Adam Barley (UK)
By some wild grace I found the core vision for ZeroOne via a lesson at school that I never forgot, melded with my passion for altered states and understanding this reality we live in. I bring a deep commitment to the synthesis of radical awakening and artistic expression through movement practice, and a devotion to embodied experience as a 24/7 discipline. I have also learnt the hard way that movement alone is not enough; that we need to speak the truth in words too. So be it.
Adam knew from a very early age that he longed to be a pilgrim, had his first glimpse of the truth aged 17, and set out to find his feet a year later. With nearly 40 years experience in meditation and embodiment practices, he focussed deeply upon the 5Rhythms from 1991-2019, training with Gabrielle Roth to teach her work and building a world-wide reputation for powerfully transformative workshops. Having understood the profound symbolism of Euler’s Identity —arguably the keystone of mathematics— his work is now coming of age, integrating its meaning into an understanding of human nature and thereby bridging the worlds of science and spirituality with personal and collective evolution.

Deep thanks go to Gabrielle Roth, Gabor Maté, David Deida, Susannah & Ya’Acov Darling-Khan, Prem Pal Sing Rawat, Nick Hedley and Helena Løvendal for their profound teachings, but also Karen Melin, Mackenzie Amara, Yves Delattre and Si Thacker for their contributions towards getting ZeroOne off the ground. Not least also to Maria-Carin Gala for her constant support, fresh perspective and keen eye for BS.
Adam is currently in ‘Compassionate Inquiry’ training with Gabor Maté.
