My teaching approach primarily relies on developing respiratory health, awareness and control, as a mean to become more resilient. Postural work and stressors (such as cold exposure) are key practices in reinforcing breathing practices.

Uimhofa Metodo

Through breathing exercises, gradual exposure to cold and mindset training, the Wim Hof Method is a great tool. As the only level 2 certified instructor in the province of Québec, I can introduce you to the basic practice or guide you into the advanced tools of the Wim Hof Method.

Oksigena Avantagxo

The Oxygen Advantage is a great approach to add functional breathing into your daily life and target issues such as stress, sleep quality and athletic performances. As an Advanced certified instructor, I can provide you the right personalized advices.

SomaTraining/ELDOA

Behind this acronyme are intense and amazing stretches that promote spinal health and reinforce overall postural alignement. They are a great companions of the respiratory chain.

Overall breathing geek...

Because knowledge goes beyond certifications, I am always eager to learn from as much sources as I can. As a man of science, I am doing my best to avoid pseudo-scientific dead ends.

Mi kompletigis 3 oficialajn ekzercadojn nuntempe. Sed mia reala persona ekzercado estas pli ricxa. Dedicado al persona ekzercado kaj instruado, lauxlonge de scivolemo, estas la radiko de la kvalito.

Why doing this?

Because you live 20,000 to 30,000 days, and you breathe 20,000 to 30,000 times a day…

…but you have probably  overlooked it.

Because no fitness program would neglect a whole muscle chain…

… but pretty much all ignore the respiratory chain.

Because breathing is a fundamental physiological function that enables to manage stress, mood, emotions. Especially when associated with stressors, such as cold exposure.

Because breathing can affect your posture, which may in turn affect your breathing.

What My Clients​​ Say about Me

Sebastien explained everything clearly, and answered our questions with patience and knowledge. He was very professional, and made me feel safe from the start. I felt well take care of throughout the day and would highly recommend him as an instructor. He guided our breathwork with expertise and the session renewed my interest in the method as well as increased my knowledge. I would like to thank him for his help and guidance. I am so happy I took this workshop!

Sebastian was great. Gave great explanations of the science behind the method, was a great speaker, and was supportive of all through the class.

Sébastien was a great instructor and through personal experience and insights, he communicated his appreciation of the WHM. I was personally touched by a story he shared that implied "breaking the layer of ice with a mace" when we are taken back by older resurfacing patterns. He was very knowledgeable, quiet in some way and communicative and inspiring at the same time. I had been learning the WHM for approximately six months now and I am nonetheless glad to have had the chance of participating in this workshop. The group experience was great, we had a great group!

Sebastien was an awesome instructor! Super nice, incredibly knowledgeable, and very fun. Loved having a scientist as my first instructor because he really delved into the science behind the method and more clearly explained the things I did not previously understand. Highly recommended!
