About this Retreat
Your Guides
Alexander Katerinko (Alex) is a certified Shaolin qigong and (RYT 500) instructor, and sound therapist with over 10 years of experience. He is the founder of Meditation Hub Studio in Cyprus and the creator of the Synergia Method — a holistic system that integrates breath, movement, and sound for deep transformation and inner alignment.
Story:
For most of his conscious life Alex worked in a hazardous environment at a major international oil company, rapidly climbing the career ladder. However, in 2016 he experienced a transformation, after which he decided to leave the career as a top manager and dedicate himself to spiritual growth.
Path to Self: Initially, Alex attempted self-development in several areas at once: cooking, enology, Latin dances, learning foreign languages, music, freediving, yoga, qigong.
Gradually, practicing qigong and yoga became a part of his new life, and then he decided to travel the world to study various Eastern practices
Integration of Old Oriental Traditions:
Over time, it became clear to Alex that despite many contradictions, all ancient Eastern philosophical teachings and physical practices have many common principles. As a result of the unification of such principles, the Synergy was born. An important element of this system is the principle of reverse biological feedback, or somopsychics – where through certain physical practices we affect our psyche, allowing us to quickly relieve stress, achieve harmony, and increase the energy level of the body.
My mission:
To travel, spread knowledge, help people!
Invitation to Transformation:
I invite everyone to join me in exciting transformational journeys to various corners of our amazing Planet. Let's open the doors to a new state of happiness and harmony together!
