I am now a certified VITA™ Jade Egg Coach, having successfully completed the Jade Egg Specialisation Major within Layla Martin’s VITA™ Coaching framework. This accreditation arms me with advanced, Taoist-rooted techniques and modern holistic-sexuality tools to guide vulva-owners through embodied practices that heighten pleasure, healing, and vitality. My training encompassed the full Sexual Tao system, energy-work modalities, and deep pelvic-floor awareness—blending ancient wisdom with cutting-edge coaching methods. I’m committed to holding a safe, empowering container for your personal transformation, uniting the science and spirituality of sacred sexuality.

Rooted in the profound belief that sexuality is sacred, love is a potent force, and meaningful relationships are essential for a joyful existence, I’ve explored the transformative realm of VITA™ Coaching. This approach blends modern science with ancient wisdom, incorporating holistic tools like breathwork, pleasure practices, and trauma healing to awaken and heal sexuality.

Having successfully completed the Relationship Transformation Major within the VITA™ Coaching program, I now specialize in this area to help couples unlock their full potential. Relationships offer a fertile ground for spiritual growth, personal development, and healing. Through this specialization, I aim to address the widespread lack of quality support for couples. Many partnerships struggle without the tools required for mutual thriving.

Almost universally, we yearn for enduring love and fulfilling intimacy. The deepest desires for authentic connections and lasting sexual fulfillment often clash with fears and obstacles. Through the Relationship Transformation Major, I’ve equipped myself to guide couples through healing from childhood wounds, trauma integration, and the nurturing of profound intimacy.

As an assistant, I was thrilled to be a part of the Tantric Shibari Retreat: The Art of Trust and Surrender. This transformative 4-night retreat invited participants to explore surrender, energy work, and deep trust in life through the ancient art of Tantra and rope magic.

Led by experienced facilitators Marco and Ymke, the retreat provided a sacred space for participants to immerse themselves in practices that deepened their connection with themselves and others. From healing past wounds to expanding sensory experiences, the retreat offered a safe and supportive environment for personal and collective transformation.

Participants became part of an inclusive community that valued diversity and welcomed individuals and couples of all ages, genders, and backgrounds. It was more than just a retreat; it was a heartfelt container for embracing the art of trust and surrender, nurturing profound bonds, and experiencing life-changing connections.

This is a 1-year live program (600+ hours) at Layla Martin’s VITA™ Institute.

The core values of VITA™ Coaching are based on the belief that sexuality is sacred, beautiful, powerful and natural; pure love is the primary force that sustains us, and meaningful relationships are necessary for a joyful life. The VITA™ Method is a transformational process to heal and awaken sexuality. Supported by modern science and empowered by ancient wisdom, we use holistic tools such as breathwork, pleasure practices, trauma healing, meditation, energy work, sounds and movement that can solve even the deepest problems.

The VITA™ Method takes the most effective teachings of modern neurobiology, holistic healing and modern coaching, and blends it with ancient wisdom and teaching. VITA™ stands for “The Vital and Integrated Tantric Approach.”

The deep surrender was a weekend long energetic tantric rope experience. Embodying the sacred connection with your true self.

In this retreat we dived into different ways of connecting and deepening the union and polarity between you and your rope partner.

The tantric practices in this retreat were inspired by the teachers (Marco Jellema and Ymke Linde van Gurp) and experiences in classical and kundalini Tantra and will be based around opening up your energy field heart and root chakra. Opening these areas deepens the experience of meeting someone in your own energy field and not hold a part of you hidden even if you are scared of showing yourself your feelings and emotions.

Through Juli Pohan.

In Juli's words: "Working with a sarong is a gentle, nurturing and calming technique." From stretching the body to shaking it, 'bio-hacking' the nervous system and bringing the body to life, and also, above all, surrender and relaxation. For me it really stands for getting into your body and out of your head. A very interesting training! Can't wait to use this in my bodywork too.

In this one-day workshop, I learned a set of postures that Dinah Rodrigues has developed under the name of hormone yoga. It stimulates the hormone glands, restoring the hormone balance in your body and keeping your hormone production up. I also learned about the essential role of hormones, how they work together, how nutrition can contribute to a healthy hormone balance, and so on.

Through Compass to Connection and House of Healing.

Zen, expression, sensuality, integrity, silence, movement, closeness, setting boundaries and expressing desire were central to this retreat. My intention that week was to let go of physical and/or emotional baggage in order to connect more deeply with myself, the universe and others. Various excercises and coachings were offered such as the Wheel of Consent, emotional bodywork, active meditation and various other therapeutic forms of work.

The year 2021 was all about self-development for me. From February till October, I started an individual trajectory at Compass to Connection. As a coach and bodyworker, it is important for me to keep moving and growing myself, for example by working with my own trauma and pain pieces. I believe that only when I go through this, I will be able to help other people in their process to a deeper level.

I have also participated in a Cocao Temple Ceremony and have been a part of a Naked Woman Circle. Both were about opening the senses. The former on sensual pleasure, and the latter towards self-love and acceptance.

All this contributes to my professional experience.

The focus is on the psychological and social processes that influence communication in audiovisual media and face-to-face. Furthermore, it studies the interactions that take place between people or between people and technology.
