Brave Workshop with Heather Ding

A space for healing, resilience, and community.

This workshop is designed for individuals who have experienced sexual assault or abuse—and for those who wish to support loved ones in their healing journey. No matter where you are in your process, you are welcome here.

Led by Heather, a survivor and dedicated advocate, this workshop offers a safe and supportive environment to explore your strength, process your pain, and connect with others who understand. Heather has carefully crafted this space with healing at its core—drawing from her own lived experience of trauma to help others move forward.

Why this work matters:

According to the National Sexual Violence Resource Center:

• 1 in 5 women in the U.S. have experienced completed or attempted rape.
• 1 in 3 female survivors experienced it for the first time between the ages of 11 and 17.
• Nearly 1 in 4 men in the U.S. have experienced some form of contact sexual violence.
• 1 in 4 male survivors first experienced it between ages 11 and 17.

These numbers tell a painful truth—but they also call for action. We must speak openly, without shame or judgment. You are not alone. You are not to blame. And you are not broken.

Heather believes deeply in the power of healing in community—with safety, openness, and compassion at the center. Join us for this two-hour workshop to feel seen, supported, and empowered.

About Jiaren Yoga

Jiaren Yoga’s mission is to empower women and promote wellbeing by providing a nurturing environment to feel their body and mind. We welcome all genders and all colors of the rainbow!

A yoga practice is a chance to get rooted in who we are without being overwhelmed by the outside noise and today’s technological overload. This allows us to realize that our perspective on life is valued and beautiful in all of its complexity. Yoga helps us quiet our minds, open our hearts, and treat ourselves as sacred, opening pathways for comfort, expression, and awareness.

We love to share the life-changing practice of yoga with students in search of discovery, transformation, healing, and growth.
