Will Schneider

Will Schneider

Will is a mindfulness teacher helping to teach men how to emotionally regulate through the practices of breathing, meditation, movement, and mindfulness.

From teaching and practicing for the last 19 years, Will helps men to develop self-mastery. Stripping away all the fancy words and esoteric language has helped all his students embody practices in a meaningful and sustainable way.

Two men, from very different backgrounds have joined forces to meet up to discuss how mindfulness has impacted their lives.

The MWC are delighted that both Jon and Will are happy to discuss their journey’s with us and how they foster a safe space for men to be honest with themselves so they can heal and grow.

This session will be facilitated by BAMBA Trustee, Mark Randall.

Free to MWC members. Friend and guests are welcome to attend for £15.00 or donation.
