It is not what you might think

Teachers who live what they teach. Plain talking. Real food. Real people.

Not this

It is not a spa

We won’t put you in a robe or hand you a treatment menu. The beds are bunks (we only use the bottom ones, unless you fancy some adventure). We do have nicer rooms too. The food is home-cooked vegetarian, with an extra dollop of love. We haven’t poisoned anyone yet.

Not this

It is not a silent monastery

We won’t make you sit facing a wall for hours. You can talk at dinner. You can laugh. You can have a cry if you need one.

Not this

It is not a yoga-barn treat

And it isn't a festival. Eighteen hours of mindfulness, meditation, yoga, Chi Kung and gongs — plain talking from teachers who live it. You don't have to know what any of that is before you arrive.

We’ve had the lot

Have you ever seen a builder meditating? Or a beautician, yoga teacher, barrister, or banker?

We’ve had the lot. No labels, no boxes.
