My purpose

We can transform how we feel and think by learning how to breathe in simple ways. It has worked for millions and millions of people around the world, stretching back thousands of years, including me: helping me become a better father, a better husband and a better person. That is why I have dedicated the over 20 years to helping people find natural ways of restoring and improving their strength, health and happiness.

My focus now is on teaching people how to become skilled, and compassionate, breathwork teachers.
