Mental Health Boxing Program

OUR MISSION

We believe that quality health care should be inclusive. Everyone deserves access to mental health services and should not be excluded due to financial barriers. SNIWWOC has been committed to delivering these services to the BIPOC community, free of charge. An essential part of building good mental health is exercise, and one great way to build self-confidence, strength, and relieve stress is through boxing.

About the Program

In partnership with the Eastside Boxing Club, SNIWWOC previously provided free boxing classes to low-income and racialized women in Vancouver, BC. The program granted participants access to Beginner, Intermediate, and Women's-only Boxing, as well as Stretch, Core, Strength, and Conditioning sessions.

This initiative was shaped by the voices of our community members, who expressed a need for healing through movement. We remain committed to supporting wellness and empowerment through other active programs.

Although this program is no longer active, we are grateful for the impact it had on our participants and the community. We continue to explore new opportunities to support mental and physical well-being for BIPOC women.
