In-person


Whether you're totally new to Breema, an experienced student, or currently considering becoming a Breema Practitioner, the weekend workshop is a perfect opportunity to nourish your body, mind, and feelings with Breema bodywork, Self-Breema exercises, and Breema's  practical philosophy.

Real support is always mutual. Breema helps us build a foundation of body-mind connection, which enables us to extract benefit from every situation. Breema Bodywork and Breema’s Nine Principles of Harmony connect us to an inner reservoir of vitality, where we have access to the energy and clarity needed to support both ourselves and others.

You can participate in the entire weekend, or just attend one or more of the four workshops. Pre-registration is required. Call or email the Breema Center for more information. 

CE is available for massage therapists and bodyworkers, nurses, LMFTs, LCSWs, LPCCs, and LEPs. $10 fee for processing
