Trainee Testimonials

"Jean’s 10 week conscious connected breathwork course has been the highlight of my year. His authenticity and years of experience inspire one to delve deeper into the magic that is our breath and in doing so, connecting with our own authentic self. From the community, to the breath techniques, the music and everything in between. I’m so grateful for everything and cannot recommend it enough. Thank you Jean!"

~ Bronwyn | March 2022 ~

Jean's Conscious Connected Breathwork mentorship program was incredibly illuminating and completely changed my relationship with breath. His tuition is compassionate, wise, intuitive and wonderfully practical. I learnt a great deal about myself and the science of breath and on completion of the program felt confident in guiding sessions for individuals and groups. Amazing teacher, beautiful program. Thank you, Jean.

~ Louis | March 2022 ~

I want to express my deepest gratitude for Jean for being my teacher during the Breathwork Facilitator Workshop in Cape Town early 2024. Jean is more than just a Breathwork teacher; he's a mentor in his own right.

I got a taste of his knowledge firsthand and am truly grateful for it.

It's evident that Breathwork isn't just a practice for him but rather a way of life. He creates a sacred space where each of us feels secure and held, allowing for deep personal transformation. I feel incredibly fortunate to have found such a wise and compassionate guide on my own journey. Now I can't wait to spread the ripples of what I've learned from Jean, knowing the impact it will have on others.

~ Jakob | March 2024 ~

When I applied to do my Breathwork studies, I did so because of an inner calling. I was excited to learn the foundations of Breathwork after having sat in a few Breathwork sessions with Jean before, but I really had no idea of the profound journey I (and actually we) were about to go on. Jean is fluent in all things Breathwork, but beyond that he has infused his life experience and expertise in the field to put together an all-encompassing workshop that really took us into the depths of our conscious and unconscious worlds. I couldn’t wait for Tuesdays and Wednesdays to sit and learn. Jean was born to teach, and he does so effortlessly and in such a way that the information weaves its wisdom into every inch of your body. Our group in itself was magic, and that is testament to the calibre of people that were drawn to Jean and his teachings. Thank you thank you. This journey with the breath through you has been so shifting and transformational, and I am deeply grateful for this journey with you Jean.

~ Trace | March 2024 ~

The depth of Jean’s understanding pours through him as he teaches. It was profound to just sit in his presence, as well as with the group that he chose to teach. I thought I was being called to learn breathwork but really I was being called to meet the furthest reaches of my being, of all of our beings. This is what Jean allows.

~ Robbie | March 2024 ~

I have experienced and trained with many teachers and mentors: the teachers and mentors who have been most influential in my life, have been the ones who speak to my heart. Jean is one of those mentors and teachers. He speaks to the understanding of the heart which goes beyond the mind and lands in a way of true understanding. Jean is the type of human being who lives consciously and walks his talk; he is authentic, genuine, deeply knowledgeable and displays such beautiful open-heartedness in his teaching that it resonates in a deep and heart-felt way. Jean’s experience and knowledge in the field of breathwork is stunning to behold and I am deeply grateful to have been part of Jean’s conscious connected breathwork training.
