WHAT MAKES THIS TRAINING SO DEEP AND SO UNIQUE?

The History and Evolution of the Breath Mastery Training.

Dan Brulé is a missionary for the Breath! He has been called the ‘Bruce Lee of Breathwork’ the ‘Yoda of Breathing’, and the ‘Godfather’ of the Modern Breathwork Movement. He is a renown pioneer, expert, and authority in the field. And this Training is his way of passing on the lessons he has gleaned from a lifetime of Study and Practice in the Art and Science of Breathwork.

His fascination with breathing began in kindergarten—literally! And his passion for the breath intensified and was burned into him with several near-death drowning experiences. He began his formal breathing education as an X-Ray and CPR Technician at Northeastern University and Boston City Hospital in 1969.

In 1971, the Path of Breath Mastery led Dan into the US Navy and Hospital Corps School. He went on to work in Special Operations as a Medical Deep Sea Diver and an Underwater Rescue Specialist. He learned Breath Control for Survival at the Experimental Diving Unit Washington, DC in 1973, and for several years he held the Navy’s Breath-Holding Record (6 min-10 sec).

From 1974-75 Dan taught Breath Control for Submarine Escape Training in Honolulu. He worked in a Recompression Chamber, treating many divers, and serving on several ships and Naval Stations. He published three Reports for the University of Hawaii. And he gave Public Testimony on the Benefits of Breathing Training to the Hawaii State Senate’s Committee on the Medicinal Use of Marihuana.

In 1976 at UMass Dartmouth, he created the famous “Breath Energy Training” and he created the first-in-the-nation “Stress and Coping Workshop” for the American Red Cross. He was first among the original group of Internationally Certified Rebirthers, and he remained a life-long friend of Leonard Orr the founder of the Rebirthing Breathwork Movement.

In 1980, he was initiated into Kriya Yoga by the Immortal Yogi Master Babaji (written about in Yogananda’s book: Autobiography of a Yogi.) In the early 80’s Dan designed and completed a Master’s Degree in the Healing Arts at Lesley University, called: “Breath as a Tool for Health, Growth and Change. He went on to teach patients at Tufts University Chronic Pain Clinic.

In 1985, he visited Beijing, China and studied with the legendary Qigong Master Hu Bin. And then he introduced Chinese Medical Breathing Exercises to the West. He studied Breathing Coordination with Carl Stough (Dr. Breath). He practiced Prana Yoga with Swami Rama, and did early Biofeedback Training at the Himalayan Institute in Honesdale, PA.

Some of his other teachers include Yogi Ramacharaka, Bruno Geba, Milton Young, Nancy Zi, and Stan Grof. He was a follower of Osho, and for a time was a member of the Rajneesh Community in Oregon.

In 1990, Dan took his work to Russia where he contributed to a ten-year study with the Russian Academy of Sciences and was an advisor for their first Ph.D. Program in Breathwork. He studied with Knostantin Buteyko and Mikhail Ryabko, and trained over a dozen Olympic athletes including 13 time Greco-Roman Wrestling Champion Alexander Karelin.

Over the years he has travelled and taught throughout the USA, Canada, Europe, India, China, South America, and the former Soviet Republics. And has led programs in such diverse places as Yellowknife, Northwest territories of Canada, the San Pedro Federal Prison in Bolivia, the Hopi Cultural Center in Arizona, Bashkir State Medical University in Ufa, the Estonian Academy of Music and Theatre.

He has done countless Radio, TV, and Podcast interviews. And so far, he has studied and practiced in over 65 countries, and he has personally taught more than 250,000 people! Dan has many other teachers, and he has even studied breathing in animals.

As Dan says: “Whenever I heard about anyone in the world who was teaching anything about the breath, I ended up either breathing down their neck or kissing their feet!” And with this Six Month Breath Mastery Training he will pass on to you the most important lessons he’s learned  in five decades of practice!
