Body wisdom

At first glance, the workshops may seem like they focus on the mind. But the real work happens through physical experience. Chen believes body-based exercises are crucial because the body often reveals what the mind tries to hide.

"Our brains learn how to deceive," she explained.

"But the body doesn't lie. By transforming subconscious patterns into tangible images and movements, people can see what's happening inside them much more clearly."

Chen herself experienced a profound shift through her time on stage. In her late 20s, she began working with Galli and slowly rebuilt her sense of self — a journey that ultimately inspired her to become a trainer.
