Unceded & Undefeated with Alana Cook

A professional MMA fighter, a proud Métis woman, and a budding scholar in the field of Indigenous Health and Wellness, Alana has spent the last decade of her life embracing the beauty of active movement through martial arts, and re-discovering the incredible ways that Indigenous knowledge and Land-based learning can heal us from the intergenerational impacts of colonial trauma and forced assimilation. This “matriarch-in-training” will share her story of finding balance through sport, healing, and cultural self-discovery through the lens of an urban Indigenous woman: this Land remains Unceded and our People remain Undefeated!
