Why the name CAKE?
The premise behind the name: “You deserve to have your cake and eat it too”. The Trans + Gender-Expansive community has historically been one of the most underserved communities.
There’s systematic discrimination that oppresses all-trans folx, leaving them with the concept of “you can be trans, but at some expense or sacrifice” (safety, health, discrimination etc.).
​
The word CAKE has multiple meanings within this organization and as a part of pop culture.
CAKE can be used to reference a part of one’s body that moves during dance, as well as positively empowering the features of all beautiful bodies.
​
We believe everyone deserves to have their CAKE and EAT it too, that is why our health, wellness and fitness classes are for everyone.
