Who We Are
We are a community of diverse individuals from a variety of cultural and socio-economic backgrounds and countries. Every individual makes a unique contribution to this world, and has a special role to play in life. We want to help others find and step into their role as functional and balanced adults.
Mission
We are a spiritual (but not religious) community and we borrow fromWestern, Eastern and Indigenous traditions to offer teachings to people so they may build their lives in a way that creates whole human beings. Our community purpose is to connect to and be in service to those in need. In a world beset by division, tribalism, and anger, our program offers students tools to silence their minds, train their bodies, energize their spirit, and persevere through difficulties.
Our History
We have leveraged this knowledge to offer training to hundreds of students in the United States, Japan, and Australia over the last few decades. Below you can hear an oral history of our start in the mid 90's.
