ISTA is a mystery school and approaches trauma from the shamanic perspective of connecting with the body and soul. We recommend that if there is known deep-seated trauma, individuals seek one on one sessions and get approval to participate from their therapist before entering the group process.
From Congos Del Espiritu Santo (Dominican Santeria), to 21 Divisiones (Dominican Vodou), Spiritual mysticism pulls inspiration from indigenous Taino beliefs, African symbolism, and Europeans Roman Catholic rituals brought west by the Caribbean Trade Winds. Those same Trade Winds now make it the world’s premiere kitesurfing and Surfing destination.
