I was at a low point in my life and was desperately looking for direction, peace and most importantly guidance. It was around this time that, by pure luck I came across the Warriors Path trip to Base camp. I jumped at the opportunity, to get out, clear my head and in the process challenge myself. Vikram's take on navigating an equally unpredictable journey, - life and his jovial nature and immense wisdom pertaining to life-skills, equipped me with the clarity, wisdom and courage to transform myself, into a proverbial warrior, ready to take on anything life has to throw my way. I highly recommend this program to those looking for a purpose, direction and just an alternative way / process to think out of the box.

I stumbled into the 4th edition of Warrior's Path almost by accident and am so grateful that I did. I went into it with no particular agenda except curiosity, and perhaps questions even I wasn't aware of. I think we all have those, and tend to block them out in the day-to-day. Vikram Badhwar, who conducted the programme, is a brilliant outdoor experiential educator and a gifted storyteller, with a warmth that effortlessly draws people out. The programme is designed to commune with nature, each other and most importantly, ourselves, through shared adventures, discussion and introspection. This isn't therapy, and it won't change your life. But it will help you drown out the noise and gain clarity of mind. I came away feeling grounded and re-centred. Navel-gazing in a stunning, peaceful location, with a healthy dose of adrenalin, and time for stillness - that's how I'd sum it up. I highly recommend it - you don't need to be a 'warrior' or looking for direction in some aspect of your life; you don't need an agenda. If you're a person with a degree of self-awareness and a desire for growth, you will benefit from this.

Once you return from the Warrior’s Path, the path would be right in front of you, not behind you. You bring back an elixir, re-defining the way you work with yourself and with others.
What you will bring back is a personal internal environment that is DIFFERENT.
It will never be the same again.
I agree to the terms and conditionsThe Warrior's Path was first launched in 2015 and has since been conducted in various geographies on rivers and mountains across the world. The program design is based on the culmination of 27 years of studying martial systems and philosophies and the observation that every person has within them 'a warrior' as well as 'a fighter' which are in continuous struggle within one another. While the 'fighter' acts impulsively and functions in the space of 'cut and dry', the 'warrior's' response is rooted in self-reflection and aspiration to resolve conflict peacefully. While 'fighters' tend to use force to communicate the message, the 'warrior' is an expert in silence and stillness - core ingredients of self-awareness.
The four-day program places participants within the folds of nature and focuses on deconstructing Person, Persona, Underlying Emotions and our Deepest Positive Intention. In other words, the program allows participants to understand the reasons for their masks and what they really need to be more self-aware as leaders.
The Path therefore allows you to reflect on your behavioural patterns and create a tangible shift of perspective. And personal transformations and breakthroughs are always a result of multiple perspectives and possibilities! There are multiple layers that we unfold to reach our deepest space - an inclusive space of our Inner Warrior.
