It takes courage and patience – humor helps!

Often, a lack of inner peace, strength, and clarity blocks the path to courageous determination and the desired change in life. As a martial arts mentor, I actively accompany you on your journey to self-empowerment, from the struggle of life to the art of living, with my many years of experience and passion as a practicing martial artist!

In movement you practice mindful precision and thereby find a way to clarity and inner peace. Your determination will be strengthened, your focus sharpened and your ability to act expanded. You learn to feel the preciousness of life and that you can only live in outer peace if you have actively created inner peace within yourself.

My main areas of work are:

  • Violence Protection and Violence Prevention
  • Emotion and stress regulation
  • strengthening of resilience
  • stabilization and empowerment
  • Constructive confrontation training
  • Health care through Shaolin Qi Gong & Rou Quan
  • Therapy support for trauma-related symptoms
  • Traditional martial arts with the samurai sword

How I work:

The art of self-education and self-help are mutually dependent. A clear view and a compassionate heart create courage and promote your determination and ability to live your life self-determined.

mindfulness allows Harmony and respect and is the leitmotif in my work with Kokoro practitioners. Mindfulness in thinking, feeling and acting means the ability "to be wholeheartedly in the here and now".

Only full presence enables a view of reality and its constructive acceptance. Internal martial arts trains a realistic perspective on circumstances and teaches the art of adapting to the demands of the moment. A lack of acceptance impairs balance and freedom of response. An existing imbalance always means a loss of one's center. Regardless of where the imbalance originates, it always impairs upright posture.

Martial arts work on your own posture and strengthen your core: physically and mentally.

In common Movement, encounter and reflection I will show you the art of self-education and promote your ability to help yourself.
