-In-person training in Lamu Island, Kenya
This portion of the training will take place in Lamu Island Kenya; A serene paradise untouched by modern chaos, Lamu invites you into a slower rhythm of life, where narrow winding streets replace roads and traditional dhows glide gracefully across turquoise waters.

Fringed by pristine beaches and shaded by swaying palms, the island is a haven for those seeking tranquility, with soft white stretching along the coastline and warm ocean breezes carrying the scent of salt and spice. Beyond its shores, Lamu reveals a rich tapestry of Swahili culture, where centuries-old architecture, intricately carved wooden doors, and coral stone buildings tell stories of a vibrant past shaped by African, Arab, and Persian influences.

Life here unfolds gently, from sunrise walks along Shela Beach to evenings lit by lanterns and filled with the sound of the call to prayer echoing across the island. The local cuisine is a celebration of flavour, featuring fragrant dishes infused with coconut, cardamom, and freshly caught seafood, offering a true taste of the coast.

With its welcoming community, deep-rooted traditions, and unspoiled charm, Lamu is more than just a destination—it’s an experience that transports you to another time, leaving you feeling both deeply relaxed and richly inspired.
