Malte Marten
Malte Marten is a handpan artist whose journey began with a single moment of inspiration in 2014. Deeply moved by the sound of the instrument, he followed an inner calling that led him to leave behind his former path as a beatmaker and dedicate himself entirely to the handpan.
Since then, his music has touched millions worldwide. What started as a personal exploration evolved into a global resonance with listeners describing his sound not merely as music, but as a source of healing, clarity, and emotional connection.
Beyond performing, Malte is devoted to sharing his passion. As co-founder of YataoShop and creator of the Malte Marten Method, he has guided thousands of students to discover their own voice through the handpan. His work is not just about learning an instrument, it is about accessing deeper emotions and transforming them into sound.
Rooted in authenticity, love, and community, Malte’s journey continues to expand through concerts, education, and new creative visions, always in service of connection.

Buddhist Global Relief
Their Vision....
We are inspired by the vision of a world in which debilitating poverty has finally been banished; a world in which all can avail themselves of the basic material supports of a meaningful life—food, clothing, housing, and health care; a world in which everyone can achieve a satisfactory level of education and freely pursue that which gives their life value and purpose; a world in which all people dwell in peace and harmony with one another and with the natural environment.

Wim Hof Method
Realise your full potential
Over time, our relationship with the world we live in has changed. Our lifestyles have disconnected us from the natural environment.
Because of this disconnection, our age-old survival mechanisms are no longer triggered and we’ve lost touch with our inner power.
Through decades of self-exploration and groundbreaking scientific studies, Wim has created a simple, effective way to stimulate these deep physiological processes and realise our full potential.
The Wim Hof Method is about reconnecting us - to ourselves, to others and to nature.

Finding alternatives to palm oil
Widespread palm oil plantations across Indonesia illustrate the environmental degradation of a once vivid ecosystem. 25% of Indonesia’s rainforests have been replaced by vast palm oil plantations, pushing out wildlife and endangering the livelihoods of farming communities. With your help, we are restoring forests on former plantations to create alternative sources of income.
Re-greening the desert
There’s hardly a place more vulnerable to climate change than northern Burkina Faso and southern Mali. Planting trees here restores desertified land to its former fertility, curbs violent conflict by creating employment, improves nutrition through agroforestry, and encourages communities to take charge of their future.
Restoring the home of our closest living relative
Only 5000 chimpanzees remain in Uganda, and their habitat is shrinking due to a growing demand for charcoal and firewood. Chimpanzees are shy animals, but have been forced to leave the forest in search of food, creating conflicts with farmers. Together with the Jane Goodall Institute and Trees for Humanity we plant tree corridors that connect remaining forests, so chimps can safely move between them.
Horse & Healing
My work is with horses and people with Non Verbal Autism or with Autism Spectrum Disorder. To help them connect with their own body and their environment. And to give them voice via Horse-energy.

The Global White Lion Protection trust
Today all conservation issues are global issues. If Brazil loses its rainforests, the world has lost its lungs. If South Africa loses its white lions, the world has lost its heart.
The global white lion protection trust is a registred Non Profit Organization in a protected area of endemic bushveld in the Greater Timbavati South Africa. The white Lion trust has succesfully reintroduced white lions into their natural habitat, in a carefully phased groundbreaking scientific program.
Positive Emotions and Psychophysiology Laboratory
We are interested in how positive emotions affect people’s thinking patterns, social behavior, health, and physiological reactions. Our ultimate goal is to understand how positive emotions might accumulate and compound to transform people’s lives for the better.
Our techniques include analyzing reactivity in people’s autonomic nervous systems and facial muscles. We also assess the breath of attention and cognition using various computerized reaction time tests. We are also expert in asking people to report on their subjective experiences of emotions and emotion-related experiences using both on-line and retrospective techniques.
Foundations of therapeutic music
My experience with the four-month live program Foundations of Therapeutic Music, developed by Mendel Kaelen, has been deeply inspiring and transformative.
This immersive journey goes beyond learning about therapeutic music, it invites you to reconnect with your own musical self. It is a process of listening, sensing, and discovering, moving beyond technique into genuine experience and connection.
What makes this program truly unique is the way it teaches you to attune to the musical world of others. Through this attunement, a natural openness emerges, allowing for authentic and meaningful connection.
From this place, something essential unfolds: the ability to meet others in a present, sincere, and responsive way, aligning with their musical language and inner world. Music becomes more than expression; it becomes a bridge, a pathway to connection, understanding, and shared experience.
