October 2014: "Namaste Kees, It was a wonderful meeting and learning from you. Bruce says it was also a pleasure watching you and seeing how your techniques and spirit make such a difference. I was in quite a lovely energy space when I left. I found myself smiling as I used to do years ago when I left yoga classes with my wonderful teacher who left for another life adventure when cancer overtook his body. We both very much look forward to the next time we meet again. Stay safe always,
Shanti, Mireille and Bruce"

November 2004: Connie booked the massage session well ahead by e-mail. When reading the client testimonials on this web site she felt: "I gotta have this masseur".
After an hour of the regular session in the hotel room her husband was invited in to help give a 4-hands session. Later on Connie wrote: "My / Our massage was a moment to remember - an experience. Something that's yearned - but rarely achieved. Thanks for the altering touch - it enhanced all and will always be an everlasting mind/body experience. Happy Holidays. Connie, Detroit, MI. - Everyone should experience !!!."
June 2005. Aljana from Slovenia came especially here to Amsterdam for a number of massage sessions. "I would like to thank you that I had a opportunity to receive your massage technique and philosophy. It was really a wonderful experience :-). By listening the CD you gave to me I exactly remember the atmosphere at your house. The beauty of the light in the room, the beauty of giving and receiving touch, the beauty of music, the beauty of knowledge, the beauty of being a human, the beauty of tranquility, the beauty of being relaxed. Thank you very much. With kind regards, Aljana."
A married couple from Amsterdam requested massage lessons on a holististic basis. "The massage lesson given by Kees were a joyous and educational event. Kees gives full attention both to explaining and teaching techniques (that is - the correct posture and basic rules) as well as a good feeling for the way of making human contact in a loving way, remaining in the very moment. Thanks! M en F.
July 2008. Professional masseur Toby Joynt works in California, USA. By law he was required to complete 750 hours of massage training. Toby came here to Amsterdam for a masterclass.
"Dear Drs. Kaldenbach
I just wanted to send you my thanks for your exceptional instruction. Your master class was both enlightening and enjoyable. Your knowledge of the human body was impressive but your connection to the soul is what really sets you apart from all other instructors I have worked with. I only wish I would have had more time to spend with you! I will be sure to look you up next time I return to Amsterdam. Thank you again for all your hard work!
Wishing you all the best, Your friend,
Toby Joynt"
August 2010.
Today I experienced the very first tears of joy... welling up slowly in my closed eyes, tears of abundance, goodness, wholeness, really for the first time in my life. Before that moment I knew only of tears of pain and sorrow. Thank you so much for this experience of opening me up. I felt so full and oceanic and safe.
