QueerKin Circle is an online somatic-based relational support group rooted in a matrifocal container. We prioritize attunement, interdependence, embodied knowing, and collectively maintaining the relational field. You will be part of a protected circle where facilitators hold the frame and members learn to hold one another.

This group is for LGBTQIA+ individuals who are seeking embodied healing, willing to receive and offer support within a loving group, and ready to dismantle internalized patriarchy and oppression.

Welcome to your new tribe.

As a collective, we meet on the second Saturday of every month@2:00-4:30pm Pacific Time to facilitate critical deep inner work that can only be accessed within a group atmosphere that is holding up your essential intelligence and goodness. We will explore topical themes during somatic-based group movements and students will be able to participate in session demonstrations led by the teachers. The inner transformation for each participant will be rich and long-lasting.

The energetics of our Circle meetings is carried beyond the virtual walls of our meeting time. QueerKin Circle members hold weekly, recurring somatic-based listening session exchanges with each other, called Listening Partnerships, and provide listening support to each other during life’s challenging moments. The group field is active and alive 24/7 as members deepen into the healing experience by connecting with their cohort peers and engaging with new members during and between Circle meetings.

When you join our training program, you will be given the tools to exchange somatic-based listening sessions with other members of the group, helping you to break free from the Patriarchal oppression you no doubt feel (we all do) and into the reality of being held. You will come to understand that your best life is just on the other side of knowing you have a group of people who have your back. Members who join QueerKin Circle will receive all of the below and so much more:

  • Training in somatic listening and relational holding skills

  • Enrollment in three (3) monthly QueerKin Circle support meetings

  • Assignment to 1-2 peer(s) in the group for weekly recurring 1:1 listening swaps

Here’s what you need to know and when we’re meeting:

  1. Upon registering, you will be signed up to attend our four (4) hour training event on Saturday, May 23rd @ 2:00-6:00pm Pacific Time.

  2. You will be enrolled in our next (3) three Circle meetings on the second Saturday of every month @ 2:00-4:30pm Pacific Time, starting on June 16th.

This approximately four (4) month training program will assign you a peer within the program to set up weekly listening swaps. You will be able to message into our group chat feature to set up additional sessions with other members of the group, which is especially helpful as you deepen into your healing and need additional support for life’s stressors.

QueerKin Circle is all about co-regulation and discharging distress. By exchanging listening sessions with other members and attending our Circle meeting, you will have all of the tools to finally set down your trauma around belonging. You will also get the benefit of experiencing group healing movements during our Circle meetings and have the opportunity to participate in and observe direct student healing sessions with the teachers.

Here’s how to prepare:

  • All of our sessions are conducted online using a video conferencing platform, so ensure you have a computer and WiFi for our meetings. We are a fully virtual, international group.

  • You will be asked to be on video for this experience, allowing you to deepen into the group field and our connection. If being on video makes you uncomfortable, then this support group is not for you.

  • Come as you are. You will be sent an email the week of training with everything you need to know to be prepared.

If you can trust your intuition and join QueerKin Circle, you will have a wonderful, immersive experience that will leave you changed. We cannot wait to be with you ❤️

They believe our work together as a community will be our most enduring legacy, strengthening future generations to come.

Joleen Aguon Baza, M.S. (She/her)

Master Somatic Reclamation Practitioner, VAST by Emily Waymire

Joleen is a daughter to the island of Guam. She is a somatic practitioner whose work is grounded in trauma-informed, somatic, and relational approaches to healing.

She approaches healing as a collective and embodied process, emphasizing consent, co-regulation, and relational safety

Frequently Asked Questions

  • Anyone who is a member of the LGBTQIA+ community, questioning, or an ally. We are also international group, so members from around the world are welcome to join! 🏳️‍🌈

  • Yes! We’d fully encourage joining QueerKin Circle with a friend or two. We find bringing friends to the training program tends to deepen your existing bond and makes more healing available when shared within a community space.

    We would also ask that you take great care with this group. If you have friends who don’t feel safe to you or around others, then it would not be advised to invite them. Remember, you’ll be sharing a healing space, so discern accordingly 😊

  • Yes! The registration process for QueerKin Circle also includes an application. For our group to work outside of the Patriarchy, there are a few core values that must be in place for each member, which we will be evaluating with each registration that comes in. Our values for this group center on fundamental human rights and we are screening each participant’s orientation to them. When you submit your registration, you will be asked a few self-reflection questions - please answer them honestly. We will review your answers and let you know if you’re not an energetic match for the group (offering a full refund). However, if you don’t hear from us, that’s good. Assume you’re in! 😊

  • QueerKin Circle events are non-refundable once payment is made. If you’ve already paid for the Training Circle program or a Full Circle package and need to miss a scheduled event due to an emergency, please let us know and we will work with you to get your attendance rescheduled.

  • The nature of the healing work we’re doing requires timely attendance. If you arrive more than 10 minutes late to a group event or are a no-show, you will be gently turned away when you log on (not permitted to enter the virtual room) and a refund will not be issued.

  • Yes, each teacher has a limited number of openings each month for student sessions. If you’re interested in working with us, please email Chan at Chan@RootworkHealing.us or Joleen at Joleen@psychsomacenter.com.
