A podcast series that creates an intentional space for connection and interaction to help us meet our mission to remove the barriers to accessing fitness, health, and wellness for members of the LGBTQ+ community.

Quarterly Surgery Education
This quarterly class is offered to vaginoplasty patients and their caregivers at NYU Langone Health who get to learn about the procedure itself and what to expect pre and post-surgery.
The class has been sponsored by the OUT Foundation since its inception in 2018. The class is broken into different topics from mental health to surgical summaries presented by the medical team. We do our part on stage as well, demonstrating exercises on building strength pre-surgery and natural habits to expedite the healing process.
