Why this trip 💡
This retreat centres the art, the mentor and your hands-on practice. Rock balancing slows the mind, sharpens attention and feels playful once you catch the rhythm. With Saurabh guiding the sessions, you’ll learn a creative skill you can carry anywhere a few stones and a quiet corner exist. The hills, streams and open sky are supporting characters. You and the work are the lead.
