WHAT WE DISCUSS

  • How to embrace the moment and find more peace and joy even when life is hard, and much more!

ABOUT OUR GUEST

For over three decades, Derek has dedicated his life to the study of physical culture and philosophy. This pursuit has led him all over the world including time living in China and South East Asia, studying with traditional masters of martial, movement and healing arts.

Derek always sought to extract the essence of the traditions while connecting the common elements. Despite the uniqueness of each art and human form, there is a commonality to being in a body and so themes emerge. He has made it his life's work, to investigate and understand these themes and share them with others in a paradigm of traditional wisdom through embodied practice.
