This is what Tolly Burkan says about Rolf and Owsa Beckman: I have known Rolf and Owsa for over 20 years, as both their friend and teacher. Based on their thorough academic background and their spiritual knowledge of many ancient traditions, including firewalking, they are excellent teachers. Rolf and Owsa walked on fire with me for the first time in 1983, and were certified as F.I.R.E. firewalking instructors in 1992. They were trained in the highest standards of professionalism and responsibility in all aspects of firewalking, including public relations, site management, and logistics for diverse settings. In 1996 they were designated F.I.R.E. Firemasters, indicating that they are authorized by me to certify instructors in the name of the Firewalking Institute of Research and Education.

Joao Wandschneider, Porto, Portugal
Preparing the 12 meters I decided to walk it first of all and two times, altogether 24 meters. The reason was to master the skills of walking without injuries and burns in order to earn the right to instruct others in firewalking. And I did I crossed the lovely red diamond sparkling coals first and turned and went back. No burns not even a hot spot. Thanks for the insights and the connection to the reason for walking on fire and glass, not the actual walking but what we as persons can achieve beyond our limiting beliefs using firewalking as a metaphor for what is possible. I want to thank you Owsa and Rolf, not only for a fantastic training but also for your wonderful hospitality, bringing us into your beautiful home and lives this exciting days.

I´m so happy !! is this a dream or reality?! and I wake up and know it´s real, no dream! I will never forget this training: step by step I found myself, my own reality and my own power. it was a great circle: the energies from the whole group. Thank you for the story of firewalk until the practicalities! Every activity was a challenge to accept and to do and I am so happy that i did everything. The spezials: not only the needle, or the stone, not the round firedance or the walk on glass or the 12 meters or the sweatlodge; so sensitive but so hot harmonically and closed in the circle. Yes it´s this feeling and this gift!! Fredrike von Ostermann , sales manager, Salach, Germany
This training is much more than the theory and the teachings; it´s an overall experience for my personal awareness. It brought a lot of insights and metaphors for issues in my life. It has an excellent balance between theory and practice. It leaves a good base to do firewalks yoursef but permits to incorporate your "own things" in the structure. Four days go fast and seems short! I liked the bridge between modern reality and traditional ceremonies. Rolfs deep experience and lively sprit involves. He is a real example and model. He is the man, he is the king. Him and Owsa are the perfect team. Pedro Figuerido, Trance-dance DJ, Lissabon , Portugal
An overwhelming experience and constant training in making decisions. Luis de Matos, Magician, Ansaio, Portugal
The training is something very different from what I have participated in before. “Learning by doing” is easy to say. Now I know something new: “Learning by feeling”. Everything was so amazing, with the 40 feet firewalk leading straight into my future. This mail from Ritoldas three months after the training pictures well how it is to work with firewalking: "For me these three months were very busy with different training programs. Almost all days, including weekends were booked for trainings. I'm happy to say that two firewalks were conducted during this time. Both groups were up to 20 people, middle level managers. I spent almost three hours for introduction, psychological preparation... It was very interesting to see how persons who seems to be strong and very "active" in training class, become silent and with "big eyes" when it's time to make a real decision. I recognized that to make firewalking perfect I need to put a lot of physical and psychological effort. Especially it is hard after you have all day leadership training on high speed, than prepare fire, prepare participants... After I felt like a god, slept like a child on mothers hands... Wonderfull feelings!!! " Best regards , Ritoldas
I have tears in my eyes as I write this, happy tears, for the power, strength and unconditional trust I found in myself.
This is the best training "out of the box ". The processes we were guided through were transforming, effective and fast if you consider we did a 40 feet firewalk after just 4 days! Thank you for beeing impeccable. Jose' Almeida, Partner Idieas e Desafios, Lissabon, Portugal
I will be back ASAP. Geoff Tappenden, Network Architect, Dubai
The training is challenging with a hihlight everyday. I felt my strength, faced my fears and limitations; did things i thought was impossible. Now I feel blessed You are such a beautiful couple. Rolfs focus and willingness to help me own my own power, you are impressive and good fun to be around. Owsa is soft and gentle, embracing, inspiring and peaceful, a true example of determination in female power. Sanja Erhardt, Agronomist and fireartist, Bavaria, Germany
This was defining, refinding and refinding myself. With love G Kuna , Trainer, Coach, Katahati Institute, Singapore
A lovey clarity in every exercise! Karen Kaae, psychotherapist, Copenhagen, Denmark
If I never in my life will do a firewalking seminar, the training has been worth it all the way. One year after his training we got this e-mail (read) from Johan
The training was a challenging, great and unforgettable experience with the ultimate event: ”Heated Vibes – Go 21 your Lucky number” and bending steel.
The training was fantastic and deeply enlightening. The space for self-reflection over the days at last expressed in the solo firewalk was very important for my personal development.
The moment that I stepped foot on campground I felt the love and warmth surround me. Owsa´s smile and greeting put me immedeately at ease.This has been a journey of self discovery, that I now know will continue to give me the strength and determanition to continue once I get home back into everday life.....I never in my wildest dreams thought I could ever feel so happy and full of spirit.Thank you all!
I had walked on fire at a Tony Robbins training and thought “there has to be more to Firewalking than this”. Indeed there was. When booking the FIT, my intention was to gain practical experience and skills in fire building, firewalking and safety. That all changed when we began training. It challenged many of my beliefs about myself and I used the opportunities, which are many, to exorcise old stuck demons. Open your mind and go for this totally unique adventure now.
Five days that pushed me many times out of the box. I felt, probably for the first time, how my limited belief system works, and I thought a lot about it. The training gave me a lot of joy and happiness and I enjoyed every fire.
The Course: Great timing, great content. Owsa: You are a living experience of Mother Nature between us! Sweet, protector, teacher of life, loving and spreading your essence between us...Rolf: Straight to the heart. You lead Firewalks with the certainty (Certeza) and determination that makes it easy and inspirational.....More than what expected..
First I just want to say THANK YOU for your friendliness and kindness and hospitality. The fire walking was an eye opener and experience and I really enjoyed every moment of it.
My logic told me that what I was about to do, was impossible. Yet at the same time I felt calm, composed and sure of myself and my abilities as I stepped for the first time on the red hot coals at your farm in Sweden. I now know the impossible is possible. I have experienced it by stepping on red hot coals without burning. It was an amazing experience. I calculated and have done at least one hundred and twenty “standard” fire walks and three 40 feet walks during the five day intensive training – and I do not have one blister. I am thankful we have selected you as our teachers (With a financial and economic background, it perhaps made a lot more sense to get two qualified Fire Masters for the price of one ) Each one of you brought a special dimension to the Firewalking experience and as a team you are the best in the world. Rolf showed tremendous natural leadership qualities. What I also liked about the way you handle the FIT was the fact that you did not try to force the students to do anything. You did not try to hype us into doing any thing, that we did not feel comfortable with. Owsa - I liked your ability to share your inner peace and tranquility with us. You have a special aura that surrounds you. Keep on sharing this with as many Firewalking students as possible. You are both true MASTERS. This was certainly one of the most enriching experiences in my life and I will treasure the five day FIT forever. I am also glad I have shared this experience with my best friend, lover, business partner, the mother of my children and wife – Tanja. Our lives will never be the same again. My deepest thanks for sharing your expertise with us.
The Firewalking Instructors Training with Owsa and Rolf will stretch all those that attend, but is thoroughly worthwhile and deeply satisfying....
To all prospective students: The Firewalking Instructors course will challenge you. Just when your mind perceives you have reached your limit, Rolf, Owsa and their very knowledgeable team will inspire you and stretch and your spirit shines more brightly and intense. It´s a gift. Love and respect!
The training is by far the most challenging and spiritual I have ever undertaken. It has given me a sense of courage I could not even imagined. Rolf is a fantastic teacher and I have every confidence in him. He encouraged me to laugh, cry, shout, be angry and also be free. I loved the way he was able to sharply focus the groups’ attention when it was necessary and adapt a more relaxed and friendly manner, which encouraged the group to bond as one as well as give each individual space. Thank you so much Rolf for helping me. Quinta mae terra is truly paradise. The location, weather, hosts, food and animals give the location a wonderful feel of opportunity, safety and love. I cannot think of any improvements. I enjoyed the course so much – from simple exercises to the 40 ft firewalk - and believe we covered everything to become successful Firewalk Instructors.
Owsa and Rolf are genuine trainers of a life style that goes beyond everyday experience. They can unveil the true essence of life at their firewalk trainings...The FIT is a unique chance for a powerful experience that can transform fear into joy.
I have found my inner power that I never thought was there before. So many skills, powerful spirit and love. It has made so much difference in my life. There is always a possibility and chance to achieve what we want, when we believe so.
I thought it was “only” about firewalking but in fact I learned so much more. About my personal growth, techniques of mind and to experience friendship with people from the whole world. The most important is that we learn that it is not how tough we are to walk on fire that matters, but to appreciate and understand both our limitations and our inner strength. Rolf and Owsa: I appreciate the truth you give and that it really shows that you care for us and for the abundance of the training. The training brought me face to face with my deepest fears and I understood that if I’m not willing to face them, transformation is not possible. Another important aspect was becoming friend with an element such as fire, getting to know it in a personal way, letting it be the teacher. Rolf has a powerful way of teaching, combining very well his knowledge of the mind from a western psychological point of view with the ancient knowledge coming from different traditions.
It is an amazing and fantastic, magical course where your personal limits are reached and surpassed time after time. It has been a grat learning experience, both in terms of personal focus, power and being in touch with your own personal, emotional and spiritual side.Rolf has an inspiring and happy focused but constructive aura of madness and happiness around him which is really contagious and a delightful experience.Owsa has the deep connection to the emotional, spiritual side of firewalking which gives a fantastic shaman-like earth-female energy to complement Rolf. It is an amazing and fantastic combination. Thank you for allowing me experience this.
We received this e mail – with the subject “what have you done to me” from Paul Miller after the 2006 training in Sweden: Next thing we know Paul goes of to Indonesia for some high-profiled firewalks together with Wiwi and Anthony who trained at the same FIT.
Very revolutionary days, my soul and body has been turned outside in several times. The training was much more than firewalking. I have met the most fantstic, wonderful people, from many different countries. I´m so happy and thankful that I came. Owsa and Rolf, you´ve got something special. Contact with powers I can´t see but feel.
What can you say about Rolf? He is an experience you will never forget!
This was almost the best thing that happened in my life. With love and respect!
I had an expectation that I would have the skills to run commercial firewalking events. But instead you made me look into myself and it was one of the biggest gifts I have ever received. I loved the beautiful spirit of joy and love that was weaved seamlessly in every moment. I know now that to access your personal power is a decision only you can make and the emphasis of the whole training was to give you greater confidence and trust in yourself.
This training showed me new levels and ways in this life and Owsas gentleness and silent power was very important for me.
I haven’t words to explain how much this training has given to me. I’ve discovered a reality: There are no languages, no countries, no colours; Just the language of love and the power of sharing. Thank you.
The training was an amazing experience and exceeded my wildest expectations. While the practical aspects of firebuilding, firewalking etc were covered in much detail, the essence of fire was delivered in a very beautiful way. From this I feel more powerful and trusting of my own essence and core.
..You´ve made me look into myself for 5 days, which is more than I´ve done for 41 years. I have had a hard work to be openminded. I guess I have "mental" acheness after training. One Micke arrived .....another Micke left. Thanks!
This course has been inspirational to me personally as well as giving me valuable business lessons. A very broad spectrum of skills and a feeling of complete accomplishment. Rolf is inspirational, mad (in a good way!), professional, assertive, approachable, intelligent and fun. The perfect combination for this type of course. Thank you for an amazing 5 days!
Rolf is a natural motivator and inspiration. Together with Owsas calm and spiritual presence, they make an outstanding team, moving the training from highlight to highlight. Good balance between seminar time and time to interact with the group and to get in deeper contact with myself. Thank you for enriching my life.
The training was easy and relaxed, at the same time enthusiastic and inspiring! You explained everything very well, I felt it was thorough and safe. I’m glad I came to you to learn firewalking. I can see that you are experts and very connected to the fire. You are a wonderful example of how to live. Thank you for showing us, teaching us about firewalking, respect and love for the fire, earth, nature and others. I will look back on these days as one of my best experiences. The highlight for me was the 40-foot firewalk. Now I truly know I can do anything I put my heart and mind into. Also the sweatlodge was fantastic. I found I could go far beyond what I thought possible, thank for sharing that with us in such a superb way.
I really enjoyed the course and found there to be much more than I bargained for. The spirit of the place and two of you is infectious and I came away feeling like I had not only gained a huge amount of
Extraordinary spirit and vibe! Each day was different and very special – I could feel my boundaries expanding with every exercise. Very spiritual and professional. Rolf and Owsa are beautifully connected couple. I learned from Rolf how important it is to be true to yourself and others and Owsa: love and faith shine from you so strongly I can almost touch it. You reminded me that we all come from nature and are a part of nature.
For me you are both real techers. Real techers do not only have a great knowledge, but also want to share it. And you both did....Your staff are very good. And also always there to share their knowledge.....Many thanks for given me and others the opportunity to become firewalk instructors!
What a heat! I came without really knowing the conditions – and I felt I came home. The respect you have for the participants and the environment, made me relax and accept others and myself. One year after his training in 2006, we got this mail from Mattias: I cannot believe it´s more than a year since I was certified by you. Daily I remind myself to pay attention and practice the five points of power. I still don´t know what happened to me during the training, but those days changed my view of life in a way I thought was not possible. I now have tools to be centered and focused and at the same time I´m happy and playful.
Those five days I will remember all my life. It was like returning to long time ago adventure. It was great from the first step on camp until I understood that it was over. Rolf is a master of how he lives, what he does and how he introduces it to the world. Owsas gentleness was the biggest thing.
A well balanced program wit a message which is so very close to the heart. Jon Earle, New Zealand
Training was totally amazing. Well organized I felt I had the time and space to complete my journey and truly understand what it is to walk on fire. Te fire dance was my highlight – I will always remebmer how soft, gently and wonderful the coals felt. Thank you Åsa, I have taken so much from your spirit, kondness and love. You are a true inspiration for woman. Jenny O´Kelly, Hypnothrapist, Bedfordshire, Ireland
The training was a life expiriance in mind and body understanding. It releases the potential buried inside and allows to expose the fears through deep expression, challenges and fire. Mark Singelton, Royal Navy,Berkshire, England

Rolf is straight to the point and supportive without sentiment, ensuring people to take responsibilty for themselfes. Rob Purfield, Company Director PLP, Cottingham, England
Training is the wrong word for what we experienced. I feel like Ive been here for months, not just some days. It will take months to realise just what Ive gone through. However, I leave with a number of very clear intentions for me and my family. Dean Hines, CEO, Willerby, England

The 108 firewalk was my higlight. An excellent eveningspent with good music, good food and new friends. Steve Stuttard, Managing Director, PTGM ltd, Manchester, England
This training exceeded my expectations. I realized that I can achieve more than I consciously know. I came to learn firewalking and I did, but most important I learned about myself and my possibilities. Wojcieh Glanc, Warsaw, Poland
The Firewalking Instructors Training was a wonderful experience from start to finish. Rolf and Owsa are inspirational people who lead by a quiet and congruent attitude which I respect and admire. Rolf is a very gifted trainer and lives his life with truth and honesty,. He is generous with his knowledge and has an orginal style which made everything fun, exciting and inspirational. My anticipations were exceeded in more ways than I could have imagined. If you considering this course, don´t wait JUST DO IT! The sweatlodge was an emotional and very personal moment which I will be eternally grateful to Rolf and Owsa for inviting me to participate in and for guiding me through Steve Crabb, Peak performance coach, business consultant, NLP Master Trainer, London
