Meet Your Retreat Teachers: Experienced mindfulness & meditation educators

Extensive personal practice:
Minimum 15+ years sustained daily meditation practice, including multiple extended retreats (at least one 30+ day intensive silent retreat for teachers leading 5-10 day retreats)

Ongoing development:
Regular extended retreats for personal practice, peer supervision, continuing education in meditation teaching

Trauma-informed training:
Specific training in recognising signs of overwhelm and supporting participants skilfully through intensity

Commitment to accessibility:
Understanding that retreat is for real humans with bodies that hurt and minds that wander—not for people who've already achieved some mythical level of "good at meditation" 

But credentials only tell part of the story. What participants consistently describe is teachers who show up as whole people - vulnerable, real, genuinely interested in each person's unique process, able to hold space for difficulty without rushing to fix it.
