    Description

    My husband and I are currently building an alternative space for sharing positive energy, delving into ourselves, unraveling various life problems & complexities, and optimizing human potential. This space serves as a meeting point for free-spirited individuals with diverse uniqueness, backgrounds, ideologies, and professions, aiming to find common ground for synergy and collaboration. Our mission is to contribute to building a civilization and ecosystem more in harmony with the universe.

    How is that possible? by help each individual become the best version of themselves.

    Guided by our motto: "Think, Improve, Act, Change", our primary focus areas include education, the arts, and cultural preservation. As a significant step toward creating change, we are in the process of establishing a free alternative school where children can gain valuable knowledge, skills, and insights which not typically taught in formal education.

    Our regular activities include: spiritual meditation classes, alternatives education classes and also arts & cultural activities.
    Through the arts, we strive to preserve ancestral culture and local wisdom. We move from village to village to build local people awareness about self-discovery and ancestral culture that is being eroded by modernity.

    We also have a big dream of building our own village, a community based eco village, where we have our own system that aligned with the principle of sustainable living and in harmony in nature.

    Our place is located in Salatiga, Central Java. It is a peaceful village, far from the hustle and bustle of the city, with a lush, comfortable, and tranquil environment, characteristic of traditional rural life. Surrounded by green views of rice fields and farms, there are also several refreshing natural springs.
