In-person


By inviting presence in touch and movement via the Nine Principles of Harmony, Breema bodywork and self-care exercises create a relationship with that aspect of ourselves which is always whole, healthy, and in harmony.

Nurturing a simple, natural, and direct connection between body, mind, and feelings, we build a foundation: a center of gravity that becomes a source of support and confidence for life.

Learn to touch and move with no judgment, no force, no extra, and full participation.

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

Continuing Education may be available for this event. Visit breema.info/ce for more information and to sign up.

After many years of exploring body-mind connection to deal with pain, I was introduced to Breema and have yet to come across a method as simple, practical, and nourishing. Breema invites me into relationship with my self in a way that is deeply nurturing while reminding me to enjoy every moment along the way. Through Breema bodywork, I learn more and more how to treat...
