Learn More

Elevate your life with a U-MOST 3-day retreat. Our expert-led mindfulness, yoga, skiing, and snowboarding adventures are designed to promote joy, create connection, and elevate emotional wellbeing. Small groups will join with world-class ski and snowboard coaches and mindfulness professionals led by Erik DaRosa, Founder and CEO of From Survivor to Thriver LLC.

Erik knows firsthand the restoring power of the mountain environment. At the age of 33, he skied for the first time, which allowed him to open a new chapter and begin healing from the severe anxiety and obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) that had ruled his life since early childhood. Applying his experience in unlocking his own mind through skiing and helping his ski clients do the same, Erik and his team will help you take the next step or leap along your path to better emotional wellbeing.

Join us and become part of our unique community of thrivers who heal and connect through transformational alpine ski and snowboard adventures, one run at a time, one turn at a time.
