Student Led Groups

Diversity, Equity, & Inclusion Working Group

Seven Star’s Diversity, Equity & Inclusion Working Group (DE&I) is made up of students and teachers across all belt ranks and meets quarterly via Zoom to discuss and address issues of diversity and inclusion as it pertains to Seven Star’s culture and mission. Any student is welcome to join the group, regardless of previous experience working on these topics. If interested, email dei_working_group@sevenstarwomenskungfu.com. Our former Gender Education Working Group (GEWG) folded into our DE&I team in Fall 2024, after completion of revisions to our gender policy.

BIPOC Affinity Space

A great way to build more community with one another is having an affinity space. Seven Star has a BIPOC Affinity Space slack channel. It is a private channel. If you wish to be added to the BIPOC Affinity Space slack channel you can: send a slack direct message (DM) or email to Sifu Gina or Lara. No experience needed in creating, interacting or being in an affinity space. Please come as you are.
