Descripción
Hi, I'm Dada J and I manage a 100 acre campus that includes a meditation / yoga retreat center, farm, a couple of families and a wonderland of upland granite bush. The center is owned by a volunteer organisation based around the understanding of all life being part of the same family.

Algo más...
Wild and rugged, the bush around here is breath-taking. Sculptured by weather and bush, the granite forms a landscape of cleft escarpments, boulders and watercourses inhabited by kangaroos, wallabies, koala and much more under the canopy of gum and wattle trees.
We're a meditation / yoga retreat center / organic farm in the middle of this and we also host a popular annual music and wellbeing festival (15 October).

Friendly, open and helpful, Tomoko & Kotaro were delightful to host. I was moved at how 13 year old Kotaro fit in with ease and quickly made friends in his new environment. Tomoko was open, warm and interested to learn. Happy to meet, sorry to part. Hope our paths cross again.

The time here with Dada J was magical. We got even more out of it than we had expected. It is blissful being out here in the bush, with kangaroos at your door each morning. We had some lovely excursions kayaking and hiking in the national park. It was lovely to take turns cooking for each other and have nutritious vegan meals, and Dada's delicious… read more

Lilli engaged in the working bee / retreat with mirth and curiosity. She gained respect and affection from everyone during the week she was with us. I recommend her for her good team work, communication and personable nature. She caps that off by being a great cook.

I had an absolutely amazing time staying with Dada. I had the pleasure of staying during a working bee, and we even ended up extending it form 2 weeks to 3. I loved that he focused on having yoga and meditation, and teaching us why it was important. I also loved that Dada is vegan and all the food was vegan, as a vegan myself and it can sometimes… read more

Manou was one of eight helpers working here for a two week working bee / meditation & yoga retreat. Bright and good natured she contributed to everyone feeling at home. She was diligent in her tasks whether on the farm or in the kitchen. She engaged in all the activities, many of which she enhanced with creativity and fun. I highly recommend Manou.

Dada and Didi do a beautiful job. it is a true community where everyone collaborates and makes you feel part of it. In those 8 days that I was there, I took many lessons that you have left for life. It is a beautiful place to rediscover yourself!
