Elena Ritmeisters

After school, I decided to be a commercial clerk. Soon after that however, I realized that I wanted to do work that is meaningful to me on another level. This is why I started training to become a Shiatsu therapist. The following four years I worked part-time in an office and completed my Shiatsu education. I got my diploma in 2012 and have had my own practice since then.

I like to spend my time off with my family and friends, either out in nature, at a concert or out dancing. For my own inner balance I practice Yoga and Qi Gong.
