In the last few years it has become more mainstream, and recognized as a significant tool for healing and transformation. Through these training you are embarking on a journey to mastery; to become the author of your life experience, to step into your greatness and to learn skills of compassionate leadership and transformation, no matter the situation.

Whether you’re a beginner, a competent facilitator already, or on a transformational journey these trainings will meet you where you are and take you to the level of mastery that you are looking for. You can attend these weekends for self healing, or to become a teacher of Breathwork.

  • There is no alliance for Breathwork unfortunately that regulates the trainers and trainings. Marlize has been studying under her teacher, David Elliott, for eight years. She assisted him during that time, and led several of his trainings for him.
