Hello, I'm Eleanor Mann, Founder and Director of The School of Breathwork.
I knew I’d become a breathworker during my very first Breathwork Session, two decades ago, and I’m still in awe of the breath today. I trained for years with the founder of Breathwork Mastery (RBM), Alakh Analda, and now bring that lineage to The School of Breathwork.
Breathwork Mastery is a gentle, parasympathetic practice that helps you integrate what’s held, at a body and breath level, and live the way you intend. It’s an honour to welcome you.

Study an International Certificate in Breathwork Mastery
Offered in partnership with course founder and copyright holder Alakh Analda.
The International Certificate in Breathwork Mastery has been offered globally since 1998, is recognised by the Australian Breathwork Association and meets standards outlined by the Global Breathwork Alliance.
I've seen two types of people come to breathwork.
The first has one or two sessions and resolves their main challenge. Breathwork becomes somewhere they return to when they need a shift.
And the second? I know the look in their eyes the moment they come out of their first session. The fascination, the wonder, the enthusiasm, the knowing. They ARE breathworkers, and know instantly their world has changed forever. Guided now by their breath: a place of refuge, of wisdom, of power, trust and safety.
And if you’re here, you most likely resonate.
Becoming a practitioner is a two-year journey: your own personal foundation, the theory, and supported client practice, until you can hold deep space for others with confidence and trust.
You’ll learn to use your breath to integrate past experiences held onto and stored in your body, and create a clear and positive relationship with life. By the time you graduate, you’ll trust the process of life, and trust the process of others.
Meet Your Trainers

Eleanor Mann
Founder and Director, Theory & Knowledge (Stage Two)
Two decades of practice, training breathwork practitioners around the world.

Jessica Miller
Stage One Trainer
An accredited Breathwork Mastery practitioner and trainer who has worked alongside Eleanor since 2015, bringing deep care and presence to your unfolding mastery with the breath.

Sarah Mann
Stage One Trainer, Trainer for the US training, and Stage Three Coordinator for the US
An accredited Breathwork Mastery practitioner who has worked alongside Eleanor since 2012, and trained as a Practitioner Trainer two years ago, with a deeply attuned synergy and trust for Breathwork built over hundreds of retreats and groups.
Together they hold a collective 50+ years of experience, facilitating as a trio since 2013.
One year ago,
Ciara graduated from the ICIBM.
She recently wrote to me: “I’ve sat for well over 100 people in small groups plus at least 25 one-to-ones, in person. Never did I ever imagine that this time last year.”
When she started, she shared: “I discovered this style of breathwork at a time when I felt lost, completely out of alignment with my sense of purpose, yet filled with a deep desire for my daily life to reflect more of what at the time I could only dream was possible. Through my journey I have found what I have been seeking my whole life: a deeper connection and compassionate understanding for myself, my children and others.”
So how did she go from “lost” to a thriving practice?
You might be thinking Ciara must live in a big city, or have a large social media following. Nope. She lives in rural Ireland, and only had a personal social media with friends and family when she graduated.
The truth is, people are seeking out highly trained, confident practitioners. And the depth of personal work we do in training draws people who are ready for that same depth. They can feel it.
One year later: over 125 people sat for, and her own breathwork space at home. A life she describes as “kinder, gentler, easier, content and often fun.”
I wonder what your first year could look like?

You don't need to be the second type to begin.
If you’re the first (here for a session or two, to shift something and return when you need to), you’re welcome to simply experience breathwork: 1:1 sessions, small groups and retreats.
And there’s a third type I’ve come to recognise: those simply drawn to the work, not sure they want to practise, just that they want to go deeper for themselves. You don’t need to know you want to be a Breathwork Practitioner to be here. You can join the training for your own becoming, even if you don’t yet know where it leads.
