S-CLASS

Muay Thai Wellness Network for Womxn Identified BIPOC Lawyers

The S-Class

Muay Thai Wellness Network for Womxn Identified BIPOC Lawyers
The S-Class is a physical and mental wellness program developed by Dr. Yumiko Kawano -- Champion Muay Thai Fighter and Personal Trainer -- and Tamara Sylvester -- Lawyer and Muay Thai Instructor Trainee -- of Krudar Muay Thai Academy. It will teach womxn identified BIPOC lawyers the art of Muay Thai as a form of self-defence, self-care and self-transformation. (WOMXN includes Womyn, Trans-women, Non-binary persons, Femmes, Women and Gender Queer persons).

The Purpose

To co-create a wellness and support network for womxn identified BIPOC lawyers to work together to:
  • Enhance their physical, and mental wellbeing
  • Engage in conversations about self-care, physical, and mental wellbeing
  • Inspire each other to prioritize self-care, physical, and mental wellbeing
Picture

The Rationale

A legal professional culture that has historically encouraged overworking, worklife imbalance, and perfectionism has resulted in high rates of mental illness and the de-prioritization of self-care among lawyers. These outcomes are more likely to occur among BIPOC womxn-identified lawyers, who face additional challenges and stressors because of systemic racism and sexism in the profession.

Building communities of support was one of the key recommendations cited in the final report of the Challenges Faced by BIPOC Licensees Working Group to eliminate challenges and inequities faced by BIPOC lawyers.

It is hoped that the S-Class will be an accessible and safe community of support and wellness for womxn-identified BIPOC lawyers that will serve to:
  • Provide an affordable structured program that develops physical fitness and mental wellness.
  • Normalize and revitalize wellness in the legal profession, alongside other initiatives such as the Canadian Bar Association’s Law Needs Well-beingBecause… Campaign.
