Why I’m Building The Embodiment School?
A personal vision, a collective mission.
After 39 years of personal lived research — through moments of joy and heartbreak, clarity and confusion, movement and stillness — I’ve come to one simple, profound conclusion:
Embodiment is the single most important concept and tool for fulfilment in my life.
It’s the thread that runs through all of my growth. It’s the anchor that brings me home when the world feels chaotic. It’s the lens through which I understand myself, relate to others, and meet the mystery of life.
Embodiment has worked for me
I haven’t always had the words for it. But looking back, the moments where I felt most alive, most aligned, most grounded — they were all embodied moments.
In the deep, sweaty release of 5Rhythms dance
On long walks in nature, breathing with the trees
In the quiet power of somatic therapy sessions
In movement explorations where something deeper than words begins to speak
These practices helped me find clarity when I was lost, connection when I felt alone, and resilience in the face of life’s inevitable storms.
Now, I feel called — urgently, wholeheartedly — to share what I’ve learned.
The Embodiment School is a vessel for impact
I’m building The Embodiment School to spread the practice of embodiment as far and wide as possible.
This is not just a project. It’s a mission.
It gives me a sense of direction that is bigger than myself. It’s my way of giving back — of turning my own healing and experience into service. I want to reach the people who are struggling, disconnected, burnt out, unsure, overwhelmed… and offer them the tools and practices that helped me not just survive, but thrive.
This is about impact. Legacy. Contribution.
It’s my way of saying: This changed my life. Maybe it could help change yours too.
A limitless living lab
I see The Embodiment School as a living laboratory — a creative, collaborative space to figure out how we can teach embodiment in ways that are accessible, practical, and powerful.
It’s not a static institution — it’s a vessel for growth.
A place to:
Experiment with different embodied approaches
Build bridges across disciplines and lineages
Train future facilitators, coaches, leaders, and practitioners
Make embodiment more relevant to everyday life — from leadership to love, from health to social change
It’s also deeply aligned with my core values: learning through the body, growth through experience, and truth through presence.
Finding my people
Another reason I’m building The Embodiment School is simple: I want to find my people.
I want to bring together embodiment practitioners, teachers, and seekers under a shared mission and brand — one that honours the diversity of our practices while uniting us through common values of authenticity, connection, and embodied wisdom.
I’ve been deeply inspired by The Embodiment Conference — their 10 themes, the community it created, and the boldness of the vision. I want to take that momentum and build on it. Ground it. Localise it. Humanise it. Make it real and relational.
This is not just my school — it’s our school. A home for those who know, deep down, that the body holds the key.
Final thoughts
Embodiment is not a luxury. It’s not a niche. It’s a necessity.
We are living in a time of disconnection, distraction, and disembodiment — and I believe that helping people come back to their bodies is one of the most meaningful things we can do.
The Embodiment School is my way of answering that call.
And I hope, if you’re reading this, you might feel the call too.
Let’s build it together.
