WELCOME TO ST. BARTH SUMMER CAMP EDITION 11
In St. Barth, personal initiative and community-based action have immensely influenced what people refer to as the spirit, or the soul of St. Barth. The St. Barth Summer Camp Yoga Challenge is part of that soul and has become a yearly island event that has set precedent and created a sense of tradition for the island’s wellness community.
After a year spent teaching, traveling, exchanging, and learning to live with and past grief, I was inspired, for this 11th edition, by the language of symbols and numerology.
The number 11 is considered a Master Number that inspires spiritual awakening. It calls on the inner teacher to manifest in a mindful and meaningful way through intuition, positivity, leadership, perseverance, and connectedness. The number 11 marks time and awakens stewardship, reminding me of the inestimable value and experience of the wise elders who continue to guide my steps. Becoming a master of one’s own self means knowing and accepting oneself and embracing one’s humanity through the myriad changes one experiences in a lifetime.
Using life’s experiences, happy and sad, to grow kinder, to serve the world better, these are the hallmarks.
I am thrilled to welcome some very special guests and friends this summer : Greg Bosc, Sri Santhanam Narasimham, Daud Khan Sadozai, Loana Junco, Sylvie Millerot, Olivier Dorne, Kristine Kelly as well as local artists, young talent, artisans, elders and stewards.
Join me from July 15 to August 15, 2019 at Villa Seascape for a summer of personal and collective growth as we take a closer look at mindful action and livable consequence through the choices and intentions we dedicate to our yoga, meditation, mindfulness, movement and creative expression. Discover the art of being, and of being human.
