Andy, at the most basic level, works with bodies. In the present moment. Inviting them to participate in a new experience that may transcend into the spiritual.
His modalities include conscious and consensual sadomasochism, esoteric eroticism, Japanese rope bondage, European theatre studies, medical massage therapy, and neuro-somatic teamwork, each representing an important period of their life.
But most importantly, Andy believes in dedication to ‘the way’. The way of being. In Japanese, it is dō. Over the years, he has studied sado, the way of tea; kado, the way of flowers; and aikido, the way of directing energy while in motio. It’s the same way walked in the many Eastern mystery schools. But don’t worry, my dear unknown friend, it’s fundamentally ritual and practical, and you probably won’t notice unless you want to.
Andy left his ordinary career about ten years ago to walk a simpler life. Now he travels based on an agenda curated by a handful of lovely retreat organisers around the world and a demanding make-believe family in the Japanese countryside.
