About this Event

rise strong club x idil's world present: Held


In a world that asks us to keep pushing, performing, and perfecting - what would it feel like to simply be held?

Join wellness educator and Nike Trainer Rebeckah Price and nutrition Educator Idil Farah for the inaugural Rise Strong Club gathering - a 4-hour immersive experience honoring Mental Health Awareness Month.

This isn't another wellness workshop promising quick fixes. This is about coming home to your body's wisdom through practices that actually support your nervous system, your gut health, and your mental wellbeing.


What We'll Practice Together:

🌿 Somatic Movement | Adaptive practices grounded in Rise Strong principles that help you listen to your body, not control it. All abilities welcome.

🌬️ Breathwork for Nervous System Regulation | Simple, powerful techniques you can use anytime to shift from overwhelm to groundedness.

πŸ₯˜ Gut-Brain Nourishment | Understanding the profound connection between what you eat and how you feel, with hands-on cooking demonstration and anti-inflammatory recipes.
🍽️ Community Meal | The practice of being nourished together - unhurried, present, held.

  • You're navigating anxiety, stress, or hormone changes
  • You're healing your relationship with food and movement
  • You want sustainable wellness practices (not another perfect routine to fail at)
  • You're seeking community with others doing this work

  • Adaptive movement session (modifications provided throughout)
  • Nervous system regulation breathwork
  • Gut-health cooking demonstration
  • Shared nourishing meal
  • Comprehensive practice workbook to continue at home
  • Connection with like-minded community.
