About Us

Lios Dana (pronounced LIS DAWNA) Dolphin Spirit Gate is a place for transcendent living, learning and being.
Located in the hills of southwest Ireland on the Dingle peninsula overlooking Inch beach, this stunningly beautiful land has been the destination for spiritual seekers for a quarter of a century. Irish for Fort of the Bold Warrior Artists, Lios Dana has been lovingly nurtured under the stewardship of Anne Drechsler and Michael Travers. Through the years we have been a home to a community of people seeking deeper and deeper health, connection, knowledge and spirituality. Now undergoing a rebirth and renewal, you will find Michael Travers and Eve Bruce lovingly holding this sacred space in service of the land. 
On a hill overlooking Inch strand, the dunes, Dingle Bay and the Atlantic Ocean ~ here you will find tranquil gardens surrounding a beautiful cream colored home with floor to ceiling ocean views. A perfect place to relax, rejuvenate, and renew. Walk the hills. Connect with the land, sea and sky. Meditate and study. Eat your fill of delicious and nutritious fare, the bounty of the Earth. Connect with kindred spirits. Watch the birds, the sheep, the dolphins. Swim and surf. Listen to spirit. Send out your intention and prayers at the standing stone and holy well. Hold ceremony in the faerie circle. And simply BE.
Our internationally known workshop facilitators will guide you as you empower yourself in finding and following your true dreams for yourself, your community, and for all our relations.
Blessed Be,
Eve and Michael
