A more holistic approach is required — and that’s why this Wim Hof Method workshop plus the extra “stress to rest” module makes the perfect team-building exercise.

Most corporate team-building

Events are limited to alleviating workplace stress and bringing people together. This Wim Hof Method training by Pieter Coenaerts involves connecting with others — and ourselves — on a deeper level. Put simply, Pieter utilizes his considerable experience in business training and assessment to adapt the Wim Hof Method for corporate environments.

Pieter knows both these worlds intimately, which is why he has been able to blend them seamlessly. A rewarding and life-affirming alternative to traditional team-building exercises, Pieter’s Wim Hof Method training recognizes that stress isn’t just a work-based affliction. Your work life and home life are inextricably linked, so it makes sense to make permanent changes to the way you approach both. What Pieter is offering transcends the premise of team building; it’s much more than that. While attendees learn the principles of the Wim Hof Method in the workplace, they learn how to apply them throughout every aspect of their lives. This is what sets Pieter Coenaerts’ approach to the Wim Hof Method apart. He isn't just focused on one sphere. The work Pieter does lives with attendees forever — helping them to focus, manage stress, and foster creativity for years to come.

Alleviating Stress Shouldn’t Be Limited to the Workplace

”Work and life are not opposing forces. At Life Explorers, we aim to give people access to their natural state of Yutori — the peace of mind and mental space required to be creative and productive. This approach is designed for use both at home and in the workplace.”

— Pieter Coenaerts.

  • “I went into the workshop not knowing for sure if I could make the ice bath, but at the moment that counted, Pieter was guiding me step by step and was pretty good at reading what I needed and I think he adapted the experience nicely for each person of the group. I did go in the ice bath, and I think I wanna go again and again. It’s not a feeling that I can reallydescribe but the energy that it brings afterwards is amazing.”

    — Laura Fadda, 2024.

  • “I went into this day being fearful and doubting myself. With the carefully selected playful games, theory, and the incredible group of people, I drew strength from places I didn't know I had it. The breathwork was deep and explosive for me and to do it with a group — well it literally blew me away. It brought alive in me a warrior I never knew existed. My heart, body, and soul longed for this, and I am eternally grateful to Pieter for bringing this workshop to Sligo. Please come back again soon.”

    — Michelle Calpin, 2024.

  • “I didn’t know what to expect besides the breathing/ice, so I felt out of my comfort zone with some of the team-building games. I can now see that they were received positively by everyone, and despite my personal feelings, I can see the effectiveness of such activities. A great day spent learning and meeting new people.”

    — Rebecca Ibison, 2024
