“My work with Tom and Flame was a real breakthrough. They introduced me to a new way of thinking, feeling and being that changed my life. After years of “success” in the business world (Xerox, and my own consulting firm) I am now on a journey of real growth and they are still there supporting me whenever I need it.”

Balance, Vision & Snowboarding

This is a five day event in the Colorado Rockies which combines the great fun of learning to snowboard with deepening the practices of center and balance, whole body seeing, emotional clearing and focused action.

Each morning we do balance, breath, vision, and core strength exercises, as well as meditate and share insights. Mid morning you will be given dry-land snowboard instruction and coached in the next steps to building your competency.
Each afternoon we go snowboarding on the mountain and put the principles into action.

During this time you receive constant support, coaching and instruction. Much like life, snowboarding is riding an edge, over a surface you can’t predict, staying centered, present, out of your head, adjusting, compensating, moving with what happens. When you fall, you get up and get back at it — it’s all about finding your rhythm.

In the evening it’s off time, relax time, hang out with friends time... time to re-coup. The next day we compare notes, share openings and difficulties, do the practices, receive instruction, then get out there, and have the fun of putting it all together again on the mountain. Guaranteed, you will love it!

“I was healthy, rich and successful. Within one year I had a health emergency, lost a lot of money and my most important relationship. The gift in all that was being referred to Tom Lutes. He has a highly developed ability to work with big ego, successful people so I was able to move through personal and business life issues that had prevented me from full self-expression all my life. This happened in an environment of full acknowledgment and support for those qualities that had created great results in my life. Tom’s partnership approach is ideal for executives committed to exploring their “edge”, to truly breaking through into an unbelievably magnificent future. I will always be grateful.”
