Advanced Breathwork Immersion
For experienced practitioners ready to go deeper. This program explores the subtle dimensions of breath — kumbhaka (retention), bandhas (energy locks), chakra pranayama, and the neuroscience of advanced breathwork states.
Choose from 3-day, 5-day, or 7-day formats depending on your schedule and depth of practice. Each format follows the same daily structure with progressively deeper techniques.
Immersion Curriculum
Six pillars of advanced breathwork mastery
Intense Techniques
Advanced pranayama practices including Bhastrika, Surya Bheda, and extended Kumbhaka sequences.
Mudras & Mantras
Integrate hand gestures and sacred sounds to deepen breath control and energetic awareness.
Bandhas & Kumbhaka
Master the three locks (Mula, Uddiyana, Jalandhara) combined with breath retention.
Chakra Pranayama
Direct breath and awareness through the energy centers for subtle body activation.
Nadi Pranayama
Purify the 72,000 energy channels through advanced alternate nostril techniques.
Neurology & Awareness
Understand the brain-breath connection — vagal tone, CO2 tolerance, and brainwave states.
Breathwork Teacher Training
