The Soul 'a' tude workshops offer a unique opportunity to to immerse yourself in an experience that is intended to cultivate the space for a unique discovery of "Who You Are". The Soul 'a' tude series provides both knowledge and experience to elevate awareness, assisting the success of an individuals journey, creating the space for personal growth, transformation and realization too occur.

Since this time michaels signature series of workshops have continued to evolve, offering an chance for participants to immerse themselves in very accessible material, skills, knowledge and technique,that has the power to redefine how you experience and express yourself in this world. As Whistler Wellness Week continues to grow, his intention is to continue to refine the content of Experience Soul 'a' tude, with new workshops that maintain and enhance personal well being.
