Chapters
Said in an interview that it was the best holiday of his life. Which was crazy because it was not a holiday for me. For me it ended up being a crazy stressful situation. I brought in five members of my team and we now had to organize logistics. We had to, we found a co working space for these 300 people to work in. We, we had to develop a kids program because all of a sudden we were responsible for 25 teenagers and around 20 kids between the ages of 6 and 12. And we hired a school teacher to come and keep the kids occupied. We brought in teachers like Marissa up here to do special workshops for the kids. And I wish I could say it worked out, but I can tell you this, it was a frickin disaster. In fact, I want to show you this. There's a whole documentary, it's called the Barcelona Experiment. You can watch this documentary on YouTube and you can see what exactly happened. So this is a, it's a one hour long bar document.
The truth is we don't.
You can literally see me age as.
I meet Vision on campus to find.
Out how everything was going before the start of an exciting month ahead. So that, that the documentary is really fun to see, but you will see me literally age as I go through this. Now what happened is the school teacher quit in day two. She couldn't take it. But what happened was we had so many amazing parents there. We volunteered to co educate the kids. And Lisa Nichols, the Lisa Nichols, the brilliant speaker, happened to be on a yacht in the Mediterranean. And at a certain point I called her up and I'm like, Lisa, I have, I have like 50 kids. I'm responsible for this crazy project in Barcelona. The school teacher just quit. I know you used to work with kids. Would you be able to come and help us out? And Lisa, to give her credit, left her holiday, came and joined. So all of a sudden these kids were learning from Marissa Pierre, they were learning from Lisa Nichols, they were learning from Tony Gonzale Dallas, you know, this NFL linebacker. It was this amazing thing. I'm going to scroll forward ahead so you can kind of see some of the things that I'm Vision Latiani, I'm the founder and educators from around the world came to join us. This is what it looked like back then. It was, you know, Barcelona is a, is a more city. But we, we were able to make it work. And people loved it so much that the very next year we brought in a professional team. We called it Mind Valley University and we launched it in Tallinn, Estonia. And this is where we are right now. So all of this started with a weird experiment from my family to try to find a way to give my kids a good experience and to do it with other families. So firstly, if you are one of those 300 people who came to Barcelona, thank you for believing in this crazy idea. And I want you to know that watch the documentary and you'll see how, how, how chaotic it was. You literally see me break down and stressed out. But in the past couple of years we formalized the project and it's become one of the most fun, exciting things that I do for my children. They say Mindvalley University is their favorite time of the year. And for me and my friends, I have over a hundred friends who now come to Tallinn for MindValley University. Over 50 MindValley authors who come down and everybody loves the project because they say it is the greatest. It is the greatest community that they get to participate in. You truly make friends. I mean, look, you can go to an event that's three days, four days, you'll make acquaintances. But to make deep friendships, you need a little bit more time together. And that's what Mindvalley University gives you. So that is how it works. I want to take you through the project so you understand what it's like. The Mind Body University is such a visual feast. I want to play this video for you so you get a sense of the vibe. If you look at the visuals here versus that initial state in Barcelona, it's like going from a two star hotel to a five star hotel. But you'll get the idea. Now keep in mind the videographer who filmed this. Videographers tend to look for the most visual parts, the most well dressed people. So this video tends to focus more on the parties and less on the learning. That's just, you know, the cinematographer. But it'll give you an experience of how this project looks. Imagine if going to university was not four years, but was one month every year. This is Mindvalley's vision of university. And it's nothing like you would expect.
What makes this, what makes this tribe super unique is that these people are very, very, very heart centered. But they're playing a really big game when it comes to their lives. It's such an incredible tribe.
S.A.
Yeah. With all the negativity in the world and the politics of the world, you know, we feel like we're alone. I think there's a lot of us that if we unite, we realize that we are the changers, we're unstoppable. And we can make the world a better place.
What you're seeing now is the kids go down. So the event as you saw, you kind of get an idea of the event. And recently the event just won an award in the gold category. We won a gold award for best event in 2023 and I believe this was a European wide award in the European wider global. We won two gold awards, one bronze award. We won a gold award for community and a gold award for education. We are really proud of that. My team is really proud of that. And so we've really gone from this like experiment in Barcelona to building something world class. I'm excited if you guys get to participate through that video you kind of get a vibe of the event and you'll notice right, that community half of Mind Valley University is designed by event experts, right? The, the huge parties, the concerts, we have some amazing acts performing. We have incredible theme parties. We have rented literally Europe's number one maritime museum for in a celebration party. And when you walk in everyone's going to be dressed as mermaids or pirates and you will See World War II submarines and boats like suspended from the ceiling. It is unbelievable. All of that is created by Mindvalley but the other half of it is created by you People get an app and you get to submit to be a speaker. You get to say hey, I'm organizing a meetup to discuss long term goals at this particular cafe on this street at 5pm you get to connect with people and that's what makes it really special. We co create it with you. In fact, how many of you here have studied art of manifesting on mindvalley or know Reagan Hillier? Put in a yes, if you've studied Reagan Hillier on Mindvalley she was the number one author on Mindvalley this year. In 2024, Reagan Hildier was discovered at Mind Valley University. She joined our event in Tallinn in 2018 and she used the app and she said she decided to organize a cacao ceremony. 250 people showed up for that cacao ceremony. She came back the very next year with her husband whom incidentally she met at a Mind Valley event Huanpa and we put them on stage and again 500 people stood up to give them a standing ovation on stage. Two years later we signed them. And today Reagan and Juan Pa are both Mindvalley authors. And Reagan is the number one most watched author on mindvalley. Even overtaking me. But she was discovered at Mind Valley University. So this co creation also helps us discover Amazing new talent. Now the event is happening in this beautiful space. It is the, the number one conference center in Tallinn. And Tallinn itself is a beautiful event. You're not just coming Mind Valley or the community, which is amazing. You're coming to visit one of the most beautiful cities in Europe. But here's the other thing. One of the best value for money cities in Europe. In Tallinn you get, I mean you can get a hotel room for like 70 bucks a night, right? And the city itself is a gem. It's a medieval town. It used to be one of the richest medieval cities in the world. And it's a preserved medieval town. Check out this one minute video that gives you a glimpse of what Tallinn is like. It's why I chose to live here. And this video doesn't even do it justice. When you walk through the medieval city of Tallinn, it's literally like being in Disneyland. The whole city is enclosed by a a thousand year old castle. And it's a preserved castle. Like 27 of the turrets are still standing. And the reason we use Talon is because we want a city that is just the right size where there's so much to explore. But as you walk the streets you bump into other mindvalley members whom you will recognize from their armband. And so there's a lot of serendipity, a lot of meetups that happen. And Tallinn is perfectly safe. The teenagers have a habit of roaming the city and it's super safe till 2am in the morning. And by the way, in the summer the sun only sets for three hours. So the sun will set at like maybe some days. I think it'll set it like one or two and it rises at four and so there's a lot of sunlight. So the city is lit up all day. And that's what makes this such a beautiful place to visit. So let's talk about schedule and speakers. Okay, so there are four tracks, they're adult tracks. And then you can enroll your teens, your kids, your toddlers. Please keep in mind that the teens, kid and toddler segments always, always, always sell out. And we always have parents coming at the last minute begging us to get their kids in. Please don't do that. If you are interested, you must enroll your kids fast because it's such a good program. It sells out now over the. On the adult track they are 150 plus sessions on stages and then there are three main stages but they are also 100 plus sessions that people create across across the city in yoga studios and cafes using the app. This is a rough schedule. Take us take a picture of this. We're also going to send this out by email. You'll also find this on the website. It shows you all the major events. This is a mega summary. It shows you all the major speakers and all the major events happening every single day. And there are so many exciting speakers. Every Thursday, if you get a VIP ticket, there's a special VIP party with some incredible DJs. These parties are just beautifully done. We expect around 300 to 400 people. And the Mindvalley authors are at these parties. So typically the authors who are coming that they all show up at these parties. And so you'll be dancing at the dance floor and there's Marisa Pierre, like dancing right next to you. And then on Saturday we have a bigger event. Typically we have 7 to 800 people attending this event. This is our weekend celebration. And these are beautiful events, celebrations, parties. You know, half a community does not touch alcohol. So when I say party, don't imagine people over drinking. That's not mind, Valley. Parties tend to be very much the most popular drink is sparkling water. I myself am not a drinker. Most of our teachers do not drink. But we still have wine. You know, wine and beer if that's what you need. But I just don't want you picturing traditional parties. Our parties are more joyful celebrations and people bring their kids. So kids are running around everywhere all the way till 2am and there's a reason for this. You see, one of the inspirations for mindvalley University was a conversation I had with Naveen Jain. Naveen Jain, he's one of the authors in Mind Valley. He's one of the most successful and awarded entrepreneurs in America. He has the distinction of being the first private citizen to get the rights to land a robot on the moon. And when I met Naveen, you know, like it was about 12 years ago, I remember we were sitting in a bus and I asked him about his kids because all three of his kids, they were, they were in their 20s, were all brilliant. And I said, Naveen, your son Encore is so amazing. Like, how did you teach your kid to be so brilliant that at 24 he's able to start an app company and get Larry Page of Google to invest? And Naveen said, listen, vision. From the time Anko was six, I would take him to networking events even though they said kids were not allowed. I'd have Anko with me. And so Ankle would be in a room with all of these amazing adults and he would overhear conversations. And he'd hear them talk about their entrepreneurship journeys, the products they're building. And so he grew up with a different mindset from other children. And I thought, wow, this is an amazing idea. So I tried to find conferences that I could take my children to, and they were none. And that was one of the reasons why Mindvalley University was created. It was one of the reasons why I decided to ask other entrepreneurial adults to move with me and my family to Barcelona, because I wanted my kids to be exposed to entrepreneurial mindset outside the classroom. And, you know, Naveen had a point. Because if you type in Naveen's son right now, Uncle Jane, you will see his son at 34, just became a billionaire uncle, started the company. You can Google this. This is true. 34 years old, net worth 1.2 billion. He became one of the youngest billionaires in America. So whatever Naveen was doing, it worked. And got to give credit to Naveen Jane. He sparked this idea. So let's go further in week one. These are all the amazing speakers that I did. Now, one of the things about. And Naveen Jain himself is coming to speak because he helps spark the idea. Now, one of the things about Mindvalley University is that our speakers are very present. You know, they, they don't come get on the stage and get off the stage. They'll hang out. You know, don't, don't flood them, don't bother them, don't mob them, but they'll be there ready to answer questions, having coffee with you. You might meet them on a party. Don't, don't try to violate their privacy by filming them as they are dancing. They don't like that. But go talk to them. They are there as long as you respect privacy and you don't take out your phone. We really don't encourage, you know, random filming. The speakers are there, fully present. You will meet me at many of the parties. My kids are there with your kids. It's a very, it's a very different dynamic from many conferences because of the community. Many of our speakers come, and even though they are speaking on one day, they will stay an average of five to six days. And that's one of the reasons why this, this, this, this thing is so unusual. So these are the speakers from week two. Well, week one, many amazing names. Paul McKenna will be there. Sonia Choquette, the Monroe Institute. Week two, you will, you'll hear from Ronan, Charlie morley, Marissa Pierce, Dr. Shefali, John Lee. And week three, again, amazing speakers. Reagan Hillier, Huanpa and a couple of new names that I've seen on stage and I thought were amazing, like Adam Roa, Ollie Ollerton, Mary Christine that maybe those of you in Mindvalley haven't heard of yet. We always bring in new dynamic speakers as well. And these are just some. It's not just eight speakers a week. They're actually close to 20 speakers a week. Just wanted to do some highlights now on week two. Over the weekend, we do AI Summit. Because AI is such a big changing force in the world, we bring in AI experts. And this is four hours on Friday, Saturday, Sunday, week two. And if you want to get familiar with AI and learn how to go deep with chat, GPT, how to use tools like Gemini, how to build AI agents, the AI Summit is happening. And this was a big hit last year, so we're bringing it back this year. Okay, now you can scan this to get access to the schedule. So have any of you attended Mindvalley University last year? If you have, please put a yes. And I'd love for you to share in the comment thread. Your. Your highlight, your best memory. Okay, now let's talk about. So I see. Anna, put a yes. Viveka put a yes. Saul, put a yes. Irvin Valencia, you put a yes. If you can please type in a paragraph or so of your best memory, actually. Irvin Urban Valencia. So Irvin was the former athletic director for the New York Knicks. I met Ernie Irvin at a Mindvalley event. Urban, can I bring you live to maybe share your experience? I know you're coming back this year. Is that okay, Irwin? Okay. Wow, guys, I realized now we have 900 people live with us. It started out at 150. It's now 920. So could someone. Could a Mindvalley team member please make. Bring Urban Life. Okay, Urban, just making you a panelist. Urban, can you turn on your camera? Okay. While waiting for Irvin, let me continue with the. With the presentation. There you are, Urban. Nice to see you. Hey, Urban. So I. What. So you've come back to Mind Value University so many times, and Urban. Urban is a really remarkable man. I want you to know that the people who you meet at Mindvalley University are often doing amazing things in the world because you got to have certain freedom of time, freedom of money to come, bring your family, and, you know, work remotely for like two or three weeks. Irvin was the former athletic director for the New York Knicks. And Irvin, what are you doing right now?
So, hi. Greetings. Thanks for having me. Here, you know, I love Mindvalley. I love you. I love the community built. So, you know, right now I'm currently in Barcelona, Spain. I'm spending the months here. I am, you know, I'm part, I'm doing. I'm in my first, my one year of Eat Pray Love and my Eat Pray Love year right now. But I'm building multiple things towards like the end of this one year time off after working in professional sports for almost 20 years as a high performance director. And so I am currently, you know, a building a podcast with Sammy Shoebox Moses and his program. I'm building out a coaching program to support people who want more positivity and gratitude in mindfulness in their life, particularly for those athletes and high performers. And I'm also writing a book. So, you know, this is amazing time in my life that finally having space and time for this after 20 years in professional sports.
And Irvin has been so generous for so many Mindvalley authors who have traveled to New York. He's got them front row seats at MIX games. So thank you for that. Irvin, tell me, what's your best memory from Mindvalley University? Last year.
You know, last year. And maybe this is a bit selfish, but I think being back on stage and being able to host opening night party was for me one of the greatest memories for me because 20 years ago, 25 years ago, I was an MTV BJ and I pushed that all to the side for the love of medicine and sport. And last year was the second year that you invited me to be back on stage and do this. And I felt that feeling I had in front inside of me that wow, this is, this is the next step is why I've meant to be. To be back on stage in front of people and, and just serving other people. And I think for that was for me that that night was just amazing. Not just for me, but for everyone else. Because I think it was just a magical moment to begin three weeks of an amazing month in Tallinn, Estonia.
How many times have you come to Mindvalley University?
Oh, I started going to the first one in Barcelona, dude, like when it was just an experiment. We came from Ibiza, we went here and I've been to my event.
Awesome.
In a sense, yeah.
People do it.
Absolutely. I mean, if you can't stay the whole three weeks, which I haven't been able to because of basketball, you know, I stay one week, but I'm fully present. I try to really enjoy my time, learn as much as I can and create meaningful Relationships as much as I can.
Awesome.
Well, thank you so much, Ernie. I appreciate you and see you again, of course.
All right, brother. See you soon.
Okay, so let's go on. So you heard it from Ernie. Now let's go on and look at the youth program. So I want to invite Gigi to come live. Gigi is the director of our youth programs, and she's going to tell you about the amazing partners we are working with to bring unique forms of new education to kids. Now, this is so important to me because my daughter eve, who was 10, and my son Hayden, who was 16, are part of this program. So I really wanted to give them an opportunity to learn things that school does not dare touch. And this is where our youth programs are important.
Gigi, thank you so much. Vishen. Well, interestingly enough, everyone is going to be joining us at youth programs this year, so he will be speaking for our teens and sharing space with us. Yeah. So, hello, everybody. It is my absolute pleasure to greet you today. As you heard it before, my name is Gigi Marcus and I am head of youth programs for Mindvalley, which essentially means that I am your go to person for all things related to our youngest learners at Mindvalley University. I'm here today to share a little bit about what we have planned for the programs. As many of you know, we have three incredible programs. We have toddlers, kids and teens. And this is some of what we have planned for them for our toddlers. This year, we have the toddlers program for us. It welcomes kids aged three to five years old, and we've partnered with Wldorf Kindergarten from Estonia. If you're familiar with the Waldorf method, I'm sure you know that this experience is a treat for children. We have crafted an experience that's all about sparking creativity and encouraging imagination. And it's essentially about guiding our toddlers to through a holistic learning experience. It's about them connecting with nature, working together as a team, and learning along the way about empathy and compassion and so many other beautiful values. A lot of people make the mistake of thinking that because they're the youngest, the, you know, tiny little babies, three to five years old, then it is just a space where they're being, you know, it's a daycare space where they're just been taken care of and kept safe. But actually we have a full curriculum for them where they go through the learning experience and they become, you know, a lot more aware and a lot more in touch with the world around them and with themselves. So yeah, they're also learning about communication, about social skills. And the whole point of this program is to nurture a real passion for learning that they're later going to translate into their, you know, regular life. Next slide please. Yes, and about kids and teens. So this year we have partnered with Learn Life, which is a wonderful school from Spain and their method of education is incredible. They have taken years of research trying to learn and understand as many different methods of education from all over the world. And they have created their own curriculum that they work with at Learn Life Barcelona. And basically what we have done with them is that we have integrated experiential learning and STEM simulations along with a lot of activities around conscious entrepreneurship and sustainable practices, circular economy circumstances. A lot of very, very interesting and very content heavy kind of program this year for teens and kids. And everything has been crafted obviously with their help and our method of education at Mindvalley, we've also made space this year for creative exploration through music, drama, dance and of course, mindfulness practices that are very much aligned to what we do at mindvalley, such as meditation, mindful movement and many others. Next slide please. These are some of some awesome photos from last year. You can see here as well that we have some authors joining us in our kids and teens program. So you see there is Marissa Pierre, Lisa Clemens, Linda Clemens, and all the kids on stage with vision. So yeah, just as a quick note, we have limited spots and the tickets are nearly sold out. So if you want to live this experience with your family, I suggest you to go and secure your spots now. Next slide please.
Okay, and, and for those of you who are asking about ticket prices, we'll, we'll come to that. It's actually really affordable and I'll tell you how we make it affordable. So regular event, we're going to come to that in a moment. But you'll find that what you get, what you're paying for a week of mindvalley University is often less than what you'd pay for a three day event. The reason we're able to bring the ticket prices down is because we get the speakers to come and we, this is the mind, the MindValley speakers. But what we do is we arrange a mastermind for the speakers. So our speakers come and they are meeting their mindvalley, you know, team representatives, they're doing filming, they are connecting with other speakers, we are helping them with their social media, we are organizing special dinners for them where speakers can brainstorm with other speakers. So we add a lot of value to our speakers. And therefore the speakers reduce their speaking rate or many of them don't even charge for it because they want to serve. None of our speakers, for example, charge to speak to the kids. Right? And so we're able to bring the costs really, really, really low because everybody sees it as an act of co creation. So when you look at the ticket prices, you'll actually see that they are really, really, really affordable because we do all of these other projects with the speakers and so it becomes worth their time. Many of Mindvalley speakers, on average, if you want to hire a speaker to come and speak, it's close to, it's between 50,000 to 100,000 for a single speech. And we have so many speakers, we'd never be able to afford that. So by creating this unique opportunity for speakers to come and collaborate and we do all of this other work with them, press, interviews, podcasts, etc. The price goes down. So all the Prices are on mindvalley.com you by the way. And so let me show you, since you guys are asking, let me actually show you and then we'll go back to the presentation. So you can go to mindvalley.com you click on tickets and there are different ticket tiers. So right now we're giving a 25 discount for those of you who are on this webinar. So you can see a one week pass for adults is around 2,000. That is with tax. Now keep in mind that the tax depends on the country you're in. I'm logging in from Estonia. Estonia charges VAT tax, so it's 1 700, but I have to pay 373 bat. So it goes up to about 2000 for a one week pass. It's around 4000 for a three week pass. And then, and that's a VIP ticket. If you get a regular ticket, it's around 1400 for a one week pass. Right. Most people would take a one or two week pass. So it's about a thousand, it's under 1500 for seven days at Mindvalley you. And then if you look at the kids program, it's about $1,000 for one week. Even the Teens program, it's about $1 thousand for one week. So you can choose one week, two week, three week. All the prices are over here. And again, just remember VAT tax it, the system kind of knows the country you're in. And so depending on the country you're in, your tax will be added. Okay, that goes to your government. It's not by Us. Now, of course, some of you said the prices don't include living. Of course. So let's actually look at hotel costs.
Now.
You can use Airbnb. You can use hotels. Actually, let's, let's do Airbnb. So you'll actually find that hotels in Tallinn are not very expensive. I'm going to put in talents just so you get a view. Okay, so let's put June. Let's go to July. I'm just going to put July 8th to July 13th. Okay. Just as an example. So you can see, hotel cost, two travelers in one room. So you have to find your own hotel. And you'll see. Let's look at. Let's go for five star. Okay. So again, I'm going for the best of the best. A five star hotel. It's 152 bucks a day. So you can get a five star hotel for 152 bucks a day. Now in the U.S. you'll be paying around 400. So this is significantly less than the U.S. so this is the Radisson Collection. Five star hotel. You got a pool, two people, 150 bucks. So it's about 75 bucks per person. Right. So you can get some. Look at this one, 121 bucks. And I know these hotels. They're near my home. They are really, really good hotels. Let's say you go for three star because you're on a budget, you're paying. Doesn't seem to have three star hotels. Oh, here we go. Yeah, you can get a really good hotel, ibis, for around 88 bucks a day. And this is for two people. So you're spending around 40 bucks a day for one person. So it's, it's not that expensive. Tallinn is approximately half the price of the average big city in the US if you're looking at food and everything else. Now let's go to some stories of mine that Liu.
And I just came to Estonia and I booked one week and they came to me from first day, which was three days ago, Mama, we want to stay the whole three weeks. And I looked at them really happy. And I see a huge difference three days in and from a parent who is very involved with her children and sometimes being boot camp mom. I'm so happy. I don't even know where they are because I'm so safe and trusting so much in this program because I see the smiles in their faces. And that's the most important. We learn a lot from our kids. I do believe that. And yeah, just this is something that worth investing in.
So one of the things over here is that if you enroll your kids for one week, I can tell you that they're going to beg you to stay extra weeks. So just keep that in mind. In fact, the funny thing about Mindvalley University is that almost everyone ends up extending. At least half the people end up going, damn it, I don't want to leave. And that's not, I wish it was us, but it's not us. It's the friendships that you make. Because think about this. We are so used to seminars that are two or three days. You can't really go deep with someone. But when you're there for seven days, what happens here is that you get really, really, really close. And that makes a world of difference. Video about kids.
You feel like you are an adult and you're like in a conference, but you're actually a kid.
Like, the people who are gonna save the world are our generation. You know, like, this is school. This is how school should be taught.
I've learned more now than I have.
In a lot, like a lot of.
Months in school combined.
I'm grateful for meditation. Whenever I get mad, I just go in a corner and take five breaths. Then I meditate for five minutes. Then I go out and solve my problem.
How cool is that? I meditate for five minutes and I go out and I solve my problem. Okay, so there are tons of stories in Mindvalley University. You will find that. Now I want to show you one of the really cool things about Mindvalley University. As you know, we love to celebrate, right? Celebration is the ultimate act of gratitude, of bliss, of putting great vibes out there. And the parties at Mindvalley University are as epic as the parties at Mindvalley. Conferences like a fest, which are four days long. So week one, they are four different events for you to attend. Okay. On Monday there's a welcome party, Wednesday there's a mingler. We pick a really cool bar, everyone shows up and you just mingle. Thursday, if you have a VIP ticket, you get access to the Great Gatsby party. So VIP tickets get you seats which are closer to the stage, which is really nice because, you know, you never know. You, you're sitting often next to like really cool people and you get this extra party on Thursday, which is around 300 people. But what's really cool is that it's a great way to meet many of the speakers, many of the teachers who are there, and everybody gets access to the big end of week party which happens on Saturday. So let's look at what these events are like. Okay, so the welcome party is just a little fun event that happens at the Talent Creative hub. On the first day of Mindvalley University. Weekly Mingler is a chance for you guys to really connect and make new friends. VIP ticket holders. On July 4th, which is American Independence Day, we have a great Gatsby party. And we've rented this beautiful, beautiful, beautiful bar which looks like this bar is actually carved into a thousand year old castle wall and dungeon. And it's like going back in time and everyone comes dressed up in great Gatsby gear. It is so much fun. Now on Saturday we have a really, really special event. We're bringing in one of Estonia's big biggest pop stars and it's called the Legends of the Sea event. So we rented the world's Europe's best maritime museum. This is a place where you have incredible like ships and submarines to explore. Niraj Naik, the creator of Soma Breathwork, Mindvalley author and also an incredible dj. He's now collaborating with Black Coffee, if you've heard of that. Singer Niraj is going to be DJing. And everyone comes dressed as their favorite seafaring legend. Whether it's the pirate Blackbird or it's Ariel the Little Mermaid. It's really cool. And in this massive museum you are in for the most amazing experience. The kids absolutely love this. So we love costume parties because it kind of gives you a chance to be someone else and you know, we'll see the shyest people all of a sudden transform when they are dressed like a pirate. And so really excited about this one and the kids love it. Now week two, we have our usual weekly mingler which happens at a wonderful outdoor bar. Talon during the summer is just absolutely gorgeous. It's an outdoor city. Then we have for the VIP holders a jungle party. And I think you guys are really going to like this. We have rented the botanical garden. So you're in this glass greenhouse filled with the most beautiful, exquisite plants and everyone dresses in jungle vibes. So last year this party was actually organized not by us, but by our community. So our community put in money. There were a couple of guys in the community, they put in, they. They spent 20 grand and they put together this party and it was such a hit we decided to formalize it. And so it's a really, really beautiful event. And yes, you can get costumes in Tallinn. There are costume stores everywhere here. Estonians love Halloween, they love dress up as much as Americans do now. And yes, somebody are Asking, can you upgrade tickets? Gigi, do you have any information on that? You can when you get here, just talk to customer support. There'll be a customer support desk. We'll be able to help you upgrade. Okay, now, Earth, Water, Fire and Air. This is the midterm celebration with DJ Sammy Taggett, brilliant dj, often known as Shoebox Moses. And this takes place in. It's a beautiful building by the sea. And what's gorgeous here is that you get to see the sunset at, I think 2am the sea turns red, the sky turns pink, and the sun sets in the most beautiful way. And everyone dresses up in earth colors. This is a celebration of our connection to Earth. Now, week three is once again we have a weekly mingler. Then we have a party called the World, where everyone comes dressed in their national costume. This is for VIP ticket holders. Beautiful, beautiful experience. And then we have a closing party called Shimmering Horizons, and it takes place at the Tallinn Harbor. And here we're bringing in one of the best musical acts I've personally seen on stage. They're called the Overtones, and they, they just completely get a crowd up and dancing. So they're flying in from London and. And the Shimmering Horizons party. Everyone dresses in as their favorite shiny object. So I know you guys are going to absolutely love this. Now, our parties or celebrations are designed to create moments of awe that you never forget. There are photographers there that take all of the photos. And it's true, we find that at these parties with these amazing acts, with the, with, with the amazing experiences that we put together, people really connect. In fact, so many people fall in love at Mind Valley University that I had to get certified to be. I had to get certified to conduct weddings because I was asked to conduct several weddings of people who fell in love and met at Mindvalley University, and they came back the next year to get married in the Tallinn town square. So now, by the way, a certified wedding conductor, I'll do your next and I'll give you a discount, I'll do your next three weddings for 90 bucks. How about that? Right now you're going to get an app, the Agenda app. And on the app, you'll be able to see all the events happening on a given day because there's around, let's say 10 to 15 to 20 events a day, some by Mindvalley speakers, some by our team, many by our community. Right? And the app will help you decide what events you want to RSP for what you want to attend, and some practical info what to bring with you clothes for every weather. You know, it's a beautiful summer, but I haven't seen rain in the last two weeks. But maybe it might rain. You want to get outfits and costumes for the parties. If you can't pack it, don't worry, you can get it in Tallinn. And Tallinn has an opera house that rents out costumes and they have the most incredible costume. So you can literally go to the opera house, pay and get your pirate outfit or your shimmering outfit. It's really beautiful. You, you can buy a yoga mat here. You don't have to pack one with you. Definitely bring a water bottle. We do not like giving goodie bags at events because we feel it's environmentally irresponsible. Because with goodie bags you have sponsors give you all of this crap and then you end up tossing it away. We don't want that. So we're not going to give you a goodie bag with a water bottle or a mug or a T shirt. We just don't. We. I hate when events do that because they all end up in landfills. So bring your own personal water bottle. One of the most beautiful things about Tallinn is that the first food here, everything is organic and the tap water here is actually drinkable. That's not true for many countries, but here we drink tap water. I'm drinking tap water right now. Okay. So you can fill your water bottle anywhere and this is where you can get the attendee guide. And if you haven't seen it yet, that's where to get your ticket. Now all of this information you can find on mindvalley.com you okay. And if you're not a Mindvalley member, we want to get to know you before you, you, you, you come in. So you do need to apply for a ticket. Just, you know, share with us your LinkedIn, your Instagram. We want to see who you are. It's. Don't worry, it's. It's not like you're going to get rejected, but we just want to make sure that you're that, that we know who you are.

So if you want to buy a ticket, we're going to give you. Even though we're now at the late bird stage, which means the ticket prices are a little bit more expensive, we're going to give you a 25 discount for the next 48 hours. Okay. So the prices go down. So you can now get a VIP ticket for 1699. And you know, you're saving quite a bit. And these are the adult tickets, regular adult tickets. So look at that. One week is now 1200 and this is where you can get 25 off your tickets. Okay. So scan that to go and get 25% off your tickets. Now, I think that's the end of the presentation. Yes, it is. Let's put up the agenda. So I'll leave that up there for those of you who want to watch it. And let's take some questions. So you will see a Q and A box and all of you should have access to the Q and A box and you can ask questions. So go ahead and put in your questions and I'll answer what I can. You can also upvote other questions if you see a question that you really think is good. So someone said, can we get a copy of the party themes? Yes. We're going to actually send out a PDF with all of the themes, the dressing guide, so that you will know exactly how to come prepared. Someone said, Disney said, can I upgrade to a VIP discount ticket? Absolutely. Just go to the link I sent you. Buy your ticket, your earlier ticket, you can, you can refund it. Tiffany. So you can buy your VIP discount ticket and your earlier ticket. If you don't want the normal ticket, just email customer support. We'll get that refunded for you. Okay. Someone said, can I buy program merch? We might have some mindvalley T shirts and stuff. But, you know, I remember I'm a hardcore environmentalist and I don't like producing junk. So we, we really limit that it. And, and this is something unique about mindvalley. No goodie bags. We don't want to give anything that's going to end up in a landfill. But there might be a few T shirts or stuff that might be available there. I don't have that information. Sometimes we, we partner up with companies that produce mindvalley branded T shirts. Someone said, sounds like a whole lot of partying. Well, it depends on how you define partying. It's a whole lot of celebration, community and connecting. When you attend a Mind Valley party, I mean, it's not Like a party that you might be used to when you were younger in college. Firstly, as I said, most people don't drink. This. This is really interesting. We have seen this change over the last five years. I used to be a drinker. I haven't had a touch of alcohol since maybe February. Right. I occasionally drink. People tend to prefer tea, kombucha and water. And it's really about just being, connecting with people, celebrating, listening to music, their kids are all around. And you know anyone who does over drink, we take them out and we make sure that they get home safe. But we don't really. You. It's rare, really rare to see anyone who's over drinking at one of our parties. And so you wake up fresh the next day. That's really important. Someone said, is there a chat set up for those looking for roommates? I don't know. Gigi, do you know about this? Is there a way people can find roommates for Airbnb?
We do have some groups on Facebook that they can visit and they can. Yeah.
Okay, could you, could you maybe post a group in the chat? For sure.
Let me find the right link.
And someone said, where do I find clothes for the parties? They are costume stores all around Tallinn. Just when you get here, type in Tallinn costume store and you will find it and go to the opera. You can go to the Tallinn opera and rent costumes. So a lot of people are saying they want to upgrade. Gigi is there. Can they do that online or do they have to refund their ticket and buy a new ticket?
There is a form that they need to fill out for upgrades. So we'll be posting that.
Okay, you'll post that form. Great. And someone said, can I link my ticket to a specific week? I believe when you buy a one week ticket, as soon as you show up, your one week starts. Right. Seven days as soon as you show up. So there's an electronic system, it tags your ticket and your ticket will be valid for the next seven days. So someone said dates and location for next year. Next year Mindvalley University is going to be two weeks, not three weeks. And it's going to be in Amsterdam. I don't have the dates yet. It may be July, it may be August, but it's going to be in Amsterdam next week. Sorry, next, not next week, next year. We are moving cities to give people a bit of variety. Someone asked, what is the name of the app? It's going to be released to you in a couple of weeks. And I believe those are the questions. Okay, so I hope you guys in joined this presentation. And I'm amazed to see 950 people here at the peak. That was way more than we expected. Really enthusiastic and excited about the interest here. So I will see you in Tallinn. Thank you guys. And I'm just going to put up the QR code again so that you can get your tickets. All right, thank you.
