About us.

  • Who We are

    Women of Colour Remake Wellness focuses on creating a safe space for Black, Indigenous, and women of colour in the health and wellness space through shared dialogue and daily self-care practices, and inspiring mental/emotional, spiritual and physical health through daily health and wellness practices.

  • Our Mission.

    Our mission is dedicated to empowering BIPOC women, enabling them to embrace self-care practices while emerging as leaders within the health and wellness community. We aspire to foster an inclusive environment where women of color can truly be recognized and explore the full spectrum of wellness in their lives.

    Our primary objective is to offer a wide array of resources encompassing mental health, nutrition, self-care, and health insights, among others. Additionally, we curate a diverse range of events, including panel discussions, weekend workshops, and self-care Sunday gatherings, where women of color can connect, learn, and share their unique wellness journeys with one another. Through these initiatives, we aim to nurture a deeper understanding of holistic well-being, emphasizing the importance of inner health and well-being.

A Word From The Founder

Hello,

I'm Biatris Lasu, founder of Women of Colour Remake Wellness (WoCRW), a community organization established in 2020. Our mission is to make wellness and outdoor recreation more accessible and affordable for Black, Indigenous, and Women of Colour by creating welcoming opportunities to connect, explore, and try new experiences together.

The idea for WoCRW came from my own experiences navigating wellness and outdoor spaces. While wellness has become increasingly popular, many classes, retreats, and experiences remain financially out of reach. At the same time, Black, Indigenous, and Women of Colour continue to be underrepresented in outdoor recreation, often because opportunities have not been accessible or affordable, and many women simply don't see themselves represented in these spaces.

I wanted to create a community where women could feel represented, discover new activities, and connect with others in welcoming spaces—without cost being a barrier. What started as a small idea has grown into a community that offers affordable outdoor adventures, wellness events, workshops, retreats, and social gatherings.

Today, WoCRW hosts a variety of experiences, from hiking, camping, and stand-up paddleboard yoga to climbing, fitness classes, wellness workshops, and community retreats. Beyond our events, we also connect people with wellness resources through initiatives such as our BIPOC Therapist Directory and Yoga Directory, while working with community partners to make wellness more accessible.

My vision is for WoCRW to continue breaking down barriers to wellness and outdoor recreation by creating opportunities that are accessible, affordable, and welcoming. I hope more Black, Indigenous, and Women of Colour see themselves represented in these spaces and feel encouraged to explore them with confidence.

Thank you for being part of our community. I look forward to welcoming you to a future event.

With gratitude,

Biatris Lasu
Founder, Women of Colour Remake Wellness

 The goal of Women of Colour Remake Wellness is to bridge this gap – to create a space where Black, Indigenous and women of colour can feel seen and be a part of the health and wellness discussion.
