Jakob Finkeldei: “The body understands more than the mind can comprehend.”

: Thinking Out Loud – with Jakob Finkeldai
About the Person
Jakob Finkeldei
Jakob Finkeldei, 39, is a sports scientist, CANTIENICA® instructor, and gym owner in Cologne. After completing his studies, he was introduced to the CANTIENICA® method by his mother-in-law, who is a midwife. “After my first session, I felt something that still drives me today: an all-encompassing sense of lightness and an overall positive body awareness.”
This experience became the starting point. Jakob began to delve deeply into the CANTIENICA® method and continues to experience the training in new ways: profound, holistic, and—logical. Jakob is particularly fascinated by the connection between body, mind, and mental attitude—a form of bodywork that uplifts and brings inner order: perception becomes more precise, tension can be intelligently regulated, and movement becomes joyful and clear.
His focus is on live coaching and direct dialogue with the body. Jakob guides people on a journey through their own bodies—with the goal of getting to know themselves better, trusting themselves more, and treating themselves with greater kindness.
