If we're just meeting, hi there!

I'm an Australian lawyer, actor and karate black belt sharing battle-tested Zen Confidence: building physical vitality through Eastern internal arts, using that embodied foundation to cultivate inner peace, then channeling that calm into self-confidence and authentic expression.

The pathway: strong body → calm mind → courageous expression.

Here we practice Vitality Qigong and Chen Taiji to build a vital, relaxed body - the foundation most meditation teachers ignore but Eastern masters never did. Then we apply Tao-inspired wisdom to direct that energy intentionally. The result: quiet confidence that's felt in your posture, breath, and presence - not just your thoughts.

Together we build quiet, embodied self-confidence: strong energetic boundaries, clear Spirit, honest expression in real conversations, and a body that can actually hold our power - so that our energy, words and actions start to match the strength that's always been inside us.

Grateful for your company on this path.
