Hosted by QTIFS and Azaad Healing Justice Studio, Charts and Parts is a one-of-a-kind healing justice workshop series that integrates astrology, IFS/parts work, and psychodramatic theater. The co-Facilitators, Sand Chang, Ph.D. (they/them), and Kulkiran Nakai, Psy.D. (they/she), will support participants to encounter and befriend the shadows of our inner family systems related to the themes and archetypes of the Spring Equinox and Aries Season.

In this 2.5-hour workshop, participants will immerse themselves in an experiential play space with other divine beings who share the collective calling to evolve old roles into new ones for the greater good. This workshop is best suited for individuals who are open to being vulnerable with others and willing to explore a unique healing outlet on the pathway to liberation and wholeness.

Benefits of attending this workshop include: 1) expanding awareness of one’s body and behaviors; 2) gaining deeper perspective on one’s personality and stories; 3) fostering greater connection to oneself and to others; 4) building a better understanding of the alchemy and integration processes; and 5) transforming the soma and the psyche through playful, collaborative healing.

This workshop fundraised $185 for the Dalia Association!

Drag is an anti-oppressive art form that’s existed throughout human history. Drag has served as a courageous catalyst for our creativity to generate new conserves and change the culture of identity and expression for gender and sexual minorities. In this workshop, psychodrama is applied to drag ritual and liberation movements through Joseph Moreno’s Role Theory, Augusto Boal’s Theater of the Oppressed, and Dr. Leticia Nieto’s Developmental Model of Liberation. Participants from all identities will warm up to healthy spontaneity and experience how role conflict invites us to widen our role repertoire and liberate ourselves to unmask authenticity through creating rituals and embodying drag art for collective healing and belonging.

In this 4-hour workshop co-facilitated by Ku,kiran Nakai, Psy D., (they/them), Daisy Martinez-DiCarlo, LMHC, LCP, CP, PAT (she/her), and Whitney Bell, MA, P-RDT (she/her), participants will begin by acknowledging the land and labor, and by establishing community space agreements for setting up a safe container for brave participation. Then we will move into a musical warm-up activity to bring us into our bodies and into our sense of identity and inner knowing.

Throughout the workshop, we will use self-reflection, group conversation, and craft supplies to create three pieces of wearable art that will inspire three different gestures / postures / body sculpts / movements, and mantras to showcase the story arch of unmasking oppression and liberating our authentic selves.
