Dr. Stephen Skinner took his degree in English Literature and Geography at Sydney University. Initially he worked as a Geography lecturer. Research in Hong Kong lead in 1976 to Stephen writing the first English book on feng shui written in the 20th century, the Living Earth Manual of Feng Shui. This book first brought feng shui to the attention of the Western world.

When Western interest in feng shui began to be noticeable in the 1980s, Stephen produced Feng Shui: the Traditional Oriental Way which became an instant best seller.

In 1998 he launched the Feng Shui for Modern Living monthly magazine, whose first issue sold 121,000 copies, more than either Elle Décor or Wallpaper magazines in the UK. In 1999 he was nominated as PPA ‘Publisher of the Year’ for his work in launching this magazine. This magazine helped popularize feng shui round the world, and it was distributed in 41 countries. He even produced a Chinese language edition in Taipei which ran successfully for 34 issues.

In the same year he launched the ‘London International Feng Shui Conference,’ the largest feng shui conference ever held in UK/Europe, then or since, with 700 attendees and four simultaneous lecture theatres. The following year Stephen gave one of the three Doyle lectures in New York, sharing the bill with Martha Stewart Living and Country Living magazines.

In 1999 he was honoured for his contributions to traditional Chinese culture, by being invited to Manila in the Philippines for the official celebrations of Chinese New Year, as the guest of the Mayors of both Manila and Makati.

In 2004 he was part of the Committee, along with Masters Tan Koon Yong, Yap Cheng Hai, Vincent Koh and Raymond Lo that founded the International Feng Shui Association (IFSA) in Singapore. He has since lectured at a number of their feng shui Conventions.

Stephen has published more than a dozen books on feng shui, including Advanced Flying Star Feng Shui, K.I.S.S. Guide to Feng Shui Compass, Feng Shui the Traditional Oriental Way, Practical Makeovers, Feng Shui Before & After, and the beautiful Feng Shui Style.

He has also published four translations of feng shui classics: The Water Dragon, The Original Eight Mansions Formula, The Key San He Feng Shui Formulas, and The Mountain Dragon.

In October 2015 the title of Grand Master was conferred on Stephen at the 12th Annual Convention of the International Feng Shui Association in Shanghai. Stephen Skinner is the author of over 46 books, translated into more than 20 different languages. He lives in London, where he researches, writes and does feng shui consultation.

Sherry Merchant creates better lives with Chinese Metaphysics. Scheherazade or Sherry as she is also called, practiced Interior Design for the first 18 years of her working life. Along the way, she discovered a distinct pattern of change in the quality of peoples’ lives, once their premises had been renovated or they shifted into new premises, and wanted to find what this greater unseen influencing force was.

Curiosity got the better of her and she discovered that this was an actual study in many cultures, and finally tracked down various disciplines including Vaastu and Feng Shui.

She then, just by chance, came across a course being taught by Grand Master Yap Cheng Hai and attended it and through him, her primary source of influence and learning, Joey Yap. This was in 2000 and it was a life changing experience for her. From this point on, her Interior Design business was handed over to her associates and she turned totally towards the study of Chinese Metaphysics and from this point on there was no looking back.

Sherry is qualified in many disciplines of Chinese Metaphysics, ranging from the Chinese Astrology method of BaZi to Feng Shui, Yi Jing and the more sophisticated Xuan Kong Da Gua and now Qi Men Dun Jia.

She is well known for her extensive knowledge base combined with a remarkable photographic memory and deeply intuitive judgement. She uses her academic knowledge along with these other factors, to make a complete educated assessment of her client’s issues. This spectacular combination has led to her recognition as a well-respected and internationally renowned Feng Shui consultant.

She has lent her expertise to residences, offices, factories, airlines, banks, property developments and schools. Her client base, though confidential, covers professionals, celebrities, powerful business barons and everyday people. She consults both in India and abroad and her practice has taken her to almost every continent in the world.

Working with architects forms a significant part of her practice, as she does not obstruct their plans with ridiculous demands, but merely aids the process and helps them to make it smoother. Having been an interior designer increases her knowledge and understanding of the business and being part of a family of property developers also gives her a good understanding of the rules and zoning laws required to give solutions that are compliant with the laws of the land and helps the smooth flow of events.

Since 2012, in an effort to share her professional and academic experiences, Sherry has been holding her own professional workshops to train students for a career in Chinese Metaphysics. She is a well sought out teacher and has taught in many countries and continues to do so regularly.

Most recently, she has created a concise suite of home study workshops available online where selected courses she has taught have been video graphed and presented as e-learning experiences.

A habitual blogger, she regularly shares her experiences on social media, bringing her fascinating Feng Shui world to her band of followers comprising of students, colleagues, friends and Feng Shui enthusiasts of all levels. She writes on travel, food and of course her first love, Feng Shui.

Sherry travels extensively, but never neglects her clients and students, hence has a team in place to assist you and connect you to her while she is away. This way, there is a seamless interaction with you, regardless which part of the world she is in, as she is regularly in touch with her office on a daily basis, even while away.

With all my other interests I eventually reach a point of overload but this has never been the case with Feng Shui – I find that even after a busy day working I’m never too tired to read about Feng Shui often late into the night.

I put this down to a passion which goes a long way back to when I actually didn’t know it was Feng Shui. As a little girl I was fascinated with my neighborhood and the homes in it.

The way most of the families were distinctly different even if the only difference was that they lived on one side or the other of the road.

I would find myself evaluating (even at a very young age) each time I visited my friends. Some of the homes were warm and welcoming with beautiful smells, the families were caring and their children (my friends) did well at school. On the other hand there were homes where the parents worked almost all the time. Their homes felt in-need of love, filled with fear, arguments and at times even violence.

Our home was neither one nor the other, overflowing with books, music and food, yet we lived happily and humbly. Years later it all made a sense to me as I realized that the Feng Shui and the lay of the land of my small community had so much to do with it. Some of our neighbors lived near the river while some were facing an old cemetery and some of us were on the other side of the hill.

Today I’m still curious and find myself carrying my compass with me, like a detective taking a compass reading on a house that is up for sale. Wanting to know why is this home for sale?

… my trusted Lou-pan (compass) tells a story most of the time.

Is it upgrading due to good prosperity?

Is it disagreements and arguments?

Or is it a marriage break up?

Nowadays my aim is to encourage my students and clients to be conscious of the energies around them and how these make them feel. OUR feelings in our homes are the symptoms that tell the story of what is the energy like in our space, Feng Shui is the way of diagnosing and prescribing treatment…for our homes and business…

it’s that simple…

I have been very lucky in my life to cross paths with many Feng Shui teachers, their generosity with time & sharing their knowledge has been inspiring.

My most respected teacher is the esteemed Classical Feng Shui Master Joseph Yu. Sitting in the front row of his class and hearing him explain formula’s thousands of years old , I came to realization that Classical Feng Shui cannot be absorbed even from the best books on the subject. A serious student of Classical Feng Shui should at least once in their lifetime spend some time learning from and in the presence of a true Classical Feng Shui Master like Joseph Yu.

My Feng Shui studies have taken me to different parts of the world like

Hong Kong,

Malaysia,

Singapore,

India,

China,

Canada,

Taiwan,

and Indonesia Bali to learn the Balinese’s sacred relationship with their land. I love the Balinese ancient wisdom, the architecture and the culture so much that in 2015, I facilitated my first Bali retreat, I now run annual Retreats to Bali for Feng Shui , Yoga, Space Blessing Retreat and cultural exploration.

I have been fortunate to attend a Feng Shui Conference on Architecture and Building Design in Hong Kong where I met many Masters and teaches and was fortunate to meet and see Grand Master Raymond Lo who I also admire.

I look forward to continuing the study of Feng Shui for the rest of my life and sharing my knowledge.

After couple of years as the Association of Feng Shui Consultants (AFSC) Education Coordinator,

I’m proud to say that I served as a President for 2015/2016/2017/2018 and 2019 for the AFSC Association of Feng Shui Consultants International,

Being a Classical Feng Shui Consultant is incredibly rewarding but also comes with a lot of responsibility, and I appreciate that.

The complexities of this Ancient Study have made a great transformation in my personal life as well as the lives of my students and clients.

Wishing you all harmonious living with Feng Shui.

In European College of Feng Shui (ECOFS), we aim to produce students and practitioners who are not only practically efficient but also classically correct. By being classically correct, we mean the sources of our teaching materials all came from the Chinese Feng Shui classics and we use them as our starting point to explore the theories and the practice of Feng Shui.

We have a healthy respect for the written words of the past but we do not follow the classics blindly, for as Zhuangzi said it once, reading the books of sages who are no longer with us is like looking at the drudges of dead men. We try to make the classical text come alive and use the past to serve the present instead.

Being Feng Shui architects, we have a spatial design orientated approach to Feng Shui and we teach in a practical, efficient and down-to-earth manner with the learning of the classical theories always supported by case studies and practical on-site applications in a modern environment.

We prefer face-to-face teaching in an intimate atmosphere, where the individual progress of a student is of primary concern to us. We truly believe that the future of Feng Shui as a profession depends on the quality of the students a teaching institution like ours can produce. Therefore we will try our hardest to bring out the best qualities in each one of the students who will attend our courses.

This we promise, and will deliver.

Penso che il mio viaggio nel Feng Shui sia iniziato quando, da piccolo, mi sono chiesto: ma perché le città sono tanto brutte? Possibile che non facciano stare male nessun altro oltre a me? Possibile che nessuno preferisca forme e colori più gradevoli, più morbidi?

 … possibile che nessuno senta “il messaggio”?

A scuola fu ancora peggio: praticamente una fila di stalle asettiche, monotone nella loro struttura rettangolare. Ora so perché fossero così vuote, così prive di riferimenti a cui un bambino piccolo si potesse agganciare per sentirsi più sicuro. La storia si è ripetuta con le varie case in cui ho abitato. Perché le stanze erano disposte proprio in quel modo, quando un’altra disposizione sarebbe stata più comoda e più bella?

E i letti? Quante notti insonni per colpa di letti mal posizionati o con un cattivo orientamento…

In unserer heutigen schnelllebigen Zeit ist eine harmonische und inspirierende Umgebung wichtig wie nie zuvor. Feng Shui, die chinesische Lehre der Harmonie, schafft ein gesundes Raumklima und Feng Shui Berater sind gefragter denn je. Die Internationale Feng Shui Akademie ist die einzige Schule in Deutschland, die nach den Prinzipien des “Yuen Hom Da Gua” lehrt und arbeitet. Diese Methode ermöglicht sehr differenzierte und komplexe Analysen.
