Hi, I’m Heike. Colin and I are the creators of the Da Vinci school. Let me introduce to you who we are and what we want to achieve here.
I studied biotechnology with a PhD in biology in Germany, but I’ve also always been a very creative person. Art exhibitions, dance performances, theatre, and music has just been as important to me as science. In 2014, out of an epiphany, I quit everything and started to travel the world. I enrolled in a yoga teacher training and became a kitesurf instructor for a little while until I decided to work together with Colin Power.
Colin Power (UK) is a trained audio engineer, life-long musician and numbers lover. Sometimes, we like to refer to him as Prof. Power because he is just such a genius brain who mostly knows an answer to everything. He studied geometry, its link to music and engineering, way before me. So, when I met him in 2014 in Goa, I learned a lot about the meaning of mandalas, while we could exchange knowledge about science and art. Out of this, we developed a series of workshops and courses that we started to run seasonally in Goa and soon brought it over to other countries in Asia and Europe as well.
To bring something online takes time. Bit by bit, you will see that more and more courses will be published on this platform. And while you will always be able to learn from anywhere you want and in your own time, we will continue to be available offline also. So check out our events and live session. Our goal is to expand also our teacher team, so we can bring more offline workshops around the world.
