Casa Selva
A school for being human in harmony with nature—a home for regeneration nestled in the medieval village of Castel Trosino.
Our Vision
Born from the vision of Laura Valenti, Casa Selva invites people to reconnect with themselves, with each other, and with the living world. Here, life unfolds at a slower rhythm: guided by the cycles of nature, the laughter of children, and the practice of everyday care.
Casa Selva offers a space for inner work, healing, and learning, where education is not just for children but for all ages— a school for being human in harmony with nature.
