Thank you for your support in helping us provide Free LGBTQIA+ Martial Arts Classes. I can’t believe it has been 7 years since we started holding these weekly classes, however it feels like now more than ever we need to invest in the health, strength and safety of our community. With your contribution, we will be able to expand this along with other programs centered on trans people’s needs.

Currently, we offer beginner-level martial arts classes at Suigetsukan in Oakland, CA, for the community, focusing on self-defense, and are raising funds to expand this program to the Pacific Northwest. In addition to this, we are expanding our programming to address the practical urban transportation needs through motorcycles, rider mentorship and protective gear.

Please help us spread the word about these programs, and if you are part of a workplace or foundation that has a giving program, we’d also love to hear about it! Traction Project would not exist if not for folks like you, and thank you for being a part of the community.

Take care,
Scout Tran
President
