OUR STUDIO & TEAM

During extensive travels and longer stays across Asia, Shervin experienced how deeply regular rituals and intentional recovery can shape wellbeing. He founded Zenctuary with a clear vision: to bring the benefits of sauna, ice bath, breathwork and mindful regeneration out of the retreat setting and into everyday life. The result is an urban oasis where people can calm their nervous system on a regular basis, restore their energy and consciously slow down — without travelling far or taking several days off. Because lasting wellbeing doesn't come from rare escapes, but from small, regular moments of regeneration that fit into modern life for good.

I've long been fascinated by the question of how we can create a life that feels light, free and in balance. Wellbeing, personal growth and mental health have accompanied and inspired me for many years.

That makes it all the more special to combine this passion with my work at Zenctuary. It motivates me deeply to help shape a place that supports people in finding calm, restoring their energy and consciously taking time for themselves in the middle of a busy city.

I spent 15 years exploring spirituality, trying different practices, studying with different teachers, walking different paths. Along the way, my understanding of what was possible shifted. Spiritual work changed how I saw myself, my relationships, the world.

That's what moves me to support others through their own transformation. Not as an expert telling people what to do, but as someone who's been on the journey and knows how disorienting and also how powerful it can be. I'm grateful to be part of Zenctuary's space, where these transformations can actually happen, where people can explore, shift, and reconnect with who they truly are.

Over the years, I've explored different ways of connecting with myself and understanding what happens within. Some of my deepest reflections have happened on a yoga mat, learning to listen to my body, allow myself to feel, and simply be more present.

What I love about Zenctuary is that it makes this way of living more consciously tangible. A space where we can pause, breathe, reconnect with the body and simply be, without having to escape from everyday life.

I'm very happy to be part of a space that invites people to slow down, turn inward and create their own moments of calm and wellbeing in the middle of everyday life.

My own longing for more depth, aliveness and connection opened the door to spirituality for me a few years ago. Since then, precious practices like yoga and meditation have been my ways of seeing myself and the world from a more holistic perspective. It remains a deeply freeing realisation that we are all part of something greater — and that we may trust life despite our doubts and fears.

Even though everyone ultimately walks their own path, I find it invaluable to keep meeting others and to notice how many people are exploring the same big questions. Zenctuary is a place of genuine encounter, where everyone can be exactly as they are and where body and mind can come to rest. Especially in fast-paced Berlin, I often longed for a space like this — which makes me all the happier to be part of this oasis.

I discovered yoga in 2020 as an online alternative to physical exercise, and gradually understood that it had much more to offer than just flexibility.

Yoga is a practice that deepens introspection, awareness, focus, self-acceptance, discipline, and ultimately spirituality. And Zenctuary is much more than a yoga studio: it's a place to go within, slow down, discover different practices, and combine mindful movement with stillness and rest in the middle of a busy city.

I'm incredibly happy to be part of this reality, and am looking forward to sharing my practice and learnings with the community of this special place.
