Patricia, our Congo Chief, successfully launched her very first Graceful Warrior group in Goma, eastern Congo! She divided her group into a Thursday evening and Saturday morning class. We were able to give them workout clothes, rape whistles, shoes, the GWP curriculum in French, and of course, personalized journals dedicated by YOU and they were so excited!

Patricia is all set with personalized workout and stretching videos, as well as video break-downs of all of the techniques that we went over so that she can review them before her weekly meetings.

Along with her two core groups, Patricia is fast-tracking two young women, one from Bukavu, Congo, and one from Kigali, Rwanda to be GWP leaders. They each had to leave in a month but they wanted to take The Graceful Warrior Project to their communities.

I will be monitoring the group’s progress through weekly facetime calls, making sure that they know that they are fully connected and supported. We were also able to help launch three sustainability projects so that the young women, as well as The Graceful Warrior Project in Congo, will one day be fully sustainable. We couldn’t have done this without you, so we just want to give a HUGE thanks for all of your support. You will be getting monthly updates from the leaders themselves, so stay tuned!
