André is a professional Performance and Natural Movement coach, working between his studio in Cape Town and the healing beauty of Hermanus. His passion, grace and aptitude have been inherited and nurtured from birth, his father having been a professional soccer player for both Chelsea and the SA national team, and his mother having been a prima ballerina.
André combines knowledge and expertise in the fields of boxing, Tai Chi Chuan and Natural Movement. He teaches people how to move with integrity, and to place trust in their bodies whilst under intense pressure. As epitomised by the grace of wild animals, fluid rhythmic movement from the spine is a hallmark of his intuitive approach. Structured training concentrates on the nervous system, on how to neutralise excess nervous energy, stay calm and perform under pressure. By finding the optimum, natural way to move, the body becomes honed and the mind aligned.
Whether a professional athlete or simply a student of the method, practitioners learn how to meet any kind of stress or urgency in life, and to respond effectively and creatively to whatever finds them on their path. Life becomes a passionate adventure, to be met with an open heart and mind, in a manner that is poised and fundamentally harmonious with their nature.
