"Firewalking, why!?" Many have asked me that same question over the years. When I tell people about the history of firewalking they start to get intrigued and usually want to know more. "And you don't get burned?" is often one of the very first enquiries. "Well, most of the time you don't," is my honest reply, "but that is really not the point in firewalking". Then what is?

In the early 90's I studied Japanese Language and Culture at the University of Leiden, The Netherlands, majoring in Buddhism and seized the opportunity to walk on fire in Leiden during the first ever complete Saito Goma (big fire ritual) outside of Japan with the Buddhist monks of the Daigoji Sanboin of Kyoto (1993). A year later I participated in a Saito Goma in Japan with the Shugenja (mountain ascetics of the Shugendo tradition) associated with the Okubo temple (Okuboji) on the island of Shikoku.
Those early experiences form the base on which the subsequent 15 years of firewalking have been build.

Besides firewalking, a few other extremely transformative processes can be especially tailored into workshops that fit seamlessly into events of personal empowerment and spiritual growth.
The arrow breaking and steel rebar bending are both highly effective tools that allow you to move beyond inner and outer obstacles toward your goals and desires. They are also very powerful in creating group synergy, group support and in achieving group objectives.

Firewalking, "The Secret" |
The Firewalk teaches us to be fully in the present, to allow all our emotions and feelings to be the fuel behind our focussed intent and action so that we truly can create miraculous results in our lifes.
Firewalking is the most powerful metaphor for life that is available today, and learning to transform our fear and limiting beliefs into joy, love and effective action is but one of its many gifts.
If you're looking for a way to learn how to apply the principles of "the law of atraction", if you're willing to dive into your being and transform all those limiting beliefs that are holding you back to live the life you're yearning to live, and if you have the courage to dream and live life outside of the box, check the calendar of events and join one of the public Firewalking workshops!
