Opening to the Light through Breathwork

2-hours movement, breathwork and lecture – all levels

How does the way we breathe affect our stress level, anxiety, quality of sleep, and even our relationships? Breath renews, energises and heals. The effect of Max’s breathing techniques is a profound sense of calm, mental clarity and a release of physical and emotional tension. Max has been teaching breathwork to tens of thousands of people around the world for 30 years, and this has given him a unique skillset and perspective on the intimate relationship between our breath and buried emotions.

It is the quintessential tool to begin the healing of anxiety, panic attacks, and grief. This is why the breathing techniques that he teaches are now being used by therapists and psychologists in their sessions. These breathing exercises are accessible to everyone.

Class will include a lecture, simple but immediately effective breathing exercises and guided meditation.

Breathwork and Vitality

2-hours movement, breathwork and lecture – all levels

There’s a time for talking, and there’s a time to let our breath work for us and go beyond what we can rationally grasp to release our congested emotions from stress, depression, anxiety, or PTS. Emotions affect our breathing, for example: crying and laughing. But did you know that changing the pattern of our breathing influences our emotions? Innovative, simple techniques, and incredible results. The practices you will learn in this workshop take you to a calm and inspired state with new depths of insight.

This workshop will include lecture, standing and seated breathing exercises. Bring writing materials. (Not advised if you are pregnant)

Expanding Presence

2-hours lecture, movement and breathwork – all levels

It is said that the human being has a powerful guiding voice within; it is the voice of our intuition and wisdom. But this voice is commonly drowned out by the noise in our mind. The noise is often caused from chaotic or congested emotions from stress, depression, PTS, or anxiety.

In this workshop we will begin with a talk by Max, then move into a gentle breath-initiated movement sequence. In the second half of the workshop we will focus on floor postures and breathwork to release the mind and body from long-held emotions that impede our happiness and our ability to sleep well. You will learn essential steps in how to guide yourself to alleviate stress and anxiety through this practice.

Connection and Joy

2-hours seminar

This seminar offers an inspiring and insightful talk by Max based on the ideas of his book, There is No App for Happiness, followed by essential internal technologies for transformation. Max will ask a series of questions, then you will be asked to write down the answers, and these answers will illuminate your inner life. This work, simple in its nature, astonishes those who take the class. The insight you will gain cannot be purchased or found within a book or university. This seminar may help you to see life differently, and even course-correct your trajectory. This is not a movement class. Be sure to have writing materials on hand.

Carrying the Light Forward

2-hours movement, breathwork and visualisation – all levels

In this class, through safe and accessible yoga movement, you will experience opening the chest and shoulders, but the main focus is on opening the heart center to release the light currently trapped within you. This will be done with both physical work, breathwork, and a special visualisation.

We will also discuss the integration of the summer sessions and how we can continue forward with new strength and inspiration.
