Alter the Course offers transformative retreats for young people in the serene setting of Malibu. Their signature program is a 7-day, 6-night experience designed specifically for adolescents (12-17) and young adults (18-25) who need an intentional pause from their daily lives. The retreat provides a carefully structured environment where participants engage in healing activities including arts, film, music, writing, and hiking. Located near Zuma Beach, the retreat house incorporates daily morning meditation sessions and offers stunning sunset views from its upper deck. For those requiring a more concentrated approach, Alter the Course also provides 4-day, 3-night intensive sessions tailored to individual needs. The program directly addresses contemporary challenges facing young people, including social media pressure, anxiety, depression, substance misuse, cyber bullying, academic stress, and family issues. Through experiential learning, participants develop sustainable internal coping mechanisms and rediscover their innate passions as alternatives to quick-fix solutions like social media or substances.
