Born in Australia to German immigrants, Tina grew up with a deep love for nature and a big, blended family - her twin brother Andreas, older brother Michael, and half-sister Claudia in Berlin. Her first calling was as a chef, which took her across Europe and into studies in Switzerland. That journey led her to Africa for two unforgettable years. Eventually, Tina returned home and found peace (and passion) in Tasmania, spending 11 years as a woodworker. But her love of human movement and healing drew her to Boulder, Colorado, where she trained as a Rolfer, then later moved to Seattle to be close to the sea—her second home. The biggest joy of her life? Adopting her son Joaquin from Guatemala. At just 18 months, he chose Jeff, her amazing husband, to join their family—and it was the best decision he ever made. For nearly three decades, Tina has helped people feel better in their bodies—through Rolfing, nutrition, and now through MOVE ME, a new adventure to clean up our oceans, one powerful habit change at a time.
