JUST WATCH THIS
and feel our vibe
IT’S TIME FOR A NEW STANDARD
Breathwork is becoming increasingly more popular by the day. And that’s great news! However, this also causes obvious challenges: everyone seems to be a breath coach nowadays, quick-fix certification programs are popping up everywhere, and this causes a lot of unclarity and unsafety in the scene.
So if you want to stand out in this massive crowd of breathwork coaches/facilitators, you’re going to need an edge. And that edge should not be sought in fancy social media posts, marketing trauma releases or claiming that breath can heal anything.
It should be sought in a foundation of:
– philosophical principles,
– scientific understanding
– and practical tools.
THIS IS WHAT WE STAND FOR
MASTERY
We aim for constant evolution in our quest to serve the world. Mastery is not a state that can be attained but a way of life that allows for endless learning and improving craftsmanship.
INTEGRITY
We know our place and work with humility. We make sure we know our stuff so that we can keep people safe. We only act in alignment with our core values.
HUMAN CONNECTION
In a world where AI can do almost anything better than us, we focus on what AI can not do: deeply connect through our authentic, imperfectly perfect humanness.
OUR INNOVATIVE, FULL-IMMERSION EDUCATION WILL HELP YOU:
Understand and explain any breathing technique out there
Stop getting lost in all the different methods our there. Every breathing technique works based on the same core principles. Once you master these principles you will be able to freely move through the dense and chaotic breathwork scene with clarity and grace.
Enjoy learning physiology, anatomy, and the nervous system
Breathwork is one of the only modalities that can both be felt and understood. Even if you think you’re bad at understanding science, our education program will make it fun and easy to see the deeper layers of the wonderous world of breath science.
Innovate your own personalized breathing techniques
Once you understand the principles and theory, you’re free to create specialized breathing techniques, tailor-make inner journeys of breath and create coaching sessions that are as special as they are effective.
Assess, improve and enhance clients’ breathing quality
Many people experience stress-related discomfort with their breathing. By seeing breathwork as an innate skill, you can help people breathe freely and regulate themselves in relation to their stressful lives.
Guide Breakthrough Experiences for emotional release and healing
Our revolutionary “Gear System”, Bodywork and Spaceholding practices will allow you to facilitate deep inner journeys that allow for beautiful releases…while actually keeping people safe in every way.
Coach with integrity, quality and safety.
Let’s be honest: Most breathworkers out there don’t really know what they’re doing. There are a lot of ego-driven, mind-blowing breathing sessions out there that take things to (and often over) the edge of what is SAFE.
OUR PEOPLE
a close tribe of “outliers” from 40+ different countries
Breathing coaches, yoga teachers, medical doctors, osteopaths, physical therapists, performance coaches, fitness trainers, nutritionists, life coaches, spiritual teachers, biohackers, corporate leaders and eccentric breath enthusiasts.
Some come to this work with a lifetime of breathwork experience, others come with nothing more than a newfound puppy love for breathwork. The one thing that ties us together – and the only prerequisite to joining – is enthusiasm, open mindedness and a willingness to question everything.
TAKE THEIR WORD FOR IT
they know what they’re talking about
The Breathwork Masterclass has been transformative in many ways, both on a physical, emotional, mental as well as a spiritual level. Yes we learned, yes we experienced, but it was so much more than ‘just a masterclass’. It was a journey, a profound upgrade of both my breathing & body knowledge, as well as an upgrade of life in general. It has left me with many new insights, thoughts, feelings, perspectives and inspiration. Kasper is a great teacher, filled with amazingly valuable knowledge and lots of silly jokes, he’s a walking encyclopedia as it comes to the breath, the nervous system and optimizing your human experience in this world.

From a full download of principles, theory, and science to the hands-on experiential aspects within the group dynamic and beyond, there isn’t anything this masterclass is missing. Kasper pours on the breathwork knowledge, then integrates it through actual practices and even takes it a step further by taking it into the lab to see it all in action with a full dissection of the lungs, heart, and more. Name another course where you get to do that? I don’t think there is one. In addition, Kasper creates a learning environment that is so fun and opens up deep levels of connection, sharing, and group intimacy that cannot be forced yet comes so naturally.

KASPER VAN DER MEULEN
“The Breathwork Biohacker” will be your teacher
My work is devoted to teaching the core principles at the source, without getting lost in the details of methods, techniques and protocols. To lift the veil and fade the boundaries, and to connect the dots between ancient practice, modern science, human performance, personal healing and expanding consciousness.
Over the past decade I’ve explored and experimented with every human optimization technique I could find. I’ve been honoured to work closely with some of the key influencers in this new wave of modern, science-based breathing. I’ve been fortunate to learn from experts, scientists, doctors, and teachers from many disciplines about how breathwork relates to wellness, consciousness, performance, and human optimization. I’ve also applied these principles to thousands of humans, by teaching large groups, and by working in a close 1-1 setting with elite performers, special operators, top athletes, and the likes.
“Master” is not a definite state we can attain, it is a path we can follow. One of continuous questioning, deeper understanding and masterful application of knowledge and skill. I am certainly no master, for the more I learn, the more I realise how much there is to know, and how far I still have to go. I have dedicated my life to that process.
I am a teacher, and I want to share my experience with people that can truly use it. This is not a quick-certificate weekend, or a pre-defined linear course, this is a deep dive into a creative process of self-development as a human, as a coach, as a breather.
THE MISSION
We’re out to change the world
BRIDGING THE GAP
For many years, breathwork was either a medical intervention that was only used by people with respiratory ailments, or a spiritual practice that was often seen as vague and woo by the Western world. But now we live in a time where science and spirituality can walk hand in hand to empower our modern lives. It is our mission to respect and explore the depths of the spiritual practice, while explaining, clarifying and demystifying this practice with modern Western language .
EMPOWERING HUMANS
Every day countless people realise that conscious breathing is one of the most powerful remedies for our modern challenges. Every single breath allows an individual to change their state, and face the world as a more prepared human.
At Breathwork Masterclass, we are dedicated to empower as many people as possible to become more self aware, to take charge of their nervous system and to be more equipped to live a life of health and purpose. Because through each person that becomes self-empowered, the world becomes a better place.
SAVING OUR LUNGS
The more you understand biology, the more you see that it is all connected. With every breath we take we exchange billions of particles with our outside environment. Breathwork – and health as a whole – is completely dependent on the health of our environment. Every single bit of oxygen that our cells use to produce every single bit of our life energy, was made by plants. Mainly plants in the rainforests and plants in the ocean (plankton). It is an integral part of our mission to help save, preserve and restore these most valuable natural resources. We donate to Ocean Cleanup, AmazonWatch and OneTree Planted and organise raffles to raise money for other charities.
