ABOUT ROWAN CARR

Rowan Carr has over two and half decades of experience in the field of racial justice. He has held seats on Racial Justice Committees and currently acts as a consultant for Anti-Racist Cumbria. His current work involves developing protocols and courses to-reduce and heal the harm of racial injustice. He is the creator of ‘Tending the Wounds of Racial Trauma’, a deeply immersive and illuminating course for black bodies and bodies of culture who experience systemic racism and racial micro-aggressions. Rowan is qualified in Somatic Regulation Strategies, Embodied Coaching, Core Skills in Somatic Approaches to Healing Trauma, The Trauma of Racism, and is an Awakened Body Somatic Practitioner. He is also, an established, Meditation, and Yoga practitioner - teacher and founder of Black Body Heart-Mind Yoga and Consultation. Rowan’s approach to anti-racism is one of working to heal the harm caused by racism and its unspoken social contract of preserving white-bodied cultural supremacy. He states, “We cannot end racism without healing the harm caused to people that are in the grasp of white-bodied cultural supremacy, the roots of racism, and that is all people, and in particular, all black and global majority peoples. Racism is the pandemic which has been destroying lives since its inception, some three hundred years ago. Change will not come without new practices of ways of being in and of the world, and understanding what that means on a body heart-mind level is key to that change.”
