Biography

Alje van Hoorn is a native of Cape Town, South Africa now residing in Southeast Michigan servicing small business leaders and individuals. He applies the insights he learned from his country becoming united in times of political challenges and his personal health struggles to effectively make a difference in the lives of individuals who are seeking a greater sense of fulfillment.

He initially entered the field of coaching as a sports coach— training high school children and University teams in rowing. His great understanding of the human mind and the physiology of the sport helped to lead his teams to national victories.

When his personal health deteriorated and he became unable to effectively coach sports he turned his attention to the workings of the human mind; this led him to study behavioral psychologies— those which explain the way we interpret and code our daily experiences. Throughout his studies it became clear to him that we have more control than we realize over how our thoughts and memories influence our outer realities and the decisions we make.

After gaining full health Alje spent two years traveling, experiencing a fusion of cultures and testing his new understanding of the working and thinking mind to see if they were universally applicable.

Alje is a certified Master NLP Practitioner and uses these tools for implementing change in the lives of others. It is with this insight into how humans think that he applies the skills he has learned to aid individuals in gaining a more powerful perception of what they can achieve— shattering limiting perceptions and building empowering beliefs, those which lead us to personal triumphs.

In his spare time he enjoys surrounding himself with nature and learning natural horsemanship— learning how to use body posturing to communicate with horses.

Alje’s Mission Statement:

My mission as a coach is to help ambitious individuals, entrepreneurs and small business owners to develop internal and external structures that allow them to realize their goals and potential to achieve success. It is my dream to aid people so they have zero regrets by the time they feel too old to act upon their own dreams. I will fight for your success and greatness, motivate and support you while you initiate the improvements you need to achieve your desires. Through making individuals aware of their true potential their sense of possibility is enlarged and you are able to create a purpose driven, healthy, balanced life, allowing you to grow beyond your current bounds.

I always encourage individuals to develop and expand their skills and attitudes, and to seek the knowledge that will help them develop an action plan to meet their needs so they can lead their life’s mission with inner congruence and integrity.
