Breathwork

How do I know which level of breathwork class to take?

  • Beginner: for breathwork newbies. Master the fundamentals with simple, straightforward techniques.
  • Beginner Plus: once you’re comfortable with the basics, take a little step up with slightly more challenging techniques and paces.
  • Intermediate: when you’re confident you have a strong baseline of breathwork, level up with more complex breathing patterns and intensity.
  • Advanced: for breathwork pros using advanced techniques and really pushing tolerance levels.

How often should I be doing classes?

For measurable results, we recommend 3 to 5 classes a week.
