Born in Sweden in 1989, Benjamin Lindh Medin grew up in the space where art and healing intertwine. With a mother who gave voice to stories on stage and a father who traveled the world sharing the wisdom of yoga, Benjamin’s childhood was filled with movement, creativity, and a deep curiosity about the connection between body and mind.

​

His journey began early, practicing Ashtanga Yoga under his father’s guidance at the age of eight. From there, he has found his way into the world of breaking, ballet, martial arts and contemporary dance, drawn by a fascination for the body’s ability to express, transform, and heal. Yet it has been through various injuries and introspection where Benjamin discovered somatic practices, a turning point which has guided him towards a more holistic relationship with the body and life.

​

For over a decade, Qi Gong has been at the center of Benjamin’s practice—a gentle yet profound way of listening to the body’s wisdom. Alongside this, his path has been shaped by experiences in Thai and Ayurvedic massage, meditation, as well as within his artistic work as a dancer and singer/songwriter. His teaching carries the essence of these practices, weaving together threads of sensitivity, trust, and a deeper connection to our inner nature.

​

From these explorations, The Listening Body was born—a practice that invites us to rediscover our innate balance and harmony. Rooted in the belief that the body holds stories and wisdom waiting to be heard, it offers a way to bridge the inner and outer worlds, to play, and to simply be.
