We are excited to introduce our youth programs—immersive, dynamic, and intentional experiences designed for ages 9-18yrs.

Rooted in the belief that true well-being arises from harmony in body, mind, and spirit, our programs help young people forge deeper connections with themselves, their peers, and the natural world.

Throughout the year, participants will engage in meaningful practices that cultivate self-awareness, resilience, and purpose—supporting them in navigating life with integrity, confidence, and joy.

Seasonal Programming Highlights

June–August: Deepen your connection with nature, move your body with intention, and train the mind with practical skills for focus and discipline.
August–November: Embody movement as a source of balance, live with an open heart, and strengthen your connection to inner wisdom.

Through hands-on learning, guided mentorship, and community engagement, our programs empower youth to build confidence, foster meaningful relationships, and develop lifelong tools for well-being.
