About this Event
Dive in for a 60 minute immersive guided flow to focus, relax, explore feelings, and be present. This class teaches breath, posture, and energy regulation in an accessible format enjoyed by beginners to advanced practitioners. You may or may not break a sweat, but this is less about strenuous physical excercise and more about physically connecting into your body. Testimonials from recent class attendees:
“This was the perfect way to start a week."
"I feel so good! I unlocked the energy I needed ."
“After class I got my best sleep as an adult.”
“I feel so zen. My body went into a trance.”
Breathwork training is like a gym session for your autonomic nervous system, the part of you that is most tested on a daily basis in the modern world. During the flow we activate and train our body's parasympathetic and sympathetic response system, tapping deep into consciousness and using visualizations to make new connections. Over time, training the connection with our body and breath provides tools and habits to flow with life, so we can accept more and resist less. It's also highly effective for improving heart rate variability. My style of breathwork includes eastern and western practices that are designed for busy modern urban humans...delivered in a fun, energizing, and authentic space. The class is delivered following trauma-informed practices.
During class you can expect to spend about 50% of the time standing or sitting, and 50% laying down. Bring a cusheon and blanket or mat with you to class. If you're not comfortable sitting on the ground and need a chair, please get in touch with me before class so that we can accomodate.

A note from your Advanced Breathwork Instructor (Brett Mackey): This class is a container for you to explore yourself in a fun, light-hearted, deeply meaningful, and trauma-informed way. Breathwork, meditation, and energy practices continue to change my life for the better, and I love sharing these practices with others. We're all on this journey together, and there is so much positive good we can do for Chicago by increasing these practices. Thanks for your interest!
