About Us
Joe
I have been a lifetime practitioner of martial arts and a persistent seeker of truth.
A concise summary of my practices: karate, fencing to a high standard, and a year of training in China at the age of 17. During that period, I practiced Shaolin Gong Fu at a school established by several Shaolin monks in Qufu, i was also blessed with the opportunity to be tutored by a highly revered Bagua master. I studied Wu Dang Tai Chi in the Wudang Mountains, concentrating on a single form and practicing Sanda/Sanshou throughout my stay. Upon my return to England, I commenced training in Western boxing, Muay Thai, Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, and mixed martial arts (MMA). Ultimately, there exists just one true martial art. While I believe MMA provides the most realistic mechanical base for combat, I think it lacks a key element found in traditional martial arts.
I was raised as a Darwinist, an atheist, believing that material reality is all that exists.
Part from our training was qi gong practice every morning , i had no desire for this initially as a youth. All i wanted to learn was all the fancy kicks & exciting moves, nevertheless, after several months of concentrating intently on the sifu to perfect the techniques, I underwent a deeply transformative experience. One can liken the visual and internal experiences to those encountered in a psychedelic experience.
In that moment i felt the existence of the creator and that it loved me. my entire world view had changed. this was not pre meditated or taught this was just felt in the moment.
Since then it has always been my desire to build a place, a place that combines all that i know of this way of life and everything i have learnt though my time studying permaculture & land management. A place in which i can hopefully facilitate someone else to experience something like i did that day.
upon returning i began to research extensively, as a result one of my specialties is in possessing an extensive overview of topics in depth and establishing connections & patterns between them.
Several injuries & aliments provided me with the opportunity to learn to heal myself.
Once sifting thought the inconsistencies and deception in the world of health, the path to a genuinely healthy existence is, in fact, rather straightforward. My approach underscores the significance of integrating the key pillars of ancestral wisdom with modern systems. I posses a clear understanding on restoring the body to balance, the removal of fungal & parasite infections, What real clean fuel for the body is, functional movement patterns, an extensive list of protocols & detox practices but ultimately a conscious understanding of water.
I am a wealth of information and after years of research, learning, and experimentation i wish to dedicate my life to imparting this knowledge to empower others to thrive. My mission is to inspire others to embrace their full potential.

I am a devoted practitioner of the healing arts, deeply connected to the earth and the divine.
My journey back to my soul’s path began in 2016. After spending my early twenties filled with self-doubt and anxiety, I felt like I had no sense of direction in my life. My lifestyle choices had a significant impact on my physical and mental health. I knew something had to change, so I packed my bags and set off on a solo trip to India.
Since then, I have immersed myself in and dedicated my life to a variety of teachings and practices. These include Vinyasa yoga, Yin yoga, Somatic and Embodied Yoga, devotional dance, Womb Healing, Somatic Bodywork, Usui Reiki (Master Level), cacao
facilitation, advanced sound therapy, and mind-body coaching.
By stepping onto this path and allowing my innate wisdom to guide me, I have been taken to many places across the earth to travel, work, and study. I have established a successful business teaching yoga, guiding ceremonies, offering one-on-one transformational bodywork and more as well as running women’s retreats across Europe.
Central to my work is a deep understanding of the soma—the body as a living, feeling, and expressive entity—and the intricate connection between the mind and body. True and lasting change comes from diving into the inner realm, exploring the wisdom of the body, and addressing the root causes of imbalance.
I began to see lasting change when I created a unique blend of modalities I had learnt over the years. By combining the power of somatics, devotional practices, and energy work, I shifted my inner reality and expanded my capacity to hold more.
Through this inner exploration, you begin to understand that we are not separate. By connecting to yourself, you connect to all. This realisation opens the door to profound healing and unity, reminding us of our interconnectedness with the world around us.
My approach within Crystalline is a blend of somatics, coaching, and ceremony, always attuned to the subtle energy body and the needs of each person. I use these modalities to guide you in creating profound shifts, healing, self-awareness, and a reconnection to your innate wisdom.
I believe we are all creations of the divine, with infinite potential waiting to be unlocked. My mission is to guide you to rediscover your true essence and embrace a life of love, alignment, and wholeness. All the answers you seek are already within you. My role is to be your guide, a mirror, holding your hand as you explore the depths of your inner world. This work is a calling from my soul, woven with love and intention. I am passionate about helping others discover that inner harmony reflects outwardly, and I am here to support you on your unique journey.
My own experiences have taught me the profound impact of these healing practices. I’ve learned to connect with my body on a deeper level, embrace self-love and compassion, and attract alignment and abundance into my life. I wake up each day with gratitude and
excitement, thriving holistically through proper nutrition, movement, natural resources, meaningful relationships, and a connection to the divine.
