kam yates (he/they)

Kam is a queer trans wannabe athlete from Missouri. He moved to Chicago to study film and video editing.

​

They had been looking for an affirming place to try out movement and fitness for many years and found Han Training through a mutual friend. He was too shy to try out a class, so he reached out to Minky to help with a school project. Since then he has become a prominent member of this community.

 

Kam’s favorite class is mobility and they are beginning to develop a positive relationship with their body. 

​

“I tried out lots of sports growing up, but since they made me feel dysphoric and bored I always quit. It has been lovely and healing to have a nonjudgmental space to work through the harsh feelings that being queer can bring up. I am thankful to be in community with people who bring out the beauty of being queer.”
