About Us
Everything we develop is driven by one overarching question:
how can we help you
HELP YOURSELF
in your challenging environment
We know the pressures you face and have experienced the demands of a high pressure setting.
We know that it can create personal imbalance at best.
At worst, feeling disconnected from yourself, stuck, stressed and exhausted.
We also have experienced that using the inseparable connection between the mind and body generates sustainable, personal growth. This “embodied presence” creates balance and increases options. It makes you feel more energetic and calm, more open and balanced while managing your environment.
You are able to connect with yourself and others in a more profound way.
We want to give that to you!
Our courses help you understand why you do the things you do and how you shape yourself in the face of your current challenges.
You will discover what it feels like to respond as your best self.
And most importantly, the Body Comes to Mind courses provide you with practical tools.
Tools that you can use in the moment to manage your stress.
You will learn how you can remain calm and focused.
We look forward to working together.
Enjoy!

“We cannot solve the problems we face today by using the same thinking that created them.”
About Us
We found a common thread within the practice of Aikido, connecting “on the mat” from different parts of the globe.
Then we realized our shared passion and excitement around the simple and profound impact that the mind + body connection provides.
How we can use the depth of information that our bodies provide to learn, grow and more successfully navigate the mountains and valleys that life sets before us!

Founder Ki to Change
Embodiment Expert, Coach, Trainer & Author
I find nothing more fulfilling than getting people in sync! When we – as human beings, teams or organizations – live and work from a place where our thoughts, feelings and actions are aligned with what is important to us, everything becomes more effortless and increases in meaning.
Through my 30+ years of working with people through personal development change, both in and outside the workplace, one thing has become evident: If we want to be in sync, we need the body on board.

“When we connect our body and our head, we strip away our self-limitations. We find it thrilling to know that we can get out of our small selves and step into something greater, something that helps us be the person we know we can be!”
