Our passion is human rights. Our purpose is to connect mental wellness, resources and community to foster agency and Self love.
Kimiya is a 501(c)(3) focused on providing programs that help individuals reconnect mind and body through movement, therapy and a support system of peers. Our current program, Kimiya Fight Club, supports women in Dallas struggling with anxiety, depression, low self-esteem and PTSD symptoms. We use film to advocate for mental health, mental wellness and human resilience. Our award-winning documentary, Transitions, tells the story of how an American couple helped young girls transition out of brothels. Our current project follows the stories of Syrian refugee orphans in Jordan.
Kimiya developed Fight Club as a way to address access, affordability and negative stigma surrounding mental health and Self-care. Our holistic wellness program combines boxing, coaching, yoga and group therapy for women who are searching for a way to honor their inner creator and live their dreams.
The 12-week program includes a cohort of women who journey through the program together. Kimiya Fight Club is for women in Dallas who are ready and able to begin a new type of healing journey.
Kimiya is Arabic for alchemy; spiritual alchemy is the journey of freeing the Self, confined as a result of programming, trauma, life and our own fears. We advocate for human rights, healing and mental wellness by providing programming rooted in spiritual renewal.
