With an unwavering commitment to spreading joy and an ethos rooted in the principle of doing no harm, Maxence's life is a testament to the transformative power of compassion and solidarity.
From his formative years in the French army, where he learned the profound lesson of leaving no man behind, to his multifaceted career as a commercial pilot, flight instructor, and engineer specializing in aircraft construction, Maxence embodies the spirit of service in every facet of his life. As a devoted father and esteemed educator at ETS, he imparts invaluable wisdom to the next generation, emphasizing the importance of meeting people where they are and nurturing their individual aspirations.
Maxence's philosophy of embracing life's currents and flowing with the rhythm of existence mirrors his passion for judo, where he champions the ethos of "destroy the fight, not the person." Drawing parallels to his decades-long journey as a violin player and instructor, he advocates for a teaching approach grounded in empathy and understanding, guiding his students to reach their full potential on their own terms.
At the heart of Maxence's ethos lies a deep reverence for the interconnectedness of humanity, likening life to an orchestral performance where each individual plays a vital role in creating harmony. For Maxence, the pursuit of happiness is intrinsically linked to fostering unity and cohesion, as he believes that going against the natural flow of life is akin to courting disaster.

Ruthie's Table 4
For more than 30 years The River Cafe in London, has been the home-from-home of artists, architects, designers, actors, collectors, writers, activists, and politicians. Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
