My work is grounded in traditional internal arts and shaped through over two decades of continuous practice.
Through long-term study of Wudang internal arts and related healing and movement traditions, I have been guided by experienced teachers and sustained immersion rather than quick certifications or surface-level training.

From the Heart. What others say...
I realized that you are sharing something that very few openly pass on - an ancient art of inner transformation, preserved by many, but truly taught by only a few. You open spaces where essence becomes tangible - beyond everything. It feels as if something within remembers… something that has always been there, but is now allowed to come fully alive. It goes far beyond personal experience. It is a deep touching of realms beyond experience itself. And every time we touch these fields, something fundamental shifts within.

"I must be honest : actually words can't suffice to describe what you can feel and achieve with Catharina's teachings.
EFFICACY. CENTEREDNESS. CLARITY. POWER. JOY. MOTIVATION and most of all HEALING. That's what you get with Catharina...I feel blessed and filled with gratitude for having a chance to learning with such a outstanding, powerful and beautiful soul here on earth."

Due to bone cancer at the age of 16 my shoulder blade had to be removed. Therefore the movement ability of my arm was severely restricted. With increasing age this had more and more effects on the health of my spine and much more. I fell in love with Tai Chi since I joined the first seminar with Catharina. Through seminars and 1:1 sessions with Catharina, I learned how I can nourish and strengthen my arm in a gentle way through flowing movements. Catharina has a special gift, that she transmits through her way of Tai Chi from heart to heart.

I wanted to share how my breath & practice have really helped me stay grounded after a very testing week after expensive repair to my car and this huge tree falling on my workshop and neighbours hairdresser salon. Had to get to work with no car, deal with tree surgeon and insurance. 1 month ago, I would have been a complete mess with stress, anger & anxiety. Qigong & meditation have been my saviours, enabling me to just be. Amazing. Thank you, Catharina. Thank you all for being on this journey together. Have a beautiful weekend. Peace love & light

The weekly meetings have become soul dates with myself. So much is happening already - it’s almost impossible to put into words...Awakening of awareness on so many levels. A new kind of trust in myself. Awakening. Breathing freely. Letting go. Cleansing. Strength and inner power arising. A knowing - an inner knowing - a yes to myself and to all that I am, unfolding steadily and unshakably. A foundation on which I can truly build. Thank you, Catharina, for your being ❣️❣️❣️

Catharina has been creating a space for beautiful connection. She both carefully and skillfully guides us to create more connection with ourselves. She achieves this by teaching effective techniques to help us open our bodies and spirit. She also has been creating a wonderful space for connection between the participants, so I've been feeling very much supported throughout this journey. Thank you so much, Catharina.
