MISsion
Movement For Change is a multi-day festival brimming with activities and insights that unite passion, values, and community.
Climbing and yoga carry immense potential for cultivating a sense of responsibility toward both people and the planet.
Our guests will share inspiring stories of projects where these practices became catalysts for real transformation—bridges and solutions that bring people together and drive meaningful impact.
We will also shine a spotlight on the importance of equal access to outdoor activities and self-care, ensuring that everyone—regardless of background or social status—can share in these benefits.
We look forward to gathering with like-minded individuals who draw energy from movement and the beauty of nature, and to discovering where these days will lead us.

WHY?
As a yoga teacher with many years of experience, having worked and studied in different parts of the world, I have seen the tremendous potential for positive change that both the practice itself and the community built around it can create. My journey continues to deepen my respect for tradition while teaching me how to share yoga with care and awareness—without appropriation, with humility, and in a spirit of reciprocity and care for the world around us.
As someone deeply connected to climbing and the natural world, I experience the outdoors as a space for transformation. At the same time, I witness the urgent need for climate action, seeing firsthand the impact human activity has on the environment.
It is the intersection of these worlds—practice, nature, and responsibility—and the sense of agency they inspire that gave rise to Movement For Change. It is an initiative and a space for connection that brings together yoga, climbing, outdoor education, and community dialogue, grounded in shared values of environmental responsibility, equity, social justice, and embodied action.

PATAGONIA FREE REPAIRS
Free repairs of outdoor clothing from any brand, along with upcycling workshops where you’ll sew bags and chalk pouches from banners of past Patagonia campaigns.

ACCOMODATION
OUR FESTIVAL WILL BE RETURNING TO DOM SOKOLIK, OUR WARM AND WONDERFUL HOST FOR THE FIRST EDITION OF OUR CAMP.
Dom Sokolik is a 150-year-old farmhouse in Trzcińsko, nestled in the beautiful Lower Silesia region of southwestern Poland—close to the borders of Germany and the Czech Republic—at the foot of the Karkonosze Mountains.
This traditional square-layout farmstead sits amid a soothing rural landscape, offering breathtaking views of the twin peaks in the Sokolik Mountains and their distinctive rock formations. The house has been lovingly restored with meticulous attention to detail and a commitment to sustainability, emerging as a charming guesthouse surrounded by ten hectares of fields, forests, and hills. Inside, antique rural artifacts blend with industrial elements to create a uniquely inviting atmosphere for rest and relaxation.
Nearby, you’ll find two ponds, a stream, and a river. The grounds also feature a campsite with delightful, tucked-away spots among the trees and peaceful surroundings.
The area boasts beautiful hiking and cycling trails, the Rudawy Landscape Park, and renowned climbing areas such as Rudawy Janowickie and Sokoliki, home to top-quality rock formations.
Accommodation options:
🛏️ ROOMS FOR 2–6 GUESTS
🚌 camper
⛺️ TENT
FOOD
During Camp, we offer two meals a day: breakfast and a hearty late lunch–dinner, all based on vibrant and creative plant-based cuisine.
The meals will be lovingly prepared by Karolina Smulska, who shares her approach to nourishing others through her Kitchen of the Heart:
“The essence of my cooking lies in local ingredients touched with a hint of the exotic. I draw from the wisdom of Five Element cuisine, infuse it with a deep appreciation for the colors, textures, and flavors gifted by Nature, and season it all with a pinch of intuition. Each dish is finished with a beautifully crafted presentation—an added feast for the senses.”
Bon Appetit!

I ALREADY HAVE CLIMBING EXPERIENCE. DO I STILL NEED AN INSTRUCTOR?
You’re welcome to climb with others at a similar experience level, either in areas where the instructor-led group is climbing or in sectors of your own choosing. You can also count on the company and support of our team—most of them plan to spend their days on the rocks as well.
Feel free to join our specialized workshops covering traditional climbing techniques, including cracks and off-widths (brr!).
At the end of each day, we’ll gather around the table to share experiences and stories.
CAN I PARTICIPATE IF I DON’T PLAN TO CLIMB?

If you plan on preparing your own meals, just let us know during registration, and we’ll provide an adjusted price.
