Description

Content Warning: This podcast discusses physical and sexual assault and the resulting trauma. 

Today, we're talking with Jaimie Lee of The Coalition, a Krav Maga and martial arts gym located on East Franklin Street. In this episode, Jaimie and I talk through trauma as it can manifest in the body, and how we can use physical conditioning to help unravel deep emotional blockages. We discuss empowerment through movement, what makes a safe gym space, and principles of Krav Maga.
