About Us

Rooted in Connection, Growing in Community

Banyan Tree Women’s Collective (BTWC) is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit serving the San Francisco Bay Peninsula, rooted in the belief that health care is a human right. Inspired by the banyan tree, our work weaves together ancient traditions and modern practices across nutrition, movement, spirit, and lifestyle. Through free and accessible classes, community partnerships, and personalized support, we empower women and allies to take ownership of their wellness; mind, body, and spirit.

Our Wellness Pillars

  • Spirit

    Spirit is the heart of our wellness philosophy. Through practices like meditation, breathwork, and sound healing, we support emotional balance, mental clarity, and a deeper sense of purpose.
