Looking for something more than a typical keynote?

Infuse your event with presence, energy, and connection.

Powerful breathwork & community-building experiences for conferences, summits, team off-sites, company retreats, corporate events and festivals.

TRUSTED BY

The world of events has changed.

BREATH + CONNECTION = MAGIC

Now that remote work is the norm, bringing people together in person is one of the biggest investments you can make.

A room of people sitting still, listening to one person talk, is no longer enough. People want something they can't get on a screen.

A Breath Connection experience is one way to supercharge your conference, summit, team off-site or company retreat with that palpable sense of inspiration, energy and belonging. You know it when you feel it, and it leaves people and organizations changed.

In 60 to 90 minutes, a room of scattered, screen-and-travel-fatigued strangers is alchemized into a community that is present, awake, and genuinely connected: to themselves, to each other, and to the core theme of your event.



When people breathe and move together, their heart rates and nervous systems begin to synchronize. It's biologically measurable, and it creates a felt sense of belonging that no cheesy icebreaker can manufacture.

Connection is the #1 reason people come back, and the thing most corporate events do worst.


51%

say successful networking is what makes them want to return; it is the single strongest driver of re-attendance.

Freeman Trends Report, 2025


31%

find networking awkward.

Another 34% find it too salesy, and 25% don't know how to start a conversation.

Freeman Trends Report, 2025


96%

of organizers have no one who owns networking, so connection defaults to unstructured free time.

Freeman Trends Report, 2025

Nearly half of attendees say meeting new people and bonding with their team is a primary reason they show up (Hilton, 2026). But left to unstructured free time, most folks cluster with the people they already know, and others are left on the sidelines.

Physical engagement and wellbeing is not an extra. It defines the success of your event.


  • 67% of attendees report feeling less engaged when an agenda doesn't build in real restoration (Hilton, 2026)


  • Learning that engages the body and more than one sense produces measurably better recall than the same material delivered through only words and visuals. (Shams & Seitz, Trends in Cognitive Sciences, 2008)


  • Leading event planners are now "Designing for Joy" i.e., treating emotional outcomes like passion, awe and excitement as real KPIs. (IMEX, 2026 Trends)


Four key elements of our experiences

THE BREATH CONNECTION EXPERIENCE

Breath & Embodiment

Structured, meaningful reflection to help attendees meet strangers and form real relationships.


Live Music

An immersive, unforgettable atmosphere that engages all the senses.

Your group will walk away with:

THE RESULTS

  • Breath practices they can take home and integrate into their daily life

  • Closer connections with others and a deeper sense of belonging

  • Inspiration and genuine energy for the rest of the event

  • An understanding the human nervous system and how to use breath to meet stress and intense situations with greater ease

Every element is custom-designed for your event.

YOUR EXPERIENCE

We design to your theme, your industry, your culture, and the purpose of the event. We use language that will resonate with your people and set them up for exactly what you hope them to experience.

We build practice variations so total beginners and experienced practitioners are equally met, and we adapt to the space you have: fully seated and fully standing options, no mats, no changing clothes, no downward dog.

Whether it's forty people in a hotel ballroom or a thousand in a theater, we meet every audience where they are.

Choose the moment you want to transform.

YOUR FORMAT


Open your event by helping everyone arrive fully present. A powerful shared arrival that sets the tone, names the intention, and turns an audience into a community from the get-go.

Opening Ceremony


A full keynote slot, delivered as an embodied experience rather than a talk. A theme of your choice becomes unforgettable.

Keynote Experience


A deeper, smaller-group session with more room for reflection, dialogue, and practices people can take home.

Breakout or Workshop


A closing that helps people consolidate what they learned, name what they're taking with them, and leave connected rather than scattered.

Closing Integration


Full Retreat Design & Facilitation

Multi-day design and facilitation for leadership off-sites, team retreats and company gatherings. Includes business strategy, creative-problem solving, innovation and team-building in addition to Breath Connection experiences.
