Breathwork for all!
Join breathwork experts, Nicholas Menard and Dulce (creator of ‘Mandala Vinyasa’), for this unique training to help discover the power and potential of your own breath.
Our breath is the gateway to the infinite potential that lies within us. It is a clear window into how we are showing up from moment-to-moment, as well as a tool to change the state, perception, thoughts, actions and reality we are currently experiencing.
This holistic training course explores the integral link between the Elements and the breath. It is suitable for teachers looking to add breathwork to their classes and for anyone curious in exploring the practice.
What is Elemental Breathwork?
Elemental Breathwork was created by Nicholas Menard as an informative yet practical system designed to integrate various aspects of the breath, the Elements and our psyche to create a cohesive balanced self. We achieve this through an understanding of the connection between the nervous system, breath, and the different Elements, and how they connect and show-up within us all. We will look at our unique anatomical makeup and how it relates to our breathing function, and how we can consciously direct our breath to shift our experience in real-time. Elemental Breathwork consists of 4 modalities related to the elements (Earth, Water, Fire, Air). Each modality is driven by a different intention and in turn provides a different feeling.
Breathwork is a great tool for those who experience anxiety, depression, difficulty focusing, low energy, poor sleep, indigestion and other ailments relating to imbalance in the body.

Meet your Teacher
Nicholas Menard is here to have a positive impact on the world and create magic in every interaction. He has spent the past decade diving into various healing modalities to seek ways to reconnect, heal and create harmony in a world that seems increasingly disconnected. His mission is to discover and provide tools for each individual to uncover the answers to that riddle.
Nicholas’ passion for Breathwork dates back to a session that led him to cry for the first time since his father passed away 13 years prior. He experienced its deep effect on the mental, emotional, spiritual and physical level. He now seeks to lead and share the breath with all those who are looking to explore its wide-ranging, impactful powers.
Nicholas is joined by Dulce (creator of Mandala Vinyasa) and Carlos Mundalah (musician and sound therapist).
