Dear Tiger Riders, Guests and Friends of Durga’s Tiger School,
We are also deeply affected by the current news regarding the situation in Ecuador. The reports about armed conflicts, especially in the coastal regions and near the borders with Colombia, are causing concern for many people abroad – we completely understand that.
As long-term residents of this wonderful country, we would like to send you a personal and reassuring message.
Here, in Tumbaco and the Andes region, the situation is very different.
We are fortunate that our school is located in between the Airport and Quito, in a calm and rural environment. We have lived here for over thirty years and know this area like the back of our hand.
We want to assure you: Our home and our school are not located in a conflict zone.
The peace and positive energy that define our work here in Tumbaco remain unchanged. The safety and well-being of our guests are always our highest priority.
With this certainty in our hearts, we continue to invite you with a clear conscience to be part of the Durgas Tiger experience. We look forward to welcoming you to our oasis of calm, to practice, laugh, and grow together.
Heartfelt greetings from Ecuador,
The team at Durga’s Tiger School
