Born 1965  in Heidelberg, Germany, as the son of a ghanean medical student (my father) and a german student of theology (my mother), my early years were spent in Germany, Switzerland and Ghana. Back in Germany, now 10 years old I couldn´t quite find much joy or meaning in school and at the age of 17 I left highschool and eventually my mothers home, to live on my own terms, driven by a longing for the beauty of nature and a meaningful life. I took a job as a landscape gardener, rented my own room and bought my first car.  A year later I met my spiritual Teacher. This encounter opened my eyes and led to the right questions to ask and seek answers for. My path was laid before me.

Just a few months later I started teaching Yoga in the Yoga school of my Teacher.

The 10 years of close contact and learning from my indian Yoga Master have strongly shaped my perspective on life. Learning about the ancient Philosophy of Yoga with its all-encompassing understanding of human life on earth induced a deep commitment to truth, reality and experience.

I wanted to discover how to live a meaningful life, for myself but also for others. In addition to Yoga I set out to find any idea, concept or technique that would deepen my understanding of my Self. 

I visited Gurus and ashrams in India, had lengthly conversations with christian monks in Germany and trained as a NLP Master Coach, did numerous Trainings like Tao Yoga, EFT, Kinesiology, even trained as a Dance-Therapist and a Breath Therapist. 

At the age of 25 I  admitted to myself that I still had a strong attachement to beauty and design. So I sat down, finished my highschool, first homeschooling myself, then later at a college for adults and went off to study product design at the University of Fine Arts in Kassel, Germany. One of the products that arose from this involvement is the  i-om meditation chair, which I invented and also patented. Since 2011 it is built in my own workshop and sold online. If you are interested in Meditation and have been struggling with a good sitting position, check out www.i-om.de and see, if this unique sitting device can be your solution to relaxed meditation. 

All in all I have established or was a cofounder of 5 Yoga Centers,  the German NLP Coaching association, The association for Montessori Pedagogy, Kassel and taught Yoga, Meditation and philosophy to countless people in workshops, trainings and seminars. During the last 15 years I focussed more and more on coaching people towards their true nature, the only source of happiness I know of so far. 1995 I put my ideas down in an attempt to structure what I had learnt so far - the result is SOUL ART, a comprehensive model of the interaction of human consciousness with reality based on the ancient teachings of Yoga and physical, psychological and neurological findings in western science.

From 2017 to 2022 I have coached  the patients of  Arcadia, a German clinic for complementary Medicine, on a regular basis. The experience of working with clients, people from all over the planet with serious health issues (mostly cancer), has deepened my understanding of the creative process originating from identification -  belief - emotions - hormones - resulting in symptoms, and I ultimately understood; the importance of authenticity. This is now more than ever the focus of my work as a coach. 

There are many other things I like spending my time with - taking long walks in the woods, generally being outdoors, dancing and singing with my children and friends, woodwork, playing the flute, the drum, gardening, good food...

Coaching and teaching Yoga have become my main focus probably because I see the deep need we all have to get back in contact with God, the good within us, our true nature.
