About Me

Translated by Google. Click to view original.
I have trained sword fighting for more than twenty years.
I learned most from a Japanese teacher who taught in Amsterdam.

He was a true source of knowledge about these traditions and sometimes told me
that training is like a walk. It does not matter how quickly you reach the goal
but what you see during your walk and what you will take.

For me, training is more than just learning technology, but indeed following
of a path that always provides new insights, and confronts with its own strength, weakness and failure.

Since it is a martial tradition, there is a strong tendency to fall into kind of hardness, kind of imitation warrior, but over time it has also become clear to me
that training should lead to softening, mildness. Or as my teacher said training does not make softer harder.

I have experienced that training is a good way to face everyday life
Also with a friend I once learned. With what I taught him, he got another drug friend. A result that, incidentally, must be written to account for, not mine.

I can honestly say about myself that I know a few things but I am still at the beginning. The only thing I can do is walk and watch.

I've done teaching before but I always thought training was more important. That I am now teaching
to give has to do with the fact that I do not want to lose the knowledge I received from the teacher
let go pass.

he found not relevant as an indicator

that, too, was not what it was all about

Pilates classes with a certified Pilates instructor
I am a certified Pilates instructor and am qualified to give group lessons as well as private lessons. My passion for Pilates got ignited by my mother who is a Pilates trainer herself. I used to go to her classes and would always notice how no matter how I felt before a class, I always came out feeling better after. , after a while I decided that I'd love to be able to gift that feeling to others and that is when I enrolled for a Pilates teacher training course. I have not been able to find any studios near where I live that would take an English-speaking Pilates instructor, so I decided that offering online and in person classes as a freelancer might be a better path for me. This way I can also really give all my focus and attention to each of my students.

Consultation on Emotional Biodecoding (healing process)
As an emotional biodecoder, I want to accompany adults to heal the symptoms or conflicts that they may be manifesting, through exploration and self-observation (adults only). Locating those emotions that are trapped in the body. These emotions generally manifest themselves in symptoms on a physical level (illnesses, injuries, ailments, etc.) or behavioral (addictions, recurring patterns, mental blocks, etc.). Understanding the symptoms as messages that the body gives us and that allow us to know that the unconscious is still trying to solve a previous situation. Using different BDE techniques, we are going to find the root of the emotion and bring it to consciousness, so that, in this way, it can be expressed and lead to the healing process beginning. I have a Master's degree and international certification in International Coaching focused on Neurobiological Coaching (American School of Neurobiological Coaching - Cocrear - Flapco and European Academy of Neurosciences, Economics and Humanities); Ayurveda (Argentina) and Family Constellations (UK) Certifications in Yoga: 200 hours of multiple styles of yoga (India) and 300 hours in Kundalini specialization (India) Specialization in pre and post natal (US) and Specialization in children and adolescents (UK)
