Breathwork Safety and Waiver

Welcome to the Mike Curry Coaching Breathwork Class. The following class has the potential to change your life, so my best recommendation is to take it seriously and try your best. With daily practice, Elemental Rhythm has witnessed massive transformations in a wide range of people with different ages, occupations, states of health and stress levels.

The following disclaimer is taken from the most intense breathwork classes. We personally feel these are the extreme potential outcomes, however we want everyone to be aware of them and if you have any concerns or questions to speak with a health care practitioner or doctor.

In practicing Elemental Rhythm, the breathwork method used in this class, there has never been anyone seen or heard of getting injured or having a serious contraindication.

The literature also strongly supports this.

A report from 2013 documented the results of 11,000 people over 12 years who participated in a certain type of intense breathwork session and experienced no negative effects. In addition to the many benefits that were observed, no adverse reactions were reported. This makes breathwork a low risk modality.

In fact, there have been NO reported cases in the research or literature of any reported incidents of things like strokes, heart attacks, etc. happening from breathwork.

Advanced breathwork has the potential to bring about intense feelings. Because of the strong physical and emotional releases that may arise, it's not recommended for some people. Please talk to your doctor before practicing this type of breathing.

General Safety Tips

Whenever practicing breathwork, it is important to be situated in a safe environment. In some cases you may experience dizziness or feel light headed, and in rare cases you may lose consciousness. Therefore we recommend lying on the floor or in an area where you will not hurt yourself if you fall. It is also important that you never practice this style of breathing while driving, in water (drowning can occur) or in any situation where passing out could harm yourself or others.
