“The greatest indicator of life span wasn’t genetics, diet, or the amount of daily exercise, as many had suspected. It was lung capacity”
— James Nestor, Breath: The New Science of a Lost Art

Breathwork

Have you ever wondered if you’re breathing correctly? What even is correct breathing?

We take around 23,000 breaths a day, but have you ever been taught how to breathe?

Although breathing is an innate bodily function that happens without thought, the way we breathe can have a large impact on health.

By changing the way we breathe to a more functional breathing pattern it can have a wealth of health benefits that include; lower blood pressure, increased oxygenation and blood flow, improved posture, reduce stress, faster recovery, better sleep

I specialise in 4 areas of breathwork

  • 1

    Functional breathing patterns

  • 2

    Simulating high altitude training (IHHT)

  • 3

    Breathing techniques and practices

  • 4

    Breathwork for improved sports performance

What is functional Breathing? - LSD Breathing

  • Light Breathing

    Light breathing focuses on the biochemistry of the breath and the relationship between carbon dioxide and oxygen. Breathing lightly (less air) will allow for increased oxygen uptake

  • Slow Breathing

    Slow breathing will activate the body’s parasympathetic side of the autonomic nervous. This is your body’s ability to rest, digest and grow.

  • Deep Breathing

    Deep breathing means taking air deeper into the lungs, not taking a bigger breath. Drawing air deep into the lungs using the diaphragm will allow for the most gas to be exchanged

Breathwork sessions

I offer 1-1 or group sessions which can take place at a specific venue or online from the comforts of your home

One-to-One Session

A bespoke breathwork session tailored to your individual needs and breath pattern. Sessions are 90 minutes including personal breath analysis, introduction to functional breathing techniques and an unique exercise program designed to meet your specific goals.

Group Session

Learn about the fundamentals of breathwork in a group session designed to teach you the skills needed to apply breathwork into your life. During an hour long session you will be guided through Oxygen Advantage® breathing exercises aimed at removing restrictive breathing patterns allowing you to unlock the powers of the breath.

Breathwork for Sports Performance

  • Efficient Oxygen Delivery

    With correct breathing techniques we can maximise the ability to get oxygen from the lungs, into the blood and then to the working muscles. Without blood flow, muscles can’t produce energy

  • Rest and Recovery

    Fast, shallow breathing during rest periods is inefficient and will increase recovery time. This type of breathing will also signal to opponents that you're tired and can't sustain the exercise intensity

  • Focus and Concentration

    High intensity exercise can create low oxygen levels in the blood which can affect blood supply to the brain. Breathing exercises will help maintain sufficient blood flood to the brain and enhance cognition

  • Cardiovascular Fitness

    The cardiovascular system is responsible for the delivery of blood flow to and from the tissues. Increasing the upper limits of the cardiovascular system will give you the ability to work harder, for longer. The Oxygen Advantage provides a novel strategy to provide these effects

  • Sleep

    Sleep is extremely important for not only health, but performance as well. Sleep is hugely effected by breathing due to the relationship between breathing and the autonomic nervous system. To achieve deep, restful sleep the body needs to be in a state of relaxation, the easiest way to activate this is through deep, slow breathing
