From the Founder

Three years ago, a small group of educators were inspired by the idea of bringing mindfulness into the lives and work of musicians and teachers and the Institute for Mindfulness-Based Wellness and Pedagogy (MBWP) was born. Focused on building a world-wide community of mindful artists and educators, our research-based, personalized, and ethical approach has been transformative for the many groups and individuals we have been privileged to serve.

At MBWP, we provide workshops, one-on-one instruction, teacher certification, and consulting for an increasing number of individuals and groups across the country. Our instructors are experienced artist-educators committed to helping you bring mindfulness into your life, work, and organizations. We are passionate about our mission, and inspired by the potential for mindfulness to bring about a kinder, healthier, and more compassionate culture within performing arts and education.

We hope you will come back and visit us as our institute expands its services, personnel, and outreach. In the meantime, please let us know how we can be of service to you.
