NYCEMOVES
— OUR MISSION
Welcome to NyceMoves! We're excited to embark on a transformative journey with students, families, and educational practitioners from under-resourced communities. Here, we provide engaging curriculum, valuable services, and holistic wellness practices that are only practical and therapeutic but also culturally responsive and fun. Join us in making a meaningful impact together!
— The Dream of the Planet
At NyceMoves, we are passionate about empowering our youth and families to overcome the socio-economic challenges they face on their journey to success! We understand that limited access to resources like cutting-edge centers, mentorship, nutritional guidance, and financial literacy workshops can hinder progress and perpetuate inequality. That's why we believe in equipping individuals with the tools and strategies for self-liberation! Join us in our mission to create vibrant health and wellness hub that offers educational workshops, holistic practices, spiritual yoga and engaging nutritional conversations for students, student-athletes, families, and educators alike!
— FUN FACTS
Financial Illiteracy
"60% of college athletes never received financial literacy in High School, and 65% never received financial literacy during their college orientation"
Underresourced Communities
"Discrimination, stigmatization, and limited social networks further exacerbate the challenges faced by urban poor communities. The lack of resources and opportunities can lead to a sense of isolation and hopelessness, making it difficult for individuals to break free from the cycle of poverty."
Competitive Athletes Depression
“31.9 percent Adolescent Athletes have some form of an anxiety disorder”
OUR STORY
We’ve all heard the stories: a promising young student-athlete who fails to achieve her potential, or a young professional unable to manage the fruits of his success. Indiviudals from underresourced communities often have a double burden—they carry the hopes and dreams of friends and families along with their own, and their ‘map’ may be missing major features—they may not have access to the social-emotional or financial tools more affluent individuals learn to use in managing their business, financial, professional and personal choices.
"You are here to enable the divine purpose of the universe to unfold. That is how important you are!"
