Fierce Calm is a non-profit community of yoga practitioners from all backgrounds and abilities who have come together as a movement to inspire & empower each other without judgement and with compassion.
They want to make yoga accessible to all while supporting the most vulnerable in society and make the healing power of yoga and self regulation practices accessible to all within a diverse, welcoming environment of safety, inclusivity, dignity and empowerment.
Social justice is at the heart of yoga and we strive to remove all barriers to access so that all may lead happy, fulfilling and dignified lives.
Fierce Calm provide training scholarships and free yoga classes, directly or in partnership with non-profit organisations, in shelters and community spaces, for marginalised and vulnerable groups such as refugees, survivors of domestic violence, survivors of violence and conflict, and people facing systemic bias due to sexual orientation, income, age, racial or cultural identity.
CPD Training Scholarships
At The Minded Institute, we are committed to widening access to high-quality training for those supporting individuals and communities with complex needs. We are partnered with Fierce Calm to challenge inequities and expand access to health-promoting practices, especially in communities that have faced systemic oppression.
In partnership with our Course Leaders, we offer a limited number of fully and part-funded places across selected Continuing Professional Development (CPD) trainings. These scholarships are intended for practitioners working in under-resourced settings, including charitable organisations, community initiatives, and services supporting vulnerable or underserved populations.
To ensure fairness and avoid bias, all applications are reviewed independently by Fierce Calm, an established UK registered non-profit providing mental health support, trauma recovery and resilience programs within the Ukrainian state healthcare system in trauma rehabilitation centres, veterans hospitals, refugee centres and children’s hospitals.
