Class Offerings
holotropic breathwork with clementine
Explore a deeper relationship with self through the power of conscious breath while receiving energetic support from a seasoned facilitator and healing practitioner.
Holotropic breathing is a fast-paced, moderately hyperventilative breath that’s done while in a relaxed, reclined position. Breathing in this conscious way promotes an altered state through which release, healing, and unexpected transformations can occur. While each person’s experiences is uniquely their own, holotropic breath is a surprisingly simple yet powerful technique for accessing deep places within your body, psyche, and experience.
Each monthly drop-in class begins with an introduction to holotropic breath and an idea of what to expect during class, a warm-up check in, and a brief guided meditation to prepare for the breathing session which lasts between 45 and 75 minutes depending on the energy of the class. As you drop back into a natural rhythm afterwards, there’s space for light sharing and re-integration.
Current Scheduled Dates:
