Since then, most of her time she spends outside- climbing, hiking, wild camping, walking in the forests, parks and other natural places. She has become over-passionate about hiking and is now keen to share the most beautiful places in the Swiss Alps with the others. During her outings she invites participants to experience nature differently: through mindfulness, nature connection practices & human element.\nRuta is a professional mountain leader ( Association of Mountain Guides in Switzerland), neuro-coach (Neuroleadership Institute, London), and forest therapy guide (Association of Nature and Forest Therapy, USA). \nBy creating Be Outside Coaching movement, she has connected her 2 major passions: activities outside and human development. Be Outside Coaching delivers immersive and holistic Nature experiences in the different corners of the Swiss Alps. So far Ruta has created over 70 treks and retreats and led with more than 1000 people outdoors.\n ‘ There is yet another way to be, to see , to feel, to lead. You will never hike the same way again after experiencing this.’  – Be Outside Coaching\nWhat do previous participants say about Be Outside Coaching?\n‘To be in nature means to experience everything: the sounds, plants, trees- to touch, to feel how everything is changing. It’s amazing to see how much nature gives to us. We must experience this again and again. I am so happy that I found out about the Be Outside Coaching.\nWhat Ruta does in those Nature Retreats is amazing and I wish to everyone to experience it.\n\n\nJurgita, teacher and school coordinator\n\n\n\nCan’t wait to see you in the mountains!\n\n\nFeel free to contact me in case of any question.\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n Your name\n \n\n Your email\n \n\n Event name\n \n\n Your message (optional)\n \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
