Planning your Professional Adventure Retreats

Collaboration is a key component at True Nature. We work closely with our clients to design a personalized itinerary that is specific to your company and your goals for the retreat. Together we will pick the dates, location, activities/excursions, service projects, wellness offerings, and more. Ultimately, these elements of our customized retreats promote team building while helping with stress reduction. Our underlying value of mindfulness allows our groups to expand their communications skills and techniques for both individual and team reflection. The highly qualified and talented professionals who facilitate our program will bring the right combination of leadership and spaciousness to ensure a challenging, productive, and FUN global experience!

Experiential Learning

"It is our goal at True Nature to give people an opportunity to take a step outside of their normal lives and experience a new way of travel and education that leaves a lasting impact on their lives and the lives of others." – Joshua Canter, Co-Founder, True Nature Education

Our experiential learning process focuses on both the group and individual experience. We ensure that each person has a chance to learn from real-life experiences, while also facilitating group activities that help teams bond and learn to work together. These experiences have been shown to improve creative thinking and problem solving, cultivate deeper team trust, and build lasting bonds between team members.

By partnering together, we will create an experience that is both life-changing for the individual and beneficial to your company's bottom line.

The professional adventure retreats are for every rung of your company’s ladder; executives, managers, working teams; every branch of your team can benefit from individual growth and team bonding and training. This trip can be viewed both as a team building adventure and an integral part of your company's rewards program. Everybody wins!

"A group becomes a team when each member is sure enough of himself and his contribution to praise the skill of the others." – Norman S Hidle
