Meet Our Team
The Salish Sea School is committed to cultivating and preserving a culture of diversity, inclusion, and connectedness. We are able to grow and learn better together with a diverse team. We welcome the unique contributions that one can bring in terms of their education, opinions, culture, ethnicity, race, sex, gender identity and expression, nation of origin, age, languages spoken, veteran’s status, color, religion, disability, sexual orientation and beliefs.
​
We are stronger together with the collective sum of individual differences, life experiences, knowledge, innovation, self-expression, and talent which ultimately brings about a healthier planet.

​Each adventure program integrates mindfulness-in-nature techniques and Place-Based Education, creating an immersive learning experience that draws on the local environment to provide participants with authentic, meaningful, and personalized learning opportunities.
Through mindfulness practices in natural settings, we encourage participants to connect deeply with the world around them, fostering awareness, presence, and a sense of peace. This approach not only enhances their connection to the environment but also supports emotional well-being and resilience, allowing them to explore and learn within the landscapes they inhabit.
