Testimonials

Through the medium of movement, Daniel has supported me to go farther in my physical and mental self development than I ever thought possible.

During these last six months of our working relationship, Daniel has demonstrated a deep commitment to my growth by being a constant stream of support: offering individualized programs, technical feedback, and questions for reflection. However, the most transformative benefit I have gained from our interactions is my own commitment to my future. I am inspired by Daniel’s remarkable tendency to choose a life of meaning, to pursue excellence, and to do it all with a trust in the process. He has imparted these qualities on me through continual mentorship and role modeling, and I carry what I learn from him every day. He has endowed me with a sense of duty for navigating my life with purpose, embodying patience, and valuing openness, hard work, and love.

I am truly proud to call Daniel my teacher, and I can’t wait to learn more.

All of Daniel’s projects are full of enthusiasm, authenticity and attention to detail. Since working closely with him, I am open to many possibilities that beforehand were deemed impossible. He offers an extremely enriching process at every level.
I call that „Deutsche Efficiency“.

What truly makes it special for me though, is his personal touch: he is above all else, relatable, humble, and a truly kind soul.

I approached Daniel because I was experiencing increasing problems with my mobility and joints due to my sedentary work in the office. Through the sessions, I was able to incorporate specific routines into my daily life and learn how to alleviate my discomfort through targeted exercises. My physical well-being improved significantly after just a few sessions, and I started to see initial results.

Spending time with Daniel has always been enjoyable, and I acquired knowledge that I can continue to use effectively in the future to independently recognize and alleviate physical discomfort.

This is by far the easiest testimonial that I have written in my life.
Working with Daniel has transformed my own practice and the way I approach teaching immensely. As a new movement teacher I found huge value in being supported through times of creating something new by someone who has walked this path before.

Daniel is someone who genuinely cares about the people he works with and doesn’t shy away to show vulnerability, which I find is extremely important to share in our world. It made me feel understood, which supported me in pushing through my doubts and fears. He leads by example, which inspired me to put his advice and knowledge into practice.

I recommend working with Daniel from the bottom of my heart!

Highlighting in working with Daniel, I would like to emphasize, for example, the quality of the fantastic, customized training plan tailored to me. With this plan, I can practice independently of the coaching sessions.
During the training sessions, I experience Daniel as very focused and calm. Daniel manages to motivate me superbly with his knowledge and his friendly manner.

Working with him goes beyond mere knowledge transfer of methods for learning the handstand. It has a lasting, transformative effect.

I’m honestly really impressed with Daniel’s work.

Throughout continuous assessments Daniel provides me with a routine I know I can trust to unlock more strength, mobility and body-control every single time I show up; it’s fascinating to see what my body is capable of under Daniel’s guidance, so I do highly recommend him as a personal trainer!

I’m Ana Salcido, I’m a contemporary dancer and my experience training with Daniel is truly amazing; in our first session after 10min I already could see a lot of improvement just by focusing in small details that usually teachers don’t give to us.

His work is based on the necessities of each person and that helps to achieve our personal goals.

Without personal training with Daniel, I would still be complaining about my back pain every day. We've been training together for about 6 months, and I haven't felt this strong and balanced in a long time. This transformation is not only reflected in my physical well-being but also mentally. During this time, I've learned a lot about my body and understood its intricacies.

Each training session is tailored to my needs as a young mother, taking into account my menstrual cycle. With a lot of joy, positivity, and professionalism, Daniel has helped me achieve a better sense of my body and provided me with a treasure trove of great memories and exercises.

The Summer Camp exceeded all of my expectations. I arrived with the mere assumption that I am going to "like" it and after these days I left with the conviction that I will participate again.

Daniel made the days flew by, filled with activities that widened my knowledge about mind & body. The dynamic of the group was amazing and everyone contributed their part to make every single one feel welcomed, included and at easy.

Freed from the knowledge of and adherence to exact time we relaxed and quickly bonded together as a group.

Challenging my body and mind, I left the Summer Camp with new insights and overall joy.

The many impressions from the Summer Camp participants and Daniel gave me a lot o inspiration for my everyday life.

It gave me the perfect conditions to challenge myself physically and mentally on the one hand, but also to slow down from everyday life on the other hand.

As a participant in two of Daniel's Summer Camps and one Winter Camp, I can say that the opportunity to learn with Daniel as an experienced trainer and mentor has been incredibly rewarding.


I have gained skills I never thought possible and I now feel much more confident and ready to take on new challenges. Daniel is unique in his approach to learning and personal development. I appreciate his ability to create a supportive and positive environment that allows participants to push their limits and reach their potential.

I would recommend anyone looking for an inspiring and memorable experience to work with him.

Daniel's Summer Camp was a great inspiration for me. The guided discussions and the self-reflection sessions encouraged me to think about some things differently. The trips together and sports sessions provided a good balance. A successful mix of cognitive and physical stress.

Although I didn't know any of the other participants before, I said goodbye to good friends at the end. Thank you for the inspiration!

The Summer Camp provides a wonderful break from everyday life. The mix of cognitive and athletic exercises was a great experience.

Especially the encouraging discussions with the other participants was something I enjoyed very much. I am looking forward to take part in the camp in the upcoming year.

If you want to escape from everyday life and want to learn something about yourself, you should take part in Daniel's Summer Camp. This includes five days of not knowing what time it is. It creates an incredible feeling of freedom. With this freedom and alongside the intense discussion rounds and the team games, a profound group cohesion was created.

The Summer Camp was a completely new experience for me. Even though I didn't know what to expect, the camp more than exceeded my expectations.

Daniel has delivered a masterpiece organizationally and as a "leading figure", which is why I am looking forward to being part of this extraordinary experience again in the next year.

At the beginning, I was quite shy and reserved, but as the week went on, one could integrate

oneself better and better. It's fascinating to see how well a community of individuals functions. I've met very funny and intelligent people. The human body is amazing, and one must first become aware of what's possible. So, in everyday life, there's so much more that can be achieved if one wants to.


A major stress point for me is/was my impatience (whether it's with eating, breathing, or hiking), but the week has once again shown that it's actually completely unnecessary.

The Winter Camp was extremely well organized, with delicious food, lots of joy, and plenty of challenges.

The Winter Camp was a week out of the daily grind,

into the cold,
looking inward and outward, together with great people, close to nature, testing your limits,
setting your own goals, reflecting on yourself,
in a beautiful place,
with great food,
creating awareness through breathing,
fellow human beings and the cold.

As I am here, lying down in the seminar room, writing this, I can only feel gratefulness and joy for this amazing week. It is fair to say that this has been one of the coolest experiences in my short life.

I came to the Camp a bit uncertain and afraid, but I leave happy and completely satisfied. Endlich Zeit!

Now it's time to carry on with the fire sparked during these days. Love melts the ice!

The Winter Camp week was fulfillment and joy for me. Taking care of others and cooking completely fulfills me and gives me a feeling that I haven't been able to generate with other things. The week repeatedly showed me what is important to me and what I need to be myself: people who share similar values, friends, good food, being outdoors, gaining experiences, and pushing my limits.

The lightness and energy I experienced this week are the aspects of myself I am currently seeking when I am in my everyday routine. My current goal is to reproduce this energy or create the circumstances to have this energy and lightness daily.

The week has helped me get one step closer to this goal.

I started the Winter Camp week with an open mind and without any specific expectations, but with the intention to take away as much as possible. In this respect, the Camp fulfilled all expectations.

There was a lot of new and positive input. The planning of the individual days was great and also the entire group made it a very positive experience from which I take a lot of energy and positive experiences.


The "Calm Mornings" and the reduced media time really did me good and helped to start the days calm and stress-free. Highlights for me were definitely the hike up the Pfänder, the ice bath with the group and the last full day.

Thank you for this amazing week! I am really grateful that I was able to participate and get to know you.

This Winter Camp week helped me a lot to get my stress under control. It showed me differentways to reduce stress. I was able to think a lot and didn't let myself be distracted by everything (cell phone, TV, etc.) as I usually do in everyday life.
The week also showed me what is possible when you have the right mindset. 


It was very nice to be surrounded by people who have a goal. The location, the activities and the people made it unforgettable for me.

I am grateful for everything I was able to experience during this week.

That was a cool and chill event today. The introduction was totally relaxed. The workshop was an integral event and gives you a practical and transferable guide for your own training.
The meditation at the end completed the workshop so pleasantly. Really nice idea!


Even though I had already been on my hands here and there, I was missing all the (theoretical) basics as already mentioned. A specific warm-up as well as supposedly "simple" exercises were skipped consequently until now. In any case, you have sustainably conveyed that these parts also belong to it and contribute to the progress.



I found it totally pleasant that you picked up each of us where he/she was at (progress wise). And that you didn't use the workshop as your own stage to present what you have up your sleeve. Rather, you acted on a level with us, providing very helpful feedback and assistance.



Thanks a lot for your input. Somehow this wasn't necessarily a pure handstand workshop at all. I found that you indirectly conveyed quite a lot of interpersonal skills in a nice way and additionally gave little food for thought. That was also inspiring and valuable for me.

I really got a lot out of the day today, I thought it was great that it was not just a pure handstand

workshop, just the little thought-provoking impulses in between, such as the "take time and consciously do nothing after a learning session" really great.
I'm now going into the Christmas holidays with a lot of new thoughts and ways of doing things, and I've already really got a lot of desire to train! 


YOU are also a totally great person! Keep up the good work and stay as open, warm and positive as you are today. 


I haven't been to many workshops yet, this was only my second one today. 


Apart from the fact that one is interested in a topic and gets new impulses, I also find it a wonderful feeling to get in touch with other, at first "strange" people, whom one then warmly hugs at the end of the workshop and simply had a great time together! You are key in this and hold the space for such encounters.


Thank you thank you for such a beautiful workshop, I look forward to having the chance to be there again!

I attended Daniel's handstand workshop and can only recommend it. Daniel guides with playfulness and mindfulness, demonstrating all the important warm-up exercises, which muscle groups are particularly important for stability, and leads you step by step towards balancing on your hands.

He also always keeps an eye on ensuring you don't get injured, helps you overcome the fear of tumbling over, encourages a fun approach to practice, and not to be discouraged when things don't work out.

Thank you for your lovely demeanor and excellent teaching, dear Daniel!

Due to my previous injury my handstand training was usually cut short due to wrist pain.

Daniel helped me adjust my hand positioning and increase my wrist mobility and strength to allow for intense and pain free sessions. Together with the other cues and progressions I'm now able to take my training to the next level.

We really enjoyed the activities with Daniel. It was a refreshing team-building session with fun, a sporty touch, and skill, which we found to be very diverse and enriching for the body and mind.

The Coaches Summit was a great event to connect with other like minded people that follow a similar path.


Talking to other coaches and sharing experiences helped tremendously to get more clarity and structure for my coming projects.

My biggest added value was getting to know very inspiring people,
who all share a passion and with whom one could exchange very well about it.


As a complete newcomer in coaching, I was able to get deep insights into the practices of others. Besides workshops around coaching and movement, there was very good food, valuable conversations, but also time to retreat and reflect.
 All in all, I can say that this time will stay in my memory for a long time and that this Summit is
 a great chance to bring yourself and your coaching to a new level.


At the end of the day, it's all about community and that's exactly what you notice in the way people interact with each other there. I am glad to have been there and to have met every single person.

The Coaches Summit was a great coming together of people who share similar goals. The exchange was open and diverse. Everyone shared their past experiences and learned from those of others.

That's what it's all about in the end: sharing and giving something from yourself, but also learning and taking something from others.

Community, co-working within the workshops and sharing a common direction are what made this Summit unique.

Thank you Daniel for the wonderful organization and I'm already planning to join next year.

The Coaches Summit 2022 was a wonderful and insightful experience in a beautiful Allgäu mountains atmosphere. I found the workshops and working methods of the participating coaches very interesting, to exchange ideas together, to learn and simply to have a good time. The organization was top and Daniel's enthusiasm contagious.

A clear recommendation for every practicing coach and all those who would like to become one.
