Biodynamic Breathwork
Guided by the creator of the wildly popular worldwide modality, Giten Tonkov.
BioDynamic Breathwork utilizes Deep Conscious Connected Breathing, Conscious Unwinding Spinal Movement, Self-Bodywork, Sound (vocal expression), Emotional expression and Meditation to safely release long held trauma from our physical tissues. This system is proven to be very successful over the years of in-person and virtual workshops and trainings.
The BioDynamic Breathwork & Trauma Release System® (BBTRS®) 6-Element approach empowers your body’s natural process for healing from start to finish, releasing chronic tension and restructuring your systems on a cellular level.
BBTRS® calls on the power of all of the body’s systems. Our 6-Element approach supports your body’s unique needs at any given moment. This creates a flexible and dynamic experience that goes deeper than traditional therapies.
