Also if you *are* one such educator, lmk! I want to be friends and share experiences. :3
Does anyone know of any communities/organizations that specifically support trans, queer, and/or GNC educators? I would love to join/contribute. Pls boost! 💙
@spinach@witches.town I would expect nothing less
@vahnj thank you!! Hope you have fun too!!
@vahnj ooh fun! Sounds like a good time.
I'm doing alright! It's been a weird up and down week for me, but today's looking pretty nice. I'm doing some laundry now and later I'm playing badminton with a pal. :3
@Efi oh dear. :/
Hey friends! How's it been?
Exercise and pain
@SuzanEraslan@anticapitalist.party
I think I've heard of it, but alas I'm in the SF Bay area. There's lots of similarly body pos dance places around here tho. :3
It's actually slightly less about upper body strength and more about core. And I can attest as someone who is building both from a super low level, there's a lot of moves you can do using leverage that don't take as much strength. I'd suggest checking it out, it's worth a try. :)

A reminder to all binary and #nonbinary #trans people https://cybre.space/media/hPMfxu9nG3B2XNtAGE0
@Corax I didn't realize the white was for nonbinary people! (/intersex and transitioning). I was never sure if I should use the trans flag as a nonbinary person, and it's comforting to know I can! 💙💟💗

Hah! I think circus arts are fantastic! Honestly your life sounds like Goals to me (although I'd ideally do more lyra/aerial/dance performance, plus musical theatre, rather than clowning. But clowning is still cool!).
Exercise and pain
@SuzanEraslan@anticapitalist.party
Hi! So, since Oct I've been doing the Couch to 5k running plan, with some body weight exercises between run days.
Running is a bit boring tho (imo) and I've been wanting to get back into dance. I found a pole dance studio I liked back in Nov, and I've since gone to 3 pole classes and 1 aerial yoga class there.
Last week I signed up at the YMCA near me, and I'm now using the machines for strength, plus elliptical and zumba classes. I want to do more dance soon.
My abs are in such pain that it hurt to sneeze and laugh today. So I think I'm doing the exercise thing right.
@RussSharek@mastodon.art @alyx@witches.town
Lol, fair. :P
What kind of job do you have, out of curiosity?
@RussSharek@mastodon.art @alyx@witches.town
This is absolutely (and frustratingly) true. At least silly things like muscles also tend to be the simpler things... Emotional/intellectual growth is painful in different (more complex) ways.
@RussSharek@mastodon.art @alyx@witches.town That sounds... well, boring, but ultimately wise. I just wanna get to the fun stuff!! But I also don't want to hurt myself, so yeah, planks/push-ups are probably a good starting point for me, too.
@RussSharek@mastodon.art @alyx@witches.town
They're hard! I'll keep doing the countertop-level ones, though, until I get a bit stronger and can try doing them on the floor.
Ahhh okay, those I can do. Cool.
Awesome, looks good to me. :D
coming out, my mum's response
<3 That's wonderful~
