filled cooking experience—make it your own!
