Meet The Team
Anatomy Trains Structural Integrator - Yogi
Through his practice of yoga, Ben has found many treatments to be extremely beneficial towards creating an inner dialogue with our body system. The two main methods that he is certified in, practices, explores and continually studies are; Myofascial Structural Integration, under the Anatomy Trains system by Thomas Myers and Chi Nei Tsang abdominal therapy created by Mantak Chia from Chang Mai, Thailand.¨
"It is through these techniques, that my hands become my eyes and ears, allowing me to feel and see into the connective tissue and ultimately creating balance and equal gravity within the body system. In creating this state of natural harmony we can set the right conditions for fluid movement, breath, emotions, and thoughts."
Ben has a CH/UK dual nationality and is fluent in English. German and Swiss German.
He is certified structural integrator from the Anatomy Trains school in Maine, USA, and studied with Thomas Myers, Kelly Chadwick, Lou Benson, Meredith Kirchner, Kirsten Schumaker, Lauren Christmen and Yuron Gal Carmel.
Always seeking to enhance his knowledge of human anatomy, Ben regularly attends live fascial dissections with Thomas Myers and Todd Garcia. He also partakes in the University of Padova's "Winter School of Fascial Anatomy" hosted by Carla Stecco, MD, professor of human anatomy in the department of neuroscience at the University of Padova, Italy.
Ben is a member of the International Association of Structural Integrators - IASI and a Yoga Alliance E-RYT 500.
Ferdinand Delafosse
Functional Mover - Personal Trainer - Yogi
Ferdinand jumped into movement disciplines early on—martial arts at 6, gymnastics at 8, yoga at 11, and circus training at 14. He built a diverse movement vocabulary by diving into a mix of practices. After a decade as an actor and circus performer, he immersed himself in everything from dance and qigong to juggling, acrobatics, aerial work, yoga, silat, and meditation.
Over time and a few injuries later, his passion shifted toward uncovering the body's infinite potential for movement and its incredible connection to self-healing. He realized that external movement is a reflection of our inner landscape. This breakthrough came when he landed on Koh Phangan eight years ago—and he never really left. Ferdinand has honed his skills in various styles of yoga—alignment yoga (200-hour YTT at Luna Alignment Yoga), Ashtanga Vinyasa Mysore style (Jangalika House of Yoga), restorative yoga, nidra, hands-on adjustments, pranayama, and yin yoga. He’s co-led yin trainings and taught at numerous retreats and teacher trainings, focusing primarily on anatomy.
Now, he’s all about one-on-one yoga sessions and strength/movement training, taking a holistic approach that weaves in classic gym work, biomechanics, G.O.A.T.A (Greatest of All Time Athletes), knees-over-toes methods, play fighting, animal flow, and gymnastics. He’s riveted by primal, functional movements—climbing, running, walking, swimming, carrying, and getting back to the basics of how humans moved before all the modern distractions.
Recently, he’s stripped his practice down, focusing on stillness and simplification to tap into deeper insights. Using visualization, breathwork, and meditation, he works on an energetic level, mapping out the mind to transcend it.
Artur Scheunert
Water / Somatic Therapist - Yogi
Art's passionate teaching style embraces a wide spectrum of practices—from deep, creative yoga asana sequences to grounded trauma-releasing techniques and therapies. He invites students to engage in meaningful conversations with their bodies, encouraging them to move beyond mechanical movements and tap into their natural rhythms.
Whether you're a beginner or more experienced, Art tailors each practice to suit you personally, ensuring that everyone feels included and valued. He shares his journey and teachings internationally, leading classes, workshops, and intensive trainings that focus on integrative healing.
For Art, this work is deeply personal, as he leads students on a transformative journey of self-understanding, self-healing, and self-empowerment. He often reminds his students that if they don’t fill themselves with the truth of who they are, the world will fill them with everything else.
