Eric Twitty

Upon graduating with a bachelor’s degree, Eric set off on what would become a two and a half year adventure, travelling and hiking extensively throughout New Zealand, Australia, and the Himalayas of India and Nepal.

He has spent the last 33 years exploring the majesty of the West Kootenay mountains and lush valleys. As well as bering an avid gardener, Eric has created and managed a thriving health food store, organized actions to halt old growth logging, as well as guided weeklong ocean kayak adventures off the wild west coast of Vancouver Island.

A proud father of a recently graduated high school son, Eric has felt the deep calling to be of utmost service and support to our youth, especially during the important transition into adulthood.Returning back to school after almost 30 years, he obtained his EA (Educational Assistant) certificate and has been supporting outdoor education for youth through the Forest Path programs and the PharaTree Learning Centre. He has also worked full time supporting autistic adults.

Trained in the shamanic arts of the Andean cross cultural Pachakuti Mesa tradition, Eric is excited to help foster a deeper sense of presence and authenticity within each boy through utilizing talking circles and heart felt sharing, as well as modelling, nurturing and instilling a sense of the sacred in all our relations.
