What is AQUATIC INTELLIGENCE?

Remembering the Wisdom We Were Born From

I want to begin by saying how deeply grateful I am to be sharing the very first Aquatic Intelligence Masterclass online. Every person who shows up — whether live, curious, or quietly listening — encourages me to trust that I am on the right path.

I’ll be honest: this is stretching me. I am far more familiar with holding space underwater, where bodies soften, nervous systems settle, and technology doesn’t interrupt presence. Stepping into the online world asks me to grow my capacity in a new way. And yet, here we are — together.

From a Life in Water to a Life on Land

Aquatic Intelligence marks an important life transition for me, a movement from a life almost entirely devoted to water, into a way of translating water’s wisdom onto land. After hundreds — if not thousands — of hours immersed in water, I came to a quiet but clear realization. The number of people willing to dive into deep pre- and perinatal processes in warm water is small. And the number of people who devote their entire life path to this work is even smaller — perhaps just a handful worldwide.

Even if interest is growing, it’s not growing fast enough. And no — this is not about money.

This is about responsibility. I know I am carrying something powerful. Something that has been moving through me for as long as I can remember. Something I believe has the capacity to help us evolve into new layers of human capacity — especially at a time when resource is becoming essential for navigating change. 2026 is coming fast. It will be big. Are we resourced enough to meet it?

So… What Is Aquatic Intelligence?

I asked myself a simple but important question:

What is Aquatic Intelligence — and how can it support life on land?

Not just personal life, but also our work, our practices, and our leadership.

From this question, the idea of an online journey was born: a live, guided process unfolding every two weeks, inviting participants to remember the wisdom of the water we all came from.

What makes Aquatic Intelligence so powerful is that it does not come from outside of us. It doesn’t ask us to download more information or rely on artificial intelligence. Instead, it reconnects us to an innate intelligence that already lives within our bodies.

I believe there are vast human capacities still unexplored — capacities that can be embodied through softness, spaciousness, pleasure, and inner listening alone.

Capturing the Essence Without Losing the Ocean

At times, this work can feel overwhelming — like standing at the edge of a vast ocean of possibility. And yet, we are both the drop of saline water and the ocean itself.

This is why I have focused on capturing the essence of Aquatic Intelligence in a way that can be transmitted through a continuum of nine live classes, and equally through the space between them.

What excites me deeply is how adaptable and multidimensional this work is. While my roots remain firmly anchored in pre- and perinatal aquatic work, I began asking new questions:

What about psychologists who primarily work on land? What about therapists, leaders, creatives, and women in business? What about those working in marine conservation and leadership roles?

Through conversations with friends, therapists, and colleagues, the Journey began to expand. Many of them have been invited to participate — to explore the what, why, and how of Aquatic Intelligence together.

Not Learning Something New — Remembering Something Old

Aquatic Intelligence is not about acquiring new skills.

It is about remembering.

It is an inner process that allows you to access capacities that help you feel:

• more contained

• more resourced

• more aligned with your own rhythm and tempo

  
  

From this place, your capacity to facilitate change — in your life, relationships, clients, and teams — naturally increases.

If anything, this work is an invitation to consider that:

• less can be more

• softness is powerful

• inner space has a real impact

  
  

The Journey will look different for everyone. Depth varies. Timing varies. But togetherness is held through continuity — supported by shared spaces such as a WhatsApp group and a private online community where questions, insights, and breakthroughs can be shared.

From Online to In-Person

Yes — there will also be an opportunity to experience Aquatic Intelligence in person.

From 10–13 June 2026 in Corfu, Greece, we will gather for an immersive experience that weaves together:

• practices from the online journey

• stand-up paddleboarding

• open-water mermaiding

• water dancing

• meditation at sunset

But before the future, let’s return to the here and now.

A Small Practice: Here & Now

The present moment is where real decisions and actions can take place.

Imagine a simple bucket of water. Bring your awareness to the memory of water. Notice how your breath changes. Feel how your nervous system responds.

Ask yourself gently: Do I feel more resourced? Clearer? More here?

Water is a powerful regulator of the nervous system, both externally and internally. It creates a shared language between strangers, groups, and teams. Sometimes all that is needed is:

• water

• time

• space

From this place, decisions arise differently.

The Invitation

You are invited to join me for Aquatic Intelligence: The Journey — an online experience unfolding every two weeks on Thursdays, beginning January 22nd.

This is:

• an individual journey, held in depth

• a connected and supported online space

• an invitation to share, reflect, and have breakthroughs

• a place to align with your own unique dream and purpose

  
  

As we remember our own Aquatic Intelligence, we also begin weaving future possibilities together. Because we are, quite literally, one water. Together we can change the tide.

Moving forward, synergy, alignment, and resources will matter more than force. Time will become more fluid. And our ability to choose new paths will depend not on how tightly we hold on — but on how resourced we are.

See you on Monday 5th of January 2026 for the Free Masterclass.
