Breathwork and body-awareness
In Asia, there has been a focus on the health and spiritual aspects of breathing for 2000 years. But here in Europe too, there is ancient knowledge on breathing.

Group classes
Sitting or standing, we perform simple body movements and massage techniques on ourselves, which promote the natural flow of breath.
When we breathe in, the diaphragm contracts and sinks. This presses the abdominal organs towards the pelvis and against the abdominal walls. At the same time, the ribs rise, expanding the ribcage. When we breathe out, the body walls move back inwards. So breathing makes us alternately broader and smaller.
Regular practice - in class and at home - improves the body’s receptivity to the breathing movements, strengthens the respiratory system, and brings us into contact with our inner resources.
Individual sessions
We work on your individual needs, including hands-on work where necessary:
Fully dressed, you lie down on the breathing couch. With his hands and words the teacher helps you to better perceive your body, in order to free up your breathing. In tune with your breathing, he applies fine pressure, stroke, stretch and mobilise the different parts of your body. This creates space in your body and your breath becomes free and starts to flow.
