OUR MISSION
To create sustainable communities through movement
About Us
Harakaty is a purpose-driven company with a mission to create sustainable communities through movement.
Harakaty has been derived from the Swahili word harakati, which means movement.
Movement is the essence of our everyday lives. It fuels our bodies, energizes our minds, and connects us to the world around us. Any disruption to our ability to move is an impediment to our quality of life.
At Harakaty, we understand the profound impact that movement can have on physical and mental health. Our programs have been designed to alleviate pain, improve mobility, manage chronic conditions, and increase strength using a combination of specialized movement techniques.
Building Sustainable Communities
Our Clients
We embrace diversity and we believe that wellness is for everyone. We have created a space where individuals from all walks of life can embark on their unique wellness journey. Our goal is for every person to thrive in the beautiful tapestry of the human experience. We are a community where everyone is honored, supported and valued.
Femikaty
Our commitment to social impact includes working with women from low-income communities to address pain and mobility issues using movement. We will provide our services for free. Women are the backbone of their communities, but they lack access to basic healthcare impairing their ability to provide for their families.
FemHealth
We are committed to advancing women’s health. We have created an online repository of female health and wellness information, and an online community for women to connect and interact with one another. On our social platforms, we will facilitate storytelling and community building with the goal of creating a sustainable support system.
