Transformative Breathwork experiences
Breathwork in Christchurch
What is Breathwork?
A conscious connected breathing method that takes us into an altered state of consciousness, from which you can:
Regulate your nervous system (stress relief, anxiety reduction)
Release stored tension + trauma (physical/emotional pain)
Repattern limiting beliefs (mental + spiritual reprogramming)
Connect to your deeper wisdom (Gain clarity)
Feel self-empowered (you are your own healer)
John's approach includes conscious-connected breathwork, bodywork, the Human Design system, and indigenous practices.
How will breathwork help me?
Talking about your experiences or emotions will only get you so far.
Talk therapy has its time and place.
But eventually, you need to allow that experience or emotion to be processed by your body.
This is where breathwork comes in.
A practical, embodied solution, where the results are tangible and accessible. No longer feeling like you're carrying a weight, the fog lifting, clarity and deeper understanding. It's all there
Breathwork is an opportunity for us to shift that experience through our body and release it on a cellular level.
Working with me will give you that resolution and clarity you've been searching for.

Pricing system
I work on a Gift Culture payment system for my 90min 1:1 sessions, where you contribute an amount that is honest and reasonable for your financial situation.
This is not a charity. It's not a bargain. It's a system built on mutual trust. A trust that you will pay the best you can, and that I will trust you to do so.
You can contribute anywhere from $100 to $180+ NZD per session, paid at the end of each visit.
To help inform your decision:
$100 covers my basic running costs.
$150 covers my costs and supports my family.
$180+ supports my family and helps me extend this work to those at the lower end of the scale.
For this to work for everyone, I ask three things:
1. Show up consistently. Breathwork works best with regularity. If you need to reschedule, please let me know as early as possible.
2. Contribute each session. If you're going through genuine financial hardship, please reach out and speak with me personally. I'd rather have that conversation than have cost be a barrier to your healing.
3. Share this work. This model thrives on community and word of mouth. If breathwork has moved you, telling others supports their journey and helps keep this available for everyone.
One more thing, and this is important.
You'll have one opportunity for a standalone session. After that, I ask that you come with the intention of returning at least four times, with no more than two weeks between sessions.
This isn't a catch. It's a commitment to your own results.
You wouldn't go to the gym once and expect lasting change. The same is true here. This boundary exists because I've seen what consistent work does, and I want that for you.
"I've never felt so safe and held before as I did with John during his breathwork sessions. He truly represents the healed masculine that is so precious and healing. I was able to process some deep wounds thanks to his gentle and supportive presence. I wholeheartedly recommend attending his sessions, it was life-changing for me!"
-Marlin, Coach
"John, I’ve never allowed myself to be that vulnerable in front of a stranger before. Yes, I had close people around me that I have shared parts of my story with and feel very safe to journey with, but the way you curated such a safe environment through you being you allowed me to open and move things, things that I have purposely not looked at because they were too painful. I appreciate your gift to the world John and am grateful to have had the experience. I look forward to breathing with you again."
Zarah, Practitioner & Herbalist
"I'd highly recommend him to anyone looking to show up for themselves and dive deep. This was my first breathwork session and It was an incredible experience. John carefully guided me through the process and was a calming presence throughout. I felt some big shifts and I’m going to incorporate a daily practice john has given me.”
– Tom, Managing Director
"John held a beautiful intimate breathwork experience for a group of our friends yesterday and wow.... he curated such a safe and loving space that allowed some big things to move through me. I felt extremely held and cared for during the whole practice. I absolutely recommend John in the highest regard and if you have the chance to attend one of his events, jump at the opportunity.
You will not be disappointed!"
- Jesse, Builder
