About us

Mind Body Academy was founded by Mirzet Honsic, a behavioral scientist with a passion for people's health, wellbeing and personal development. For many years he has inspired and guided people through coaching, teaching and workshops with the goal of creating lasting change that endures over time.

Beyond his academic background, Mirzet has dedicated more than two decades to studying traditional martial arts. His journeys to Japan and China became part of a lifelong journey of learning, where encounters with different ancient traditions sparked his interest in the inner and outer development of the human being.

Under the guidance of distinguished masters, he deepened his knowledge in martial arts, manual therapy, Taoist philosophy and Sufi tradition. There grew the insight that came to shape all his work: that mind and body cannot be separated. When we strengthen one, the other is strengthened as well.

That insight became the foundation of Mind Body Academy – a place where modern science meets ancient wisdom. Here, knowledge and experiences from different traditions and disciplines come together with a shared purpose: to support human wellbeing in both body and soul.

With us, you will find everything you need to grow as a person. We offer life coaching, personal training, manual therapy and workshops – both online and on site, locally as well as internationally.

No matter where you are on your journey, we are here to support you every step of the way.

Being listened to without judgment creates safety and trust. We hold a present space where your thoughts, feelings and needs are given room.
