Group Breathwork Classes, HawthornMake Time
to Breathe
Sundays for leaders, alternating online and in Melbourne.
Breathe Alongside Others
Without a fixed time for it, the reset keeps getting pushed to next week.
A fixed Sunday takes the decision out of it. You settle onto your own mat, and I guide the breath to music. Each breath is yours alone, and a room breathing together often goes deeper. The breath takes you out of your head, so what the week left in your body can move before Monday. I’m Mike McGregor, with 23 years in HR and leadership.
- Sundays at 7:15pm Melbourne time
- Online one week, Kozen Yoga the next
- $20 AUD online, $30 AUD in person
Grounded and Connected
I had a beautiful experience. The moment I arrived it felt calm, cosy and safe and Mike guided us through the breathwork in a way that I felt totally looked after. I left feeling grounded and connected. This feels transformative.
The session allowed my nervous system to relax, and the post-session conversation was a fantastic way to end and share our experiences. I had a fantastic experience.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is breathwork safe for me?
It suits most adults in good health, and you set the pace throughout. Breathwork is not suitable for everyone. Please get medical clearance first if you are pregnant or have a detached retina or glaucoma, uncontrolled high blood pressure, heart disease or other cardiovascular disease, severe asthma, a history of seizures or epilepsy, severe diabetes, an acute injury or recent surgery, diagnosed psychosis or schizophrenia, or any condition that may be worsened by intense breathing or emotional release. Tell me about any relevant condition before we begin. Unsure? Ask me first.
Will people watch me?
No. Everyone lies on their own mat, and each breath is yours alone. We close with a short sharing, and you speak only if you want to.
What if something big comes up?
That’s completely okay. I guide the room the whole time, you can slow down or stop whenever you choose by returning to normal breathing, and you’ll never be pushed. If it needs more room, a 1:1 session gives it time and coaching.
Should I start in a group or 1:1?
1:1 first: 90 minutes, $250 AUD online or $300 AUD in Hawthorn. Then the group keeps you going, a set Sunday to reset alongside others. Come back to 1:1 whenever a decision is weighing on you.
I have done breathwork before. What is different?
It is a connected breath, in and out through the nose with no pause between. In a group, you get my guidance and a room breathing together. The coaching before and after the breath comes only with a 1:1 session.
What do I bring, and when do I arrive?
At Kozen, nothing at all: mats, blankets, bolsters and cushions are provided. Online, you need a quiet space where you can lie down undisturbed. Either way, wear comfortable clothes, settle in a few minutes early, and do not come under the influence of alcohol or drugs.
Which class do I book?
Either or both. Both start at 7:15pm Melbourne time and take turns, so a group runs every Sunday. Online is $20 AUD, and you join through the list below. In person, it is 55 minutes at Kozen Yoga, 32 Church Street, Hawthorn VIC 3122, for $30 AUD: book and pay on Kozen’s timetable, choosing the Sunday breathwork class.
Not in Melbourne?
Start 1:1 online, $250 AUD on Zoom, just you and me. Then keep going with the online group, every other Sunday at 7:15pm Melbourne time, for $20 AUD: join the list below and breathe with me from anywhere in the world. Groups will run in person wherever I am, including Dubai and Singapore, and the list gets those dates.
Put the Pressure Down
A standing Sunday means the reset actually happens. Online for $20 AUD, or 55 minutes at Kozen Yoga for $30 AUD.
