Your Facilitator

Hi, I am first and foremost a human being dedicated to living a full-fledged life. I am also an entrepreneur, a senior full-stack developer, a truth-seeker, a martial art (always) student and instructor, a men's group facilitator, a men's coach, and a meditation guide. I love to spend time learning about everything and anything. And I love practicing!

Since 2008, I have been engaged in spiritual work and I am so grateful to have worked and trained with incredible human beings. Mostly, traditional Yoga philosophy/practices, Tibetan Buddhism philosophy/practices, the school of meditation Clairvision, and, more recently, Zen Buddhism.

Since 2011, I have dedicated my time to learning and practising Kali, a Filipino martial arts, and Wing Chun, a Chinese martial art. I now love teaching both arts to anyone open to learning and practising. Martial arts practice and philosophy is a perfect tool for men's work to cultivate their inner Warrior energy through self-mastery.

In 2016, invested in a challenging relationship, I acknowledged that I needed help to become a better lover, heal my shadows, and learn to be with very intense emotions; questions that spiritual work doesn't really address. 

How to love well a woman? What does your woman desire? What do you as a man desire? How to express it in a healthy way? How to provide a safe space for a woman's expression? How to be with intense emotions and hold space for your partner? How to be open and assertive? How to stay strong and vulnerable at the same time? How to connect deeper? What is the nice guy syndrome? How to stop being a nice guy? What is masculine power? And how to reclaim it? What is healthy sexuality? What is purpose? What is a shadow?

So many questions that no standard education system, nor the current culture and social environment is answering out there! So many challenges that men think they have to figure out by themselves, that I thought for more than 40 years that I had to figure things out on my own! I was, what we call, a lone wolf!

Since 2017, I engaged in men's work and have been fortunate to work with amazing men's teachers like John Wineland (David Deida lineage) in participating in his EMLT 8 months program in 2017-2018, Robert A. Masters doing 1on1 deep psychospiritual work in 2018 and his men's group full week immersive, Jason Lange participating into his Pillars of Presence program in 2019, Amir Khalighi participating into this MIIR program in 2020. Dedicated to his personal growth, he recently took the Authentic Relating Training Level 1 - The Art of Being Human - with Rick Smith in 2020. He is currently (2022) working toward his certification in professional coaching with the International Organisation IPEC. He is also trained and believes in the powerful IFS (Internal Family Systems) for coaches developed by Dr Richard Schwartz.

Committed to supporting men's growth, I am running a free men's group on a weekly basis in Singapore since April 2018. Its purpose is to provide a safe space for men to share what is real in their life. This group started out by acknowledging that I would have loved to know about such a group and find a men's circle when I needed it the most in my life, especially during my divorce back in 2002 during which I felt alone, unequipped and not supported to go through all the emotional challenges.

I am now committed to fully supporting men's growth with this 9-week program and workshops, lovingly and consciously baked from my personal experiences and practices.

All Glory to the Teachers!
