👤 FOR THE HOST:
Kristiyan Yordanov has over 15 years of experience in personal development and 8 years of practice with physical, psycho-emotional, and meditative methods.
He learned from teachers of different traditions, alchemists, and from „the book of life“.
Practises and teaches Tai Chi, Qigong and Taoist internal practices. Considers fascial manoeuvres to be a very good „entry point“ to deeper practices, due to their power to improve sensitivity and process blockages.
He is simultaneously a trainer and a manager in the IT industry.
The method of operation is a combination of the methods of Master Milena Maat, Oleg Cherne, Laos Valeri Ivanov, Human Garage.
“For me, participating in the seminar had a rapid effect in relaxing my shoulders, and not only that, but also in starting a process of opening up and clearing out deeper things. At first glance, the movements/exercises seemed quite light and elementary, given that we are used to (taught) that in order to have results, it only comes through pushing ourselves and making Herculean efforts. Therefore, a significant effect was not expected, but this approach actually has good potential. Lightly, with effort and without force. It helps us learn to be mindful and kind to ourselves. Thank you!“

“Hello, for me the seminar was very useful as I have been looking for this type of classes in Sofia for a long time and I am glad that you have paved the way for this knowledge (otherwise I have watched videos by The Workout Witch). I would attend a seminar again.”

“Thank you once again for the well-presented information in the seminar. It was in an understandable language and illustrated with sufficient exercises, so that the execution and sensations became clear. For me, it was a new perspective on fascia in terms of its psycho-emotional connection and influences.
Everything was very useful, presented in a human way, and I will gladly attend the next seminar.”

“The course on fascial manoeuvres was something new, interesting and magical for me. I learned an incredible amount about my body – both in theory and in practice. I felt comfortable and pleasant at the centre. Thank you for sharing and for your professionalism!”

“Thank you for the seminar, for the wonderful practices, and for the connection. For the music, for the silence, and for the space to hear ourselves and each other.
I came with the intention of feeding my mind, but it turned out my search was for inner peace and tranquility.
This is the first time I've encountered the fascial manipulation method, and I'm once again convinced of how wise and sensitive our bodies are, something we rarely consider. And it's enough to do something small, but the right thing, to release old traumas or blocked emotions. I'm glad I discovered for myself that fascial manipulation is a wonderful method in this regard.”

„My seminar was very useful. With the information and guidance it provided, I was able to be more present in my body and feel how the energies were moving within it. Even though I didn't have a palpable problem or stiffness in a specific area, overall I felt more relaxed and free in my body afterwards, and also more grounded and filled with joy. My son was also very relaxed and even fell asleep on the mat in the foetal position.”

Christian Yordanov
Founder of Fascia Academy - fascia.bg For over 10 years, I've been looking after my body, emotions, and consciousness through somatic and fascial practices. At the age of 20, I started experiencing a lot of body pain, which pushed me to seek self-healing methods. I am not a medical professional or a therapist, but I have a daily desk job as an engineering manager for IT teams. I combine Western and Eastern methods for self-healing and development. I practiced, studied, and searched for years. Western fascial science came later, 2 years ago, and suddenly everything I felt in my body was explained. Qigong and modern anatomy were saying the same thing in different words. During the same period, I had years of pain in my right foot. When walking. When standing. Constantly. Massages helped temporarily, but the pain returned. When I seriously started with fascial manoeuvres, after 4-6 weeks the pain disappeared completely. Later I understood it was called plantar fasciitis. I also understood why it happened psychosomatically - a reluctance to go in the direction I was pushing myself to go was stored in my body. The body knew before I realised it. Since then, I have been working with people on the same principle. I combine the scientific understanding of fascia with the deep bodily presence from years of Qigong. The method is a synthesis of the approaches of Master Milena Maat, Oleg Cherne, Laoshi Valeri Ivanov, and Human Garage. In one year, nearly 1000 people have gone through my events. Even experienced physiotherapists find new perspectives in my approach. The body knows the way. We simply remove the obstacles.
