About the Facilitator: Founder of Healing Without Hierarchy & Kapwa Flow Somatic Meditation, Jessy Zapanta (he, she, siya) is a community organizer, educator, and survivor-centered mindful movement and meditation facilitator born and raised in the Bay Area. Experienced in western and Asian bodywork, counseling, Raja Yoga, qigong, somatics, and improv, he has led workshops centering the experiences of queer, trans, gender-diverse, disabled, and neurodivergent practitioners, holding space for folks to reconnect to body, heartmind, and joy. Siya is passionate about accessibility and facilitates a modality of radically-inclusive movement meditation called Kapwa Flow which holds space for the collective needs of participants and draws from the Pilipinx concept of interconnectedness. She loves seeing the energetic shift when families or colleagues show up to these circles together. With roots spanning across Pangasinan, Nagasaki, and Fujian, Jessy’s path includes reclaiming diverse ancestral teachings, trusting intuition, and building intersectional, intergenerational communities of care.
