"Check out our class to see 'real results'"
"Have you seen these before and after photos of our method?"

She curated a business where people can ditch the diet culture and find ownership over and connection to their bodies through dance and movement.

In this session, she will talk about the history of diet culture, where we stand today as a society, and where we can go.

Kurzban will walk through the mental health benefits of regular movement.
