Moving Rasa Southeast Asian Diaspora Men’s Group

Brotherhood and Belonging: A practice group for processing and action

What brings us together?

Our families, cultures, and histories shape how we understand being men. Together, we make room to notice what we carry, question what we have learned, and practice the relationships we want to build.

We explore belonging, masculinity, care, and responsibility—with space for joy, difficult feelings, and the things we are still figuring out.

What is a Gathering Like?

We connect through conversation, listening, and optional movement. We might begin with a check-in, explore a question through a simple movement invitation, or share something from our lives.

You don’t need to be a dancer or know how to express everything you feel. You can begin by listening. There is room to be playful, quiet, curious, or uncertain.

How we care for this space

We practice respecting names, pronouns, boundaries, and different lived experiences. We ask before offering advice and keep others’ personal stories private.

You choose what to share and how to participate. You can pass, pause, or modify any invitation.

Part of our work is noticing how expectations around masculinity—including sexism, homophobia, and transphobia—affect us and our relationships. We practice receiving feedback and taking responsibility for our impact.
