“For Life” experiences are designed to be fun, informative and interactive.

These are private experiences set up just for you/your group. The experience is all the more powerful  for this and we can deliver maximum learning to you over a short period. They are priced on the basis of 6 participants. Larger or smaller groups are welcomed. Prices on request. 

We also offer discounted rates for individuals, couples and family groups.

See the “what we do” page for a list of the key activities which form the basis of these experiences.
