Chartered Physiotherapist  I  Wellbeing Coach  |  Yoga Instructor

 

 

“Stefan is passionate about helping people from all backgrounds and needs to develop postural strength, flexibility and overall fitness, while at the same time learning more about their holistic body.

 

Stefan’s journey on his healing path started very much on the physical level. Working over 15 years as a chartered physiotherapist has given him a deep understanding of how the body moves & functions, and how one can develop strength and fitness in a way that supports the natural development of the body and its ordered structure.

 

Stefan incorporates powerful practices into daily life, synchronising body, breath and mind, while making deeper connections with inner guidance along the way.

 

By increasing awareness of the subtle energies that exist all around us, and nurturing our underlying emotions, Stefan truly believes that we can help to shape our reality alongside the intentions we choose.“
