Breathwork, cold exposure, somatic healing, and heartfelt connection — addressing transformation at cellular, emotional, cognitive, and relational levels.

Words from 500+ graduates
What stays — long after the training ends.
Changed my life
This training changed my whole life. I walked in with one regular yoga class and two years later opened a wellness studio, held 18 retreats, and just returned from leading my own 10-day retreat in Bali. I've done trainings costing $12k and nothing has compared.
Live through breath
Alex's guidance showed me a new way to live through the breath. Doors have opened that I didn't even know were there — I'm truly grateful.
Best training
This was by far the best training I have ever taken. Alex is so in tune with his students and provides exactly what we need. Just do it.
Major breakthrough
I had a major breakthrough and released major blocks during this training. The process is exciting, fun, and dynamic — we built a community. The ice bath gives you energy to face your fears.
Transformed
I came with no expectations and left transformed — I didn't change, I became myself. Alex helped us open up and welcome all parts of ourselves. The best decision of my life.
A place to begin
I was born almost without breath, and this training offered an invitation to meet myself truly — in my breath, body, and being. I found a place to begin again.
Safe container
Alex held such a safe container that allowed me to be my authentic self with everyone. The trajectory of my life is now onwards and upwards.
If you doubt, do it
Very practical yet I gained so much knowledge on the power of breath, ice, and authentic relating. Almost 8 months later I'm hosting my own successful breathwork circles and workshops.
Value for life
A pivotal step in my self-development journey. The tools, awareness, and knowledge I gained are a value for life. I've gained so much confidence in helping others.
A profound journey
A profound journey of transformation built on rigorous instruction. Among the most transformative experiences of my life — better prepared professionally and personally enriched.
Authentic and bonding
I can't remember a time where I had so much fun, learned so much, and had such deep authentic bonding all at once. Great facilitator, great experiences, beautiful tribe.
