Thank you!

Thank you to all who came on the Sunday beach yoga session. Sun shone and warmed up your savasana moment!

Vanessa is running her classes as soon as the weather allows from april to late fall. 

Thank you to all who joined the beach cleaning action at Godalen in Stavanger for the opening day. This was a simple way to put in actions the words "Let's put the oceans first"!

Now keep an eye on Clean Shores actions and join them!

Bravo to our young people, some had never danced before the day before! All went on stage after the breakdance and hiphop workshop led by Julien Boclé, artist-in-residence and Vanessa Livingston. 

Thank you Stéphanie Kretz for organising the science workshop for the kids, inspired by Yves Quéré, Georges Charpak and Pierre Léna initiative, to put more practice and joy in the learnings of sciences at school.
