Welcome, I am Eleanor Mann, director of The School Of Breathwork.
My journey with Breathwork began in 2004, with a dynamic breathwork session that sparked an immediate fascination and commitment to exploring the potential of the breath.
I met my teacher Alakh Analda in 2009, and trained with her, going on to complete a Diploma in Rebirthing Breathwork Mastery. Alongside this I hold a BA of Soc Sci in Counselling, a BA in Psychology (Hons), and a Grad Dip of Child Centred Play Therapy.
Having shared Breathwork with thousands of people around the world, I now bring all of this practice wisdom to guiding others to be incredible Breathwork practitioners. It is an honour to connect with you here.

Besides long term private breathwork practise, she has facilitated many hundreds of Groups, Weekends and Six Day Workshops in all parts of Australia, and also overseas, in Rebirthing Breathwork with Chakras, Meditation and Yoga and Kriya Yoga training.
