Testimonials

Catarina's breathwork class was an incredible and profound experience. I felt that she made the class feel safe and held in the space. The breathwork was a powerful practice of being with discomfort and how moving through that can be a portal for processing, integrating and clarity. After the breathwork there was time for (optional) discussion of everyone's experience. Catarina shared a lot of helpful information about Conscious Connected Breathing, what to expect and aftercare. I walked away feeling like I was buzzing, energetically and physically exfoliated, and with an expanded capacity for being present.

I find myself lucky to have crossed paths with Catarina. She has an amazing studio where you already feel calm and relaxed as soon as you enter from the door. In my first time, I initially went to her studio to practice yoga as that’s what we usually do, but for some reason that day I wanted to try breath work and I’m so glad I did. It was an incredible experience opened a new door for me the very next day which was almost unbelievable for me. Everyone’s experience is different but I resolved something I’ve been wanting to resolve for a very long time. Catarina has an amazing personality, she is a bit magical :) and the kindest person. I can’t wait to attend more sessions. Thank you Catarina!

The experience of breathwork is impossible to describe with words, but I will say that I experienced an intense flow of energy coursing through my body and a deep sense of peace. This was only my second time doing this type of practice and I'm sure every experience will be different. I am extremely grateful for this experience. Catarina has a wonderful presence. She does an excellent job of making one feel welcome and safe.
