Our mission is to share cultural programs of mind, spirit and body with citizens of the world, to equip them with what they need to be mindful, restored, and happy. In particular, we offer tools of Yamabushi culture to anyone who feels that it is a useful path of self-awareness and self-development.
Communication of our precious local culture. In particular, the ways in which our culture can benefit the world.
Maintenance of tradition through sharing the experiences. Our work supports and maintains the local culture and manufacture as a business (i.e. Pilgrim Lodges, Shinto Shrines, Hotels, Local Food Culture including farmers.) We restore 10% of our revenue to the local community.
Promotion of peace. As the world becomes more global, tensions can arise. By sharing indigenous traditions with a global audience, we believe it creates a path to understanding and peace.

TREK WITH YAMABUSHI: WINTER ON MT HAGURO
Walking in the holy mountains with a Yamabushi guide has long been a way to seek purification and to feel restored. While most people come to Mount Haguro to seek spiritual solace in nature during the green seasons, this is a special opportunity to follow in the footsteps of pilgrims in the quiet and the snows of winter.
