Performance Breathing Workshop @ Sweat Equity

Performance Breathing Series | Fundamental building blocks for excelling your breath practice

Calling all Endurance Runners, Hybrid Athletes, Martial Artists, and High-level performers under stress. No matter what you consider to be a hobby or profession, one universal truth is that the quality of your performance is dependent upon your Breath! Maintaining a breath practice has been greatly underestimated in modern times. This ancient art form can be the gateway to priming optimal performance output, OR the catalyst for disappointment and sub-optimal results.

Learn some of the fundamental ways to harness the power of the breath, and tap into your inner reservoir of endless focus, energy, endurance and strength!
