Embark on an uplifting journey of service and harmony with Maxence Vandevivère as he shares his remarkable tale on Living With Purpose. 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. 

Join us as Maxence shares his profound insights into the art of living in harmony with oneself and others, offering a symphony of inspiration and guidance for all who seek to find fulfillment through service and solidarity.
