At Sea and Sky Mindfulness, we offer trauma-informed mindfulness and attention practices designed to cultivate connection, healing, stillness, and flow. Through guided meditations, mindful movement, and personalized training, we empower folks to explore their inner depths and embrace vast possibilities. Our offerings are rooted in traditional mindfulness teachings and adapted to meet the unique needs of each individual.

José Perez, the founder of Sea and Sky Mindfulness, is a certified mindfulness teacher through the Mindfulness Meditation Teacher Certification Program (MMTCP) and Inward Bound Mindfulness Education (iBme). Drawing inspiration from over 10 years of Vipassana meditation practice and 37 years of mindful movement, José integrates wisdom from mentors such as George Mumford, Donald Rothberg, Tara Brach, Jack Kornfield, and the Dharma Homies collective.

José’s journey has been shaped by over 20 years of experience as an entrepreneur and educator. He holds a Bachelor of Science in Special Education from Florida International University, where he graduated magna cum laude. As a former co-owner of several businesses, including a surf shop, an e-commerce venture, and a family candy store, José brings a unique perspective on balancing professional demands with mindful living.

Blending traditional practices with modern approaches, José’s teachings also incorporate Qigong, poetry, and the grounding rhythm of the ocean. A surfer since age 12, José finds inspiration in the waves, bringing a sense of flow and connection to every session. He offers a safe, supportive space for personal growth and transformation, inviting folks to explore the luminous nature of being.
