You found it!
This boost weekend is designed by Marinka Lipsius (see below for more information). As author, speaker & trainer on impactful leadership, experienced executive and as a yoga-practioner for years, she knows about the powerful effects of high quality breaks and of yoga techniques that will enhance professional strength and quality.
The weekend is especially designed for those with demanding jobs who need to reload, relax and also want to invest in personal and professional growth. A 2,5 hour flight from Amsterdam/London will bring you to the sunniest region in Europe, Andalucía. Casa Escudero offers you all you can wish for in terms of luxury, wellness facilities, healthy food and hospitality.
Why is this unique?
Experience with your body, learn with your mind, go with your heart.
There are numerous courses you can attend to concerning effectiveness, leadership, personal growth, getting people to come along etc. There are also numerous ways to exercise your body. Marinka was educated at the Vrije School in Amsterdam and learned at very early age that experience not only proceeds conscious learning but also enhances it significantly. In addition to that she learned that the human body and mind are a whole that works together. A notion that goes back to Aristotle and Confucius but is used hardly in the Modern Western world.
In her professional years she used and developed this notions into her leadership, the courses she designed and the way she worked with all kinds of people in all kinds of situations. In the last few years she took time to investigate personal strength, courage and later on the most effective behaviour to actually get in motion and have impact. Her notions were sharpened by this. She published two books about it and is now sharing her experience and knowledge in courses, lectures, consultancy and coaching. In her daily work with her clients she uses both scientific knowledge and insights on the brain, human behaviour and group dynamics as well as interventions that address the subconscious. Her clients discover along the way the richness and effectiveness of an approach that they didn’t know at the beginning. Intrigued as they are, they often ask what reservoir of knowledge and experience she draws upon.
The Boost Weekend is one of the most compact and impactful ways in which body, mind and heart are cooperating to learn as a person and as a professional. The insights are profound. The tools you get are useful and concrete. Explaining is an only partly effective. Joining this weekend and experiencing it is the best gift you can give yourself. To read the experiences of others, please check the testimonials.

About Marinka Lipsius
Marinka is author, speaker & trainer on impactful leadership, she is experienced executive and a yoga practitioner for years. She knows about the challenges of a demanding professional life.
In her work she accompanies organisations and individual executives in their quest for improving effectiveness and impact. She knows by experience that that comes hand in hand with a healthy body and mind. For her there is no real distinction between the conscious and sub-conscious. Behaviour is influenced by both. That is why she uses both angles in her work, as it is the key to actual change and growth.
She practices yoga for almost 20 years now and experienced in person the immense impact it had on her professional and personal live. Yoga added both mental and physical power which enabled her to make impactful professional steps in her career and physically, for example, to climb Mount Kilimanjaro. Considering she was, for years, suffering from constant back pains and too much weight after giving birth, she was deeply influenced: with help of yoga her health and life returned to normal! She is grateful with the opportunity to share this beautiful effect with others.
She developed an accessible, open and down-to-earth style that enables everyone to join in. For the yoga sessions she invites excellent professionals. The design and flow of the weekend is in her hands. As are the moments where insights on impact and strength will be addressed.
