“Travis is a deep, thoughtful and open hearted human being who makes a living doing what he loves and shares it with others. That is courage at its best. The experience was pleasurable and growth filled. I used fruit and office supplies but my body was craving beautiful crystals and rocks so I look forward to doing it again. This is an art that can be done anywhere anytime and I liked that we can knock it all down and start again and I don’t have to store my art in a bin. This appeals to my minimalist nature. This is a great activity to practice solo or with others. Everyone should try rock balancing at least one time in their life.” -Betsy

I've been getting signs lately that I need to start meditating but every single time I try to meditate I get restless because there are a million thoughts and conversations going on in my mind.

I thoroughly enjoyed the experience and have already added it to my day!” -Tamara

“I enjoyed this experience. Travis is very thoughtful and the time spent felt structured and organized without being forced.

Travis is a world expert in this field so we felt lucky to have this time with him - we now are integrating rock balancing into our daily lives because of this class. Thank you Travis and looking forward to another class with you soon!” -Melissa

I booked it for my team to attend - we've been going through a lot of change so something that would get us out of our day to day made Travis' experience seem like the right choice. Unexpectedly, much of what he shared was very relevant to what we were experiencing so this was like a double bonus! Highly recommend to anyone looking for a team experience and especially for teams experiencing change!”-Bethany

“Master the universe, expand the limits of what's possible! Embrace humility as your stack of beautiful balanced rocks tumbles to the ground. This mindful practice will soothe your soul and ease your heart. Meditative, and a fun way to get out of your head. Awesome for adults and kids alike. Indoors or outdoors. We need this, especially now. Travis is a rock balancing guru who can teach you how to be present, embrace where you are, and let go. If you thought you enjoyed crystals before, you will enjoy them even more after learning to balance. I'm excited to create a garden of my own to bring a balancing routine to my day to day life. *Please remember to balance responsibly.* Travis has tips for leaving no trace when practicing outdoors as well. Highly recommend!”-Allison

“This experience is extraordinary! Joining this experience opened my eyes mindfully. I had no idea at all how to make a balance of rocks and imagining that piling 2-3 rock would be maximum for beginners like me, before joining this experience. I was wrong in a good way! I could pile more than 8...! It is not only being happy by improving and knowing how to do a rock art but also this promotes you to move forward without hesitation in your life.

“To say this experience was amazing or inspiring would be a gross understatement. Travis is the kindest, most encouraging and compassionate person. You can be open and honest about anything and there is no judgment. He makes no assumptions. And Travis doesn't tell you what to do, he teaches you a whole new way of looking at things. He challenges you to be present in a way I didn't think was possible - and it is. The entire time, he is there supporting you, checking in with you, guiding you. I could not be more grateful to Travis for this experience. It is truly one of the greatest things I've ever done on a whim. It isn't about trying to balance some rocks. It's about connection and energy and so many other things. Step outside your comfort zone, wear comfortable shoes and do this. Until you do it, you won't understand. So do it. And after you do? This review will make a lot more sense and I challenge you to adequately articulate how profound and amazing the time you spend with Travis will be. Thank you for everything Travis. I will never, ever forget this experience and the deeply buried inner strength you helped me find.”-Diane

“Awesome experience. Travis was very good at communicating all the details and it was very well planned and executed.”-Anna

“Before this experience, I could never imagine how to balance rocks rather than piling them up. Really magical, or more, science. It's not easy at the beginning to build good attach points and dynamically find weight center. I am still practicing. Travis guided us through and share his thoughts. It's also a good time to concentrate and talk to yourself. Feel less stressful after several hours playing with rocks. A nice getaway from your daily routine. I think yall will have fun.”-Rui

“Definitely a high light of my trip in SF. I enjoyed the moment to be present when doing the stone balancing.

Very nice!”-Yi

“Travis is a great guide. He taught me something I would never would have imagined in a thousand years. It was a nice experience. I highly recommend.”-Prem Anand

“This was a meditative and spiritual experience for me. Starting with the birdsong filled journey and landing on the beach in a relaxed and present state of mind. Balancing gravity's pull on the rocks with gentle and slight movements to find a point of strength held my full attention. All along, the sound of crashing waves against huge rock formations brought peace and reinforced the theme of construction and destruction in the world.”-Angela

“This is one of those experiences that marinates in your mind for several weeks after and one you will never forget. I notice the experiences are really booking up and it's because this is one of the most unique and soulful outings I have ever had. I took my adult daughter who is always going 99 MPH and we really enjoyed the chance to slow down and learn something interesting and internal while being among breathtaking beauty. We got some great pictures and learned a healing art together that we will have forever. Travis has a gift and you will come away inspired, enriched and just plain better as he shares it with you. Thank you, Travis. I highly recommend this!”-Kimberly
