📝 About Us

The Deaf Wellness Collective offers accessible health and wellness programming for the Bay Area Deaf community. Our free weekly Deaf Yoga in the Park class at Dolores Park is taught entirely in ASL by a certified Deaf instructor. We also run a mental health peer support group facilitated by a Deaf licensed therapist, nutrition workshops with Deaf dietitians, and seasonal fitness challenges. The Collective partners with local gyms and studios to negotiate Deaf-friendly group rates and advocates for wellness providers to hire ASL-fluent staff. Our mission is to remove communication barriers that prevent Deaf people from fully participating in health and wellness activities.
