This transformative experience has made me not only a master of my breath but a skilled and confident teacher
I am thrilled to express my gratitude for Master Your Breath Academy, a vital extension of the Master Your Breath course. While MYB taught me the intricacies of breathwork, the Academy was a game-changer, providing in-depth theory and hands-on teaching experience. It enabled me to seamlessly transition from personal practice to confidently teaching breathwork to individuals and groups.
MYB Academy addressed my challenge of developing a teaching strategy and offering a structured approach to creating diverse courses. The live workshops were a highlight, fostering a dynamic learning environment, and the online sessions, while virtual, provided practical, hands-on activities that immediately applied the learned concepts.
What sets Master Your Breath Academy apart is its commitment to bridging theory and practice, ensuring participants not only understand but can confidently teach breathwork. This transformative experience has made me not only a master of my breath but a skilled and confident teacher. Thank you, Master Your Breath Academy, for enriching my teaching practice beyond measure.

More Energy & Less Stress - More Ease & Clarity of mind
Since taking the breathing course with Tom, I have incorporated many of the little tools and exercises that Tom shared with us.
I take "breath snacks" throughout the day regularly and connect to my heart. I am more aware of the quality of my breath in daily life and don't feel so stressed out any more and go through the day with more ease and consciousness. There is nothing changed outside, but something is definitely changing inside of me.
I also have been steady in taking cold showers! Still can't believe it! My mind negotiates every time, but I like how I feel after it. It brings me more energy and clearness of mind.
Tom's passion to share his knowledge, his calmness and patience, the way he pays attention to details so we could properly understand the techniques, and his real concern for our progress made the course a great experience.

Benefits of proper breathing
You breathe approximately 15-25 thousand times a day - every day. If your body knows how to breathe with great quality, each breath brings you closer to your goals. If, however, your breathing quality is habitually poor, each breath may increase any symptoms you might suffer from.
Better Communication
With optimal breathing and a balanced state of mind and body, listening and hearing the other becomes easy and "reacting" unnecessary.
Strong Heart
Deep, rhythmic breathing works hand in hand with the heart and creates a pressure effect that support the blood flow back to the heart.
Enjoy Better Sleep
Impaired breathing affects you 24 hours a day - also while sleeping. Breathing through your mouth may contribute to snoring and reduce the daily rest and repair happening during sleep.

Your Lungs are opened and closed by the action of muscles - and muscles can be trained. Optimal control over breathing muscles gives you advantages when moving, thinking and may slow down aging.
Experience Less Pain
Intensity and quality of the pain you experience can be adjusted through the way you relate to these sensations via your breath.

Increased endurance
Rhythmic, slow breathing creates a flow during exercise and allows for optimal circulation, oxygen supply and energy production in the whole body.
Quicker Recovery
