The best teachers the world has to offer are rarely found in Educational Institutions.
They are the ones out there creating change in the world, they are the ones creating multi-million dollar companies, writing best-selling books, developing innovative products and processes, they are the ones talking on stage to thousand-strong audiences and building massive social media followings.
And they are the people speaking at Mindvalley University in Pula, Croatia this summer.
Mindvalley University is a month-long immersive educational experience held in a different beautiful destination each year, where parents can learn alongside children, where people passionate about personal growth and can form deep connections and learn from the world leaders in their respective fields.
Our curriculum is not covered by existing institutions. The subjects you learn are life long skills that really matter, skills like parenting, relationships, entrepreneurship, leadership, conscious living and much, much more.
