PRIVATE COACHING
Private coaching
Sometimes you need training wheels before you can cycle like a pro.
Sometimes you need someone to hold your hand to figure skate and allow them to point you in the right direction.
Sometimes you need a personal coach to teach you a tricky subject in a way that only you understand. (Are we all thinking about maths, too?)
None of this makes you any less competent, smart or talented. In fact, if anything you and your mind are hyper aware of the way you see the world and how it in turn works for (and with) you.
This is where Private Coaching comes into the picture.
Especially for you
Sessions you choose from will have weaved in practices tailor-made to suit your needs. We will work closely on the areas that concern you and slowly construct a practice that not only works best for you but is also slowly becoming more and more you.
Multidisciplinary approach
You wish to combine two specific techniques that work best for your body. Or, you think you want to expand your horizons in just one disciplinary practice. Or you are going through cycles of interest and energy. You got it.
There won't be a shopping list
All you need to bring is your body and mind (just the way it is) every time you come on board. No extra equipment, fancy tools and accessories needed. Unless that’s something that you would like to integrate during our sessions.
I love Vanessa's coaching style! I have a background in dancing and I reached out to Vanessa to regain my flexibility after a long break. She is incredibly competent and knows exactly how to help you achieve your goals, adapting her classes to your specific needs. I now have a stretching routine I can easily integrate into my day-to-day training. If you're a dancer looking for a great coach, I highly recommend Vanessa! - Arianna M., Ethics research scientist
Vanessa has a vast of experience and knowledge which I value very much. Her guidance and help during an injury was crucial for me and now latest she has taught me about healing and finding harmony in body and mind.
I can truly recommend Vanessa to anyone who wants evidenced- and science based movements in your life for a sustainable wellbeing and improved health. Vanessa’s warm and kind personality makes anyone feel comfortable and safe. - Maria T., Medical Interior Designer and Jungian coach
Vanessa will always start and end the class with a smile. She also has incredible knowledge and experience on the physical body and its relation to the mind.
Our sessions leave me with a sense of peace and achievement.
No session is the same, and I have seen significant improvement on my form as we work on stretching and strengthening every single joint and muscle. I cannot recommend her enough! - Margaux L., Fashion Designer
Knock, knock, is this you?
You don’t like too many people.
You don’t like people at all.
You can’t work around others’ speed.
You fear you don’t have enough speed and stamina and will take many breaks.
You can’t stop thinking about what others might be thinking.
You want to work on the way you think and feel about certain things, but you can’t mix working on these issues and working on your body, simultaneously.
You understand things better when you are directly spoken to.
You have issues you’d want my help with but can’t do it in front of everyone, obviously.
Your understanding of day and night is quite different from what is “socially acceptable”. Hence you need to work this around your schedule.
You want to take it slow. Or nay, you want it to go up a notch, or many. Why not?
Welcome, I've got your back!
