The course was well structured, and the atmosphere that developed was immediately relaxed and enjoyable. Dario is an empathetic teacher, full of tasks and, above all, contagious enthusiasm and inspiration that you can draw from. The activity with Nikola was also enjoyable and interesting. It is worth noting that the course is interdisciplinary and intended for teachers of all school levels. Therefore, the content provided cannot be considered a ready-made library to draw from, but rather a model to personalise and make your own. Choosing to attend the course in August in Split, as I did, also means dealing with the heat and a crowded destination during the hours when there are no course activities. I would recommend attending it outside the peak season, or choosing one of the many other destinations offered by the school. Thank you Dario!Posted on Google![]()

I really enjoyed the Mindfulness and Wellbeing course. It was a very enriching experience that gave me useful tools to manage stress, improve my focus, and become more aware of my thoughts and emotions. Well-being strategies for teachers: practice mindfulness, relieve stress and foster resilience was a well structured course, engaging, and easy to follow. I particularly appreciated outdoor classes, the practical exercises and the opportunity to apply mindfulness techniques to everyday life. Dario created a welcoming and supportive environment, making everyone feel comfortable and involved. I would definitely recommend this course to anyone who wants to improve wellbeing, develop greater self-awareness, and find more balance in daily life. Split is a perfect natural location!!!Posted on Google![]()

The course was a truly positive and enriching experience. It introduced us to meaningful concepts and practical activities related to mindfulness, which I found particularly useful. Our teacher was one of the highlights of the course. He was extremely kind, engaging and cooperative, always bringing a great deal of energy and enthusiasm to the sessions. His genuine personality and gentle manners created a very positive and relaxed atmosphere within the group. I genuinely came to appreciate him thanks to his authenticity and the passion he put into his work. What I particularly appreciated was the attention he gave to every participant. He listened carefully to our questions, requests and comments and was always willing to adapt, clarify and respond to our needs. He made everyone feel heard and involved. Overall, I found the course very inspiring, enjoyable and valuable. I am leaving with new ideas, practical mindfulness activities and a greater awareness of the importance of wellbeing and resilience, both for teachers and for our students.Posted on Google![]()

I had a very mindful week in Split partaking in the course: Building better mental health and wellbeing. The methods we were introduced to will be helpful in managing the everyday stress of teaching. It was great to have a local teacher, who could share info about the Croatian culture as well as the course material. The additional social program was lovely as well and the guides provided us with insights into Croatian history and culture and showed us some truly special places.

Course Description
Boost Your Well-Being in a Relaxed and Motivating Setting
Would you like to feel more grounded, energized, and positive—both personally and in your teaching environment? This course is created for educators who want to strengthen their physical and mental well-being by embracing principles of the Mediterranean lifestyle. Through a blend of mindful practices, gentle movement, nutrition insights, and cultural experiences, you will explore practical ways to build healthy routines for yourself and your students.
Whether your aim is to reduce stress, create healthier habits, or foster a more uplifting classroom climate, the course offers hands-on experiences and simple, effective tools to support your well-being—and inspire those around you.

Discover the Mediterranean Lifestyle and Bring It to Your Classroom
Throughout the week, you will dive into the essential elements of Mediterranean living: balance, community, and slowing down. Each day includes yoga and meditation sessions to enhance concentration and inner calm, guided tastings of Mediterranean foods, and an introduction to the Dalmatian “pomalo” philosophy, which encourages taking life at a relaxed, present-paced rhythm.
You will also explore Dalmatia’s intangible cultural heritage—its traditions, stories, music, and social customs—which play an important role in nurturing resilience, connection, and a sense of belonging.
Through outdoor activities, group workshops, and reflective exercises, you will learn how to integrate these healthy habits into your everyday routine and your teaching practice. You’ll return home with the mindset and tools to support your own well-being as well as that of your students, colleagues, and school community.

Learn Through Nature, Movement & Mindful Experiences
Our trainers will guide you through diverse activities designed to boost personal well-being and help you inspire positive change. From nature-based learning and seaside walks to breathing practices and digital wellness strategies, the course supports a step-by-step approach to building healthier habits.
Whenever possible, sessions are held outdoors—by the sea, along rivers, or in parks—allowing you to connect with nature while reflecting and practicing mindfulness. You will learn how to release tension, reset mentally, and appreciate the positives already present in your life.
You will also gain ideas on how to transfer these techniques to your classroom. Teachers influence the emotional climate of their students, and this course will support you in becoming a model of mindful and health-oriented teaching.
