At KALO (Greek for "beauty that is more than skin deep"), we believe that both beauty and wellnesss start from within. In addition to our women's strength training services, we also offer sauna/cold plunge therapy and breathwork to cultivate a foundation of nervous system regulation, deep connection to purpose/legacy, and authentic connection to others.
During this special breathwork journey we will offer pure, ceremonial grade cacao (always optional) which is known for its heart-opening properties and has been used in  ceremonies for centuries, particularly by indigenous cultures in Central and South America. The act of consuming cacao can serve as a powerful tool for setting intentions for the breathwork journey, helping to focus and align your energies towards your goals. It is also a heart opener, which naturally allows for depth, kindness and connection.
We will cover 3 different types of breathing: 360 breath (the foundational element of all breathwork), breath for vagus nerve activation (calms the nervous system), and circular or concious connected breath (too many emotional + physical benefits to list, but we will cover many in class). From there, you will be led through a beautiful breathwork journey with intentional music that will incorporate all of these techniques into one beautiful flow. We will end with meditation. No previous breathwork experience is required to attend this session. All levels will benefit, and be encouraged to move at paces that are comfortable.
This class will be led by Jourdan Baldwin, KALO Co-Owner and breathwork guide with extensive training in XPT breathwork, pranayama, conscious connected breathwork, and nervous system regulation via the Polyvagal Theory. Jourdan has studied and applied principles of somatic processing, breath mechanics, and stress physiology in her coaching and facilitation, creating an experience that is both deeply embodied and transformative.
Please bring: blanket, pillow, water bottle and anything else you need to create a comfortable space.
