”Movement has always been a part of me. I grew up in the Netherlands doing ballet, inline skating, and started judo at age 8, eventually earning my black belt and competing internationally. For optimal performance I started strength and conditioning training at age 12. On this competitive level you learn what resilience & perseverance means. Wins and losses are a learning process.
After more than a decade of judo, I dove into Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, kickboxing, MMA, and even trained competitive Muay Thai in Thailand. Alongside that, I developed a love for CrossFit, and lately Hyrox. All of these disciplines have given me a very powerful mindset,
Competing in Judo and MMA also means navigating strict weight classes, so I learned early on how food affects the body, not just physically, but mentally. Today, I help clients build a healthier, more intuitive relationship with food, grounded in real-life experience, not rules or restriction.
With a lifetime of experience in sports, and certifications in health & wellness coaching, performance and sports education, I help people transform not only their bodies, but their energy, confidence, and relationship with fitness. If you are curious to my educational background, check out my credentials here.
I offer a space to build strength, reconnect with your body, and move with purpose and joy. Whether your goals are personal, athletic, or professional (like preparing for a competition or film role), I’ll be in your corner.
Now based in Helsinki, I train clients in person and online. Outside the gym, you’ll find me walking my chihuahua, at the movies (love movies!) or getting way too competitive over a board game.
Languages I speak: English, Dutch (Native) and Finnish
What does ‘Flow Nomads’ mean?
If we take a look in the dictionary, Flow means something is moving steadily, continuously.. A river flows. Yet a river is not the only thing that flows. We find Flow throughout life. Life is an ever-changing series of events, continuously, steadily.
A Nomad does not stay in the same place for a long time, travels from place to place. Yet we are not only physically nomadic. The mind may be on the move, searching, loving, creating, weathering a storm, not staying in the same place for a long time, traveling from place to place.
A Flow Nomad is looking for, and spreading happiness in an ever-changing world, with an ever-changing mind. To find Flow in a way that is truly holistic: nourishing body, mind and soul.
Flow Nomads represents a collective of health and wellness professionals, ready to help you improve your physical, mental and emotional well-being.
