From the applause of the stage to the powerful silence of touch.
My journey began in the world of expression: I studied acting, dance, and singing, spending two decades in the spotlight of international musical stages. Yet, while embodying roles and telling stories for an audience, I discovered a new, deeper calling beyond the stage: the art of massage and bodywork, incorporating human sexuality.
Today, I live in Zurich and am dedicated to the passion of creating spaces for true transformation. My teaching goes far beyond purely physical techniques; I use my stage experience with breath, voice, and movement to elevate the power of touch to a holistic level. At the heart of my philosophy lies the liberation from shame, the promotion of radical self-acceptance, and the ability to not only feel one's own needs but to articulate them courageously.
Over the past 17 years, I have explored and developed various methods in countless trainings worldwide. The quintessence of this research is my TOUCH & FLOW RITUAL. My fascination with this work led me back to my artistic roots in 2020, when I directed a short film (EROS TOUCH RITUAL) about it, which was screened at over 20 festivals worldwide and received eight awards.
In addition to individual sessions, working with groups is particularly close to my heart. As the curator of the NAKED MEN Festival, through collaboration with Schwelle Vienna, or at Village Berlin, I collaborate with facilitators from all over the world to make diversity tangible. Projects such as LIQUID LOVE for men, retreats on Mykonos, or the QueerSpace Zurich, which I co-founded in 2019, offer safe havens where people of all identities can meet playfully and authentically.
"I am firmly convinced that this journey of self-discovery is the key to a liberated and creatively fulfilled life – especially where intimacy and sexuality meet."
Most of the courses, events, retreats, and workshops presented on this website aim to create spaces where gay, bisexual, heteroflexible, homoflexible, queer, as well as sexually versatile cis and trans men, and individuals on the queer-masculine spectrum, can feel seen and welcome.
My massages, rituals, and sessions can be booked by persons of all genders and orientations. Read more about this here.
