Free ebook: The Issue Lives in the Tissue

A calm 50-page guide on trauma release through conscious touch and breath — for bodywork and breathwork students.

Our trainings

Two paths into body awareness

Both are experiential: you learn by feeling it yourself first, then by practising with others in a small, supportive group.

BBTRS®

Biodynamic Breathwork & Trauma Release

A gentle, body-based practice of breath, movement, sound and touch, to sense yourself more fully and let held tension soften. Three 7-day in-person modules plus one online training (550 hours). Open to everyone — no experience needed.

MER®

Myofascial Energetic Release

Deep, sensitive bodywork that meets the body through fascia, breath and presence. Seven 6-day modules in Tallinn (500 hours), which you can take in any order. For beginners and practitioners alike.

Who it's for

Two ways to study

Both BBTRS® and MER® can be studied in two ways.

01

Become a practitioner

Train to support others in trauma release (BBTRS®) and with pain syndromes (MER®), with full certification: BBTRS® 550 hours, MER® 500 hours.

02

Grow personally

Join BBTRS® or MER® for your own healing, self-awareness and nervous system balance, with no plans to practise required.

Many students start for themselves and later go on to work with others.
