Activities
TEAM
We have invited exceptional individuals from the worlds of outdoor exploration, extreme sports, mission-driven business, social activism, art, and personal growth to join us.
As we gradually introduce their profiles, you will see that they not only share our core values and make inspiring choices and commitments but also, above all, demonstrate the importance and real possibility of living in harmony with themselves.
As a longtime yoga teacher, I’ve seen firsthand—across different corners of the world—the transformative power of practice and the community it creates.
As a passionate mountain climber, I’ve also witnessed the urgency of climate action, experiencing the impact of human presence on nature in real time.
These two passions, rooted in responsibility and agency, led to the creation of EcoYogicCollective and the vision for CAMP—a space to connect, inspire, and take action together.
