Retreat adventures for gay bi trans queer men

Welcome

Welcome! I’m Tom, a Berlin based Yoga, Meditation and Breathwork teacher.

I run adventurous retreats for Gay Bi Trans Queer Men around Europe. Over the past 10 years we’ve been to Tuscany, Brandenburg, Portugal, Sweden, France and Cornwall.

100s of GBTQ men from around the world have joined this retreat community. These retreats are a sacred pause from daily life, where we connect to nature, our bodies, through yoga and meditation and much more. These are fun, playful, adventurous experiences for heart, body and spirit.

You can practice with me online by subscribing to Vimeo On Demand and get access to over 250 full length classes, or try some free classes on YouTube.

In 2014 I decided to leave my career making TV programmes for the BBC, train to be a yoga teacher and move to Berlin. Life has never been the same since! I love my life and my work. I'm immensely grateful to share these practices with you, and for all the amazing places I get to visit, and the truly remarkable people I meet along the way.

When I first moved to Berlin I founded a yoga community for Gay Bi Trans Queer Men. Over the years, hundreds of men came to practice with us, I've hosted many men's retreats around Europe, and this work remains a great passion of mine. There is powerful and necessary healing that occurs when men come together to support each other in growth and transformation.

I'm incredibly proud of this community and everything we have been through together. The joy, the laughter, the friendships, the sweat and the tears, and for everyone who walked in to class.​

After 17 years of practice and 10 years of teaching I still feel like a beginner sometimes. We never stop learning, never stop growing, it's a lifelong journey! These practices bring a passion and curiosity to life. They awaken our spirit, and open our heart, it's an honour to walk this path, and to share these practices with you!

For now I am focusing on retreats and events. Thank you for an amazing 10 years of weekly classes in Berlin!
