About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Helping people be happier and healthier by discovering easier and more functional ways of moving.

ABOUT ME

Inner growth, both spiritually and philosophically, is what drives me forward. I'm a dancer and body worker originally from Israel. I led a nomadic lifestyle for years, travelling around the world and meeting lots of amazing people. This recently changed; nowadays I live in Brussels with my beautiful girlfriend Manou, and I practice Ilan Lev Movement therapy, helping people to get in touch with their body to heal their injuries.

As a dancer, I look for that specific moment of letting go, surrendering fully to the movement, being an empty vessel. I give in to the direction of the movement and let go of my habits to allow the movement to teach me new things about myself.

PHILOSOPHY

I love people, love to travel, love to learn new things from unexpected directions, love experiencing culture...
I have a great curiosity and zest for life. Always happy to experience new things. I'm aiming to expand my consciousness to be able to contain more of the good in the world ...

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

There's something about the generosity of offering someone your couch or spare room that I don't find anywhere else. Couchsurfing, to me, is a philosophy. It is a way of getting to know all sorts of people, and choosing to spend time together, learning from one another.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Had the luck to meet the most beautiful people all around Europe via surfing and I LOVE IT!! :) Whenever I have the chance to host, I love showing people around Brussels, this crazy beautiful messy city.

Interests

Love to dance (I'm a dancer)
I teach Contact Improvisation and give ILM treatments.
and I love to see people smile...

More so, I love to get to know people, see how they tick... understand how they perceive life - and trough that reflect on myself ;)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I worked on a farm with goats (milking them and making cheese) , have been picking avocados, I crossed Israel walking for three weeks, and much more ....

Teach, Learn, Share

My inner quest of the self lead me to explore the now, in the now I find myself exposed and free…
