What is The Breathe in Paris School®?
Have you ever thought about becoming a Breathwork facilitator? Maybe you've experienced Breathwork yourself and want to share it with others. Maybe you're already working in wellness and want to expand what you offer. Or maybe you're thinking about changing careers and starting something of your own, but you're not quite sure where to begin.
That's why I created The Breathe in Paris School®.
Over four months, I'll teach you my method and give you the knowledge, practical experience, and business tools to start working as a Breathwork facilitator.
You'll learn how to guide individuals, couples, and groups, understand the science behind Breathwork, work safely with different people, and develop your own teaching style.
We'll also work on the practical side of becoming an entrepreneur: finding your clients, defining your services, setting your prices, building your brand, and understanding how to run your business.
You don't need to have everything figured out before you start. That's what the training is for.
And you won't be doing it alone. I'll be there throughout the program, teaching, guiding, challenging, and encouraging you as you learn.
My Mission with The School
I went on to train with Jon Paul and later with Dan Brulé, eventually developing The Breathe in Paris® Method.
Since then, I've introduced thousands of people to Breathwork through my classes, private sessions, and collaborations. I also co-wrote Breathwork: Respirez pour changer with Émilie Veyretout. What began as a personal discovery became a completely new direction in my professional life.
In 2021, I created The Breathe in Paris School® because I wanted to share everything I'd learned, not only about Breathwork, but also about working with people and building a business around something you truly believe in.
I know what it's like to change direction, start something new, and wonder whether you can actually make it work. That's why mentoring the next generation of Breathwork practitioners means so much to me.
I've spent most of my life working with people and emotions. From performing in school musicals to spending 27 years in the fashion industry, I've always loved creating experiences that make people feel something.
But somewhere along the way, I realized that despite everything I'd accomplished professionally, I wasn't happy. I was stressed, angry, and disconnected from myself, and it was beginning to affect my relationships.
That's when I started exploring a different path. I discovered Reiki, meditation, and coaching, and eventually became a Reiki Master and started working with clients.
But something was still missing. In January 2018, I attended my first Breathwork session with Jon Paul Crimi in Malibu, California. I had no idea what to expect, but that experience changed something in me. I'd never felt anything
quite like it.
Let Me Tell You More
The Breathe in Paris School® is a four-month, 170-hour professional training program where I'll teach you how to guide individual, couple, and group Breathwork sessions using my method.
We'll work together through theory, practical exercises, daily Breathwork sessions, role-playing, and real-life situations. You'll learn how to understand your clients, create a safe environment, manage group dynamics, and develop your own confidence as a teacher. You'll also learn how to build your business, from finding your ideal clients and pricing your services to creating your brand and promoting your work.
But this isn't something you learn simply by reading a manual. You'll practice, make mistakes, ask questions, receive feedback, and learn from the other students. I'll be there throughout the training to teach you, challenge you, and help you develop your own way of working.
By the end of the program, my goal is for you to have the knowledge, experience, and practical tools to begin offering Breathwork professionally, whether you want to start your own business or incorporate it into the work you're already doing.
Is This Right for You?
Maybe you've been thinking about changing careers for a while. You enjoy your work, but you can't imagine doing it for the rest of your life. Or perhaps you're already working in wellness and want to offer something more to your clients. Maybe you've experienced Breathwork yourself and thought, I'd love to do this for other people.
You don't need to have a business already, and you certainly don't need to know exactly what your future will look like. But you do need to be genuinely interested in Breathwork, willing to work on yourself, and ready to dedicate time and energy to learning how to guide others responsibly.
This is an intensive training, and I take it seriously. You'll be learning in a small group, sharing personal experiences, practicing with one another, and stepping outside your comfort zone. There will be moments when you feel confident and others when you question yourself. That's part of learning something new.
If you're looking for a new professional direction, want to bring Breathwork into your existing work, or simply feel ready to take this interest further, I'd love to hear your story and see whether the School is right for you.
