GRIT Breathwork is inspired in Conscious Connected Breathing CCB, an hour-long session with the rhythm of the breath used in this technique, influences neural activity, enhances memory recall and expands emotional awareness. It helps to release suppressed blockages from the autonomic nervous system.
We train you to be a Breathwork Mentor and trainer, by teaching you how the knowledge of breathing supports us in dealing holistically, consciously and clearly with the stresses of life’s challenges. Our focus is to bring mindfulness to the beauty and depth of mentoring skills: being present, caring, compassionate, knowledgeable and ethical.
“GRIT” also stands for GROW-RESOURCE-INSPIRE-TRANSFORM
GRIT Breathwork has been created with the intention of bringing harmony, meaning and purpose into building lively, caring, nourishing and loving relationships in all areas of life.
GRIT Breathwork is a somatic therapy process that aligns us with living what we teach, revealing and healing addictive habits and embedded traumas in the body, mind and emotion. It is inspired by Conscious Connected Breathing (CCB).
Our training is tailor-made to suit the style and the needs of our clients. We take our community of freedom, love, respect and vision with us wherever we teach.
This path can support you to learn the skills of a professional Breathwork practitioner and trainer, whether you are motivated by personal seeking or career goals.
Inspiring the leader within, our training includes a strong business component that prepares our Breathwork Mentors to practice and offer their best to private and business clients, as well as the possibility of assisting Viola and co-leading in different cities worldwide.
We offer supervision and mentoring online. We also acknowledge and accredit the modules completed with other mutually agreed certified training centres.
We have twenty-eight years of experience working internationally in the field of breathwork, mentoring, coaching and psychotherapy
