Arrive, breathe deeply, let go. Three words that encompass so much, say so much, and yet are completely serene. Here, at the archery range between Tinnum and Keitum, is one of those special places on Sylt that focuses on just that. But in a completely informal way, without much fanfare.
Peter Behrhorst and his wife Christine ensure this with their being and their project, the Youksakka Fun & Bow Company from March to October and now even year-round. They have been working on this over the past few months, with their creativity and craftsmanship. Two essential components of the extraordinary business model on Sylt. A true island monopoly. Calling themselves that would probably never occur to the Behrhorst family. In this special space, surrounded by a sports hall, soccer field and idyllic meadows, it's about more and yet much less. Mindfulness and awareness are two of the key words that come up again and again in Peter's taster course today. Gentle and powerful, in harmony with the bigger picture. "It's important that you concentrate on your breathing. Breathe through your lungs, into your diaphragm and stomach. This will give you support and calm," the experienced bow maker explains to his three students today.
