About the Teacher
Why study with them?
Carina was born in Amsterdam in the early 80s, and despite having travelled (a lot!) and lived abroad, Amsterdam has always remained her base.
She started Skinsideout eight years ago as a way to combine the many different therapies that she was qualified in (and interested in). The name says it all! For her, beauty goes beyond skin-deep. It’s about who we are on the inside, not just on the outside. It’s about the depth that makes beautiful as human beings, which goes way beyond what we see in the mirror.
Having survived various traumatic experiences in her life, the body in its entirety became a very interesting focus for Carina. She started as a massage and beauty therapist over 20 years ago, which soon led her to a more holistic view of the body and its capacity to heal from the inside out. Since then, She has trained as a Reiki master and Breathwork Coach, and through these modalities have witnessed the depth of healing which is possible for us all. By working through layers of trauma, she has seen – both first-hand and through her clients – that it is possible to get back to our truest selves and live in our highest potential.
Carina is passionate about people, about her work, and about the human capacity to heal.
