Dojo Bianco

Dojo Bianco isn't rooted in a family history of farming, where the art of harvesting, planting or pruning is passed on through generations, it is in fact the result of many years spent in the hustle and bustle of urbanism, the fast paced rhythm of corporate careers and modern living.

We come from cities, physically and psychologically, and it's there that we have developed a longing for more intimacy with the natural world, the cycle of the seasons and a strong sense of place. Our aspiration, commitment and daily practice, is to live a more balanced and sustainable life, to be at the same time farmers, healers and coaches, who partner with nature and connect with the generative power of the land.

For those who are wondering, the word Dojo derives from the traditional Japanese arts and means "place of training", however the word originates from Sanskrit and translates "place of awakening".

Horse theraphy

Working with horses is one of the most direct and rapid ways to building awareness about one’s own energetic presence and research shows that physiological benefits while interacting with horses include lowered blood pressure and heart rate, increased levels of beta-endorphins (neurotransmitters that serve as pain suppressors), decreased stress levels, reduced feelings of anger, hostility, tension and anxiety, improved social functioning and increased feelings of empowerment, trust, patience and self-efficacy.

Yoga

We believe that with Yoga there is no reward to strive towards, because the practice is the reward and that in every moment that you focus your attention by coming back into your body, your breath and your immediate sensate, you will experience a deep sensation of vibrant stillness and spaciousness.
Our Dojo is an ideal location to practice this ancient and powerful tradition, immersed in the beautiful Tuscan landscape, overlooking our horse paddocks with the vineyards in the distance.
We offer yoga sessions and workshops which will integrate the somatic and healing approach and teaching that sit at the heart of our own training.

Healing

We believe transformation happens through the body and there is no distinction between the body and the self. Our healing and somatic coaching approach aims to generate awareness on what is longing to come to life, create sustainable transformation towards a more fulfilled-meaningful life and allow a deeper connection to the aliveness that is inherent in all of us.
Our healing and coaching are based on the methodology of world leading organizations such as Barbara Brennan School of Healing in Florida and the Strozzi Institute in California.
