About my person
My name is Matthias Schmidt, born in 1959, married, father of one daughter and grandfather of two grandchildren.
I completed my studies (master in physics and M.D. Ph.D. in medicine) at the Goethe university in Frankfurt am Main. I then worked for 16 years, until 2001, for Fresenius, a company in the health care sector. For a short time thereafter, I worked as a business coach and consultant.
I started to accompany people on their personal journeys in 2003, initially primarily through energy work, family constellation work and coaching.
I supplemented these methods with Ashtanga Vinyasa Yoga in 2010. For details concerning my yoga path to date, please click here.
My slogan:
Life is movement (in German: Das Leben ist Bewegung).
A special thanks to all my teachers, to my co-students and to all those, who have allowed me to accompany their personal journeys. My special gratitude goes out to my family, for their love and their support.
