Beyond barriers, towards belonging.

On October 17, our community gathered at the Santa Barbara Museum of Art for UNSEEN - a documentary exploring the intersections of blindness, immigration, and mental health—followed by a conversation about lived experience, access, and belonging.

Thank you to director Set Hernandez, Pedro joining virtually, and Blind Fitness Coalition member Adelaide Ortega for sharing your perspectives and stories with us.
A heartfelt thank-you to State of Mind Cafe for making this screening possible through their generous funding, venue coordination, and outreach. Blind Fitness was grateful to help bring our community into the conversation and support the event’s promotion. It was a joy to work together to create an afternoon of connection and belonging.

💪 Persistence. Dedication. Empowering Guidance. Collaborative Community. ❤️
That’s what Blind Fitness is all about!
This weekend’s Adaptive Gym Class was another wonderful reminder of what happens when people come together with a shared purpose.
Our blind and low vision athletes continue to demonstrate persistence and dedication as they work toward their individual fitness goals, challenge themselves, and celebrate progress along the way.
Alongside them, our incredible volunteers provide empowering guidance through encouragement, communication, and one-on-one support.
And bringing it all together? Our amazing instructors and a collaborative community committed to making fitness accessible, inclusive, and welcoming for everyone.
A heartfelt THANK YOU to our participants, volunteers, and instructors for showing up, putting in the work, and making another fantastic class possible!
❤️ Together, we’re building more than strength. We’re building connection and community.
Want to be part of the movement? Join us as a volunteer or help sustain our adaptive fitness programs through a donation!

Community support makes moments like these possible.
A heartfelt thank you to State of Mind Cafe for their generous support of our inaugural Play It By Ear Improv Series!
What began with our Intro to Improv workshop has grown into a four-class series where blind and low vision participants and sighted community members can come together to play, create, laugh, connect, and step outside their comfort zones.
We’re so grateful to have community partners who believe in creating more opportunities for connection, creativity, and inclusion.
Thank you, State of Mind Cafe, for being part of the journey. 💛
