I combine the precision of Western education, the power of tantric rituals, and the wisdom of the body. I will gladly guide you through advanced bodywork techniques, tantric rituals, the art of breathing, and water rituals with elements of water tantra. I teach with firmness, openness, and gentleness. I have a very personal approach—I value trust, presence, and respect for your pace. It is important to me that you take away not only a powerful and transformative experience from the course, but also precisely mastered techniques. I teach courses in a practical way, with an emphasis on experience, touch, and natural contact with the body.
Because I believe that touch can heal both body and soul, and that tantric massage can be the first profound experience that opens the way to tantra. Tantric massage is a beautiful ritual that everyone should experience—as a gift to themselves.
My goal is for this sacred ritual to be not just intuitive touching, but a precise and sophisticated technique of working with the body and soul. For me, teaching is not just about passing on techniques, but a deep initiation into the art of bodywork, presence, safety, and authenticity. Tantra has taught me how to enjoy life, to perceive it through the body – and I want to share this experience with you.
Be yourself. Allow yourself to slow down, breathe, and be present. You don't have to know exactly what to expect—just be open to whatever may happen.
React as it comes. Be spontaneous. Be aware of your body, let yourself be carried away by the wave of experience. We all have our own path—and I will help you hear yours.
I used to draw energy from theater, yoga, diving in the Caribbean, or trekking in the Thai jungle. I lived in the United States for several years, in San Diego, California—and that lifestyle, the ocean, and the sense of freedom stayed with me. I love going back there.
Today, however, most of my time and attention revolves around my daughter Kira. I still enjoy traveling with her to exotic places, but more than ever before, I find fulfillment in ordinary children's games, arts and crafts, singing together, or just quietly being together. I am learning to see the world through her eyes—slowly, curiously, and with joy in the little things.
And when the moment comes for myself? I open a book, write a few lines, or quietly enjoy a cup of coffee. That, too, is meditation for me.
