Jan Buis
About the Teacher
Why study with them?
Jan Buis is a breathwork, meditation, and inner work facilitator based in the Algarve, Portugal. He supports this retreat through guided reflection, breath-based practice, emotional awareness, and group facilitation.
His work is grounded in direct experience, careful listening, and a practical understanding of human behaviour and inner patterns. With a background in group facilitation, social work, music, sound, and breathwork, Jan brings a calm, grounded, and supportive presence to the retreat space.
During the retreat, Jan helps participants slow down, reconnect with the breath, observe emotional and mental patterns, and develop greater clarity through simple experiential practices. His sessions are not performance-based; they are designed to create space for awareness, reflection, and inner steadiness.
Jan’s contribution complements the classical yoga teaching of Yoga Chaitanya by bringing a Western approach to breathwork, meditation, emotional observation, and personal integration. Together with Sukhvinder Singh Chaitanya, he helps create a retreat environment where yoga, meditation, breath, silence, and reflection support a deeper connection with the body, mind, and inner life.
