About the Project
“Link how to donate in the end of this text”
Through practices such as eco-building, permaculture and Yoga, our school will offer people an opportunity to immerse themselves within a place that is entirely integrated with the natural world. To discover the lessons of nature, learn more about themselves and their purpose in life.

The things learnt here will be totally transferable. Allowing students to apply it to their future environments and daily situations.

In the long term, sharing knowledge and skills will be directed through residential courses and student scholarships, offering subsidies whenever possible. As well as a wonderful karma yoga programme based around giving back to local communities and funding other similar projects.

If you, like Adam, believe that this knowledge and these skills are essential for our future on this earth, I kindly ask you to donate anything you can to help Adams vision become a reality and join him on this journey.

About Adam.

My name is Adam, I’m a Yoga teacher and Permaculture designer from the United Kingdom. In 2019 I gave up my life in the U.K. and with the wonderful support of my father, I bought a piece of land in the pine forests of central Portugal.

What made me do it?
A calling to live closer to nature through a holistic lifestyle and to share it with other people.
I’ve lived several fulfilling years teaching Yoga in resorts around the world. And it was whilst teaching on some of these retreats that I felt a sense of disconnect between what we were practising and how we were using the environment around us.

I am truly grateful for all of my experiences so far because they have helped me to define and envision clearly what it is I want to create and give back to the world.

How your donation will be used.
For the beginnings of the build I will need to employ an architect with expertise in these special eco-buildings.
I will also need to purchase some materials, such as bags for the structure and glass for the greenhouse.
I need to assemble a small building crew and kitchen team whilst we do the main build.
And I will also need to feed them.
