Breathwork Workshops

Where science meets experience.

Why breathwork?

Most of us breathe without thinking — yet how we breathe shapes everything: our nervous system, emotional range, focus, and sense of safety in our own bodies.


At Consciously Kinky, we explore breathwork not as performance, but as presence.


We're offering two brand new breathwork workshops this year.


Each workshop offers a safe, inclusive space to reconnect with your breath, understand the science behind it, and use it as a bridge between body and mind.

Workshop 1:

Breath as an Anchor

The Foundations of Breathwork


Where science meets self-awareness.


Breath as an Anchor is a three-hour, in-person workshop introducing the foundations of conscious breathwork.


It’s your chance to explore your body’s natural rhythms, understand what’s really happening inside, and learn to use your breath as a tool for calm, regulation and awareness.


This isn’t about endurance or altered states. They come later. It’s about learning to work with your body, not against it — finding steadiness, space and presence.


You’ll experience practical techniques for:


  • Building awareness of your natural breathing patterns
  • Understanding how breath affects your nervous system and emotions
  • Learning evidence-based tools for stress, focus, and grounding
  • Anchoring yourself when life feels intense


This session stands alone — and it’s the first step toward deeper breathwork practices that follow.

Who it’s for


This workshop is for anyone curious about using breathwork to support wellbeing, emotional regulation, and self-awareness.
You don’t need experience — just curiosity and a willingness to explore.


The space is kink-aware, queer-inclusive, and open to all adults (18+). Every body, every identity, every level of experience is welcome.


When and where?


We are initially trialling this workshop with a very small number of participants, in two different locations:


London Friday 12 December 2025 9:30am-12:30pm


Leeds Saturday 13 December 2025 1:00pm-4:00pm


Each workshop has only six places. Book quickly to secure yours.


Tickets cost £25 if you book more than 2 weeks in advance, after which they increase to £35.

Workshop 2 — Breath as a Journey

If Breath as an Anchor  is about learning the language of breath, Breath as a Journey is about what happens when you let that breath lead the way.


This deeper, music-guided session invites the breath to move freely — sometimes soft and meditative, sometimes powerful and cathartic. Each person’s experience is unique: for some it’s peaceful integration, for others it can open deep emotional release and transformation.


Every journey is safely held, with grounding, integration and care at its core.


The first Breath as a Journey workshop will be coming in early 2026.


More details will be released soon — if you’d like to be the first to hear when it opens please email me and I'll make sure you're signed up for updates.


You won't have to have taken Workshop 1, Breath as an Anchor, to attend Workshop 2, Breath as a Journey, but it will definitely help set the scene.



Grounded in science

Matthew, the facilitator for these workshops, has his first degree in Physics. He can't stand the amount of mumbo-jumbo that other self-help experts talk about things like breathwork.


We did the digging on the science, so you don't have to.


Research from Cambridge, Sussex and Oxford universities shows that deliberate breath practices can lower stress and anxiety, improve emotional regulation, and even shift patterns of brain activity linked to calm and connection.


If you’d like to dig into the research behind the practice, you can explore some of the studies that inspire this work. Here are three peer-reviewed studies that have explored the world of breathwork and how it can be used.
