Giving and Receiving Take Place Simultaneously - Breema Weekend Workshops

Whether you're totally new to Breema, an experienced student, or currently considering becoming a Breema Practitioner, the weekend workshop is a perfect opportunity to nourish your body, mind, and feelings with Breema bodywork, Self-Breema exercises, and Breema's  practical philosophy.

In this retreat weekend, we will introduce Breema's Nine Principles of Harmony, with an emphasis on the principle of Mutual Support. This Principle is the foundation of every positive relationship, and the key to successful practitioner-client relationships. We will gain direct experience by working with this essential principle, and explore its application in Breema bodywork.

You can participate in the entire weekend, or just attend one or more of the four workshops. Pre-registration is required. Call or email the Breema Center for more information. 

CE is available for massage therapists and bodyworkers, nurses, LMFTs, LCSWs, LPCCs, and LEPs. $10 fee for processing

    Kevin has been studying Breema for over 20 years.  He was drawn to Breema by its simplicity.  Since he began to practice Breema, he has found himself on a path of self-understanding.  This practice is not only for the classroom, but something he uses in his everyday life.  All he has to do is remember.  The more Breema he has in his body, the easier it is to remember.
