CORPORATE
Bridging the Gap Between Wellness and Performance
I have unique credibility in transmitting wellness principles to a sceptical corporate audience. Drawing on my experience at Goldman Sachs, I teach principles that halved my working hours while doubling output, with replicable results in private clients.
I work exclusively with organisations committed to actual change, having been frustrated by the empty talk I encountered in many corporate wellness programmes.

RETREATS & RESIDENCIES
Curating retreats ignites my creative spark like nothing else. As one participant noted, I am a skilled ‘drama queen’ with a knack for creating a magical energy to guide people out of their cocoons.
Experience: Over two years, I delivered classes, workshops and retreats at Selina’s digital nomad locations in Austria, Portugal and Ecuador. I was also resident at Alt_Chiang Mai, Thailand, and TheLifeCo’s 5* detox centres in Thailand and Turkey.
What I Teach: Tai Chi & Qi Gong | Kung Fu | Meditation | Movement Meditation with Dance | Coaching | Nature Walks & Cold Water Immersion | Group Connection Exercises
Offerings:
I can host individuals and groups in my base by Shaolin Temple in Songshan Mountain, China.
If the offer is exciting enough, I can be tempted to descend from my mountain lair to teach internationally in the ‘real world’.

‘Ben’s retreat is a life-changing experience, blending deep stillness with practices that push you out of your comfort zone. This powerful combination helps you form new perspective and enhance your relationship with all aspects of your life." — Sam
‘I had some AHA! moments which I loved, because it gives you the feeling of untying some knots of your life. For me it was the perfect mixture of physical exercise, community and inner work. I could feel this incredible power of silence and then suddenly you feel the clarity that Ben carries within himself.’ — Ela
