Stress, illness, anxiety, lack of sleep, too much screen time, too little outdoor time in nature – the modern world influences the way we breathe and the way we live on every tangible level.
All of these factors impact our homeostasis – the place our body most likes to be – causing us to be out of touch with nature and out of touch with ourselves.
When we are out of balance within or without, our entire physiology reacts and this impacts on our physical and mental state.
Yet we all hold the magic key to changing this.
Our Breath.
Want to unlock your potential and help others do the same?
Get better sleep, reduce burnout and let go of all types of blockages – all through the power of breath?

‘The Mountains are calling, and I must go’ – John Muir If you’re looking for adventure, a taste of the
If you’re looking for adventure, a taste of the wild and the chance to go beyond what you thought possible, then come join Breathless Expeditions on our life-changing Breathwork Retreat in the Snowy Mountains.
Our breathwork retreat takes place in the beautiful Crackenback Valley, gateway to Kosciuszko National Park. Surrounded by snow topped mountains, the landscape is both majestic and peaceful at once, providing the perfect backdrop to get high and go deep.
Conquer more than just a mountain.
From hiking snow covered trails, swimming in frozen rivers or just pausing for a moment to take in the majestic surroundings, let the ephemeral power of the mountains challenge then soothe, inspire then calm.
Fully ground yourself in nature at her purest. Breathe in that crisp fresh air. Go deep in the breathwork sessions. Find your true self on a snowy peak. Take solace in companionship and camaraderie. Soak up the warmth of the sauna, log fire and shared laughter.
Let yourself be guided by the beauty connection, nature and your breath and return home with a fresh perspective, a deeper sense of self and that call to the wild
answered on every level.
Over the weekend, you will experience advanced breathwork sessions, informative workshops, guided meditations, stimulating discussions and of course, cold water immersion. Your local alpine guides will be on hand to help guide you through and gain a unique insight into the beauty that is the Snowy Mountains. Swim in pristine glacial rivers, summit one of Australia’s highest peaks in minimal clothing and reach your highest potential during this unique weekend adventure.
We will be there to guide and support you every step of the way.
To help you make this your own journey.
To allow you the space and provide you with the tools to tap into your inner superhuman.
It will be a life changing experience.
No matter what your fitness level is, no matter what you’re looking to get out of this time away, you will leave armed with the knowledge and daily practices to enhance your mental, emotional and physical wellness and embrace your true full potential.
Breathless is the space between science and the unknown, between the head and the heart, between learning and feeling, the space between doing and being, between who you are and who you are becoming.
Combining ancient breathwork techniques with revolutionary neuroscience and studies into human potential, we believe that by learning to become aware of our breath and how it impacts on us, we can influence our health, our mental state, the way we feel, the way we move and ultimately, the way we live.
There is so much stress, trauma, and fear build up in our body from everyday life and past experiences, that our Breathwork retreat offers a beautiful path to healing within a safe community.
As Australia’s No. 1 leading breathwork program, we are all about getting out into nature and into our souls.
Get high, go deep and let your breath set you free.
This breathwork retreat is for all fitness levels and no previous experience of cold water exposure or breath work is necessary. This retreat has been designed for those who are:

DISCLAIMER: Breathwork offers many potential benefits, but certain conditions may create risks for some individuals. It is essential to read all questions in Breathless Waiver above carefully before deciding if Breathwork is right for you, and let your health practitioner know about any concerns before participating. There are some contraindications including but not limited to pregnancy, glaucoma, high blood pressure not controlled with medication, cardiovascular disease, aneurysm in the brain or abdomen, uncontrolled thyroid conditions and diabetes, asthma (if you have an inhaler, bring it to the session), epilepsy, bipolar disorder or schizophrenia diagnosis or previous psychiatric hospitalisation within the last ten years; other medical or physical conditions that impair the ability to engage in intense physical/emotional release.

In our experience, this session is more appropriate for those that are aged 18 and above because adolescents may not have the emotional maturity or life experience needed to fully understand or benefit from the techniques. Please contact us to discuss under-18 years of age attendance as we assess on a case-by-case request. Please articulate the event date, venue and participant’s date of birth etc.

John Donne once wrote “No man is an island”. Yet why do so many men feel alone? Join The Men’s Expedition and
Yet why do so many men feel alone? Join The Men’s Expedition and know you don’t have to feel this way.
There’s so much pressure to be a bloke, to be tough, to be strong, to not lose face, to keep a stiff upper lip and all the other trappings that machismo and perceived masculinity bring.
At the same time, we’re told we need to open up more, to show our vulnerable side, to be gentler, softer, and more understanding. Yet we can’t be seen to be weak or afraid.
So many conflicting messages and zero space to pause, take stock and reconnect to who we really are at our essence. It’s no wonder men’s mental health is at an all time low.
On our Men’s Retreat, we enable men to take a look at what’s going on for them in a safe and positive environment. Sitting around all day waiting for pearls of wisdom to fall from the sky is NOT what we do. Our retreats are action based. We get up, we get out, we get stuck in, we don’t hold back and we support each other the whole way.
Getting outdoors, taking on the elements together, supporting one another through challenges and setbacks, laughing (a lot), sharing stories, good food and enjoying the pure simplicity of camaraderie.
It isn’t rocket science. But it works.
If you’re looking for adventure, a taste of the wild and the chance to go beyond what you thought possible, then join us as to the mountains we go.
Over the weekend, you will experience advanced breathwork sessions, informative workshops, guided meditations, stimulating discussions and of course, cold water immersion.

Learn how to Freedive at our “Lady Elliot Island Freediving & Breathwork Retreat” and explore the underwater world on just one breath.
Freedive in crystal waters where whales, manta rays and turtles swim, immerse yourself in nature and connect above and below the surface on this magical island retreat.
Lady Elliot Island’s pristine lagoons and reefs are home to some of the world’s most incredible marine life. Humpback whales, dolphins, manta rays, turtles and a myriad of fish grace these crystal clear waters where we will snorkel, dive and swim. One of the most important seabird nesting sites in the Great Barrier Reef, the island is also a magnet for bird watchers. It’s a mini paradise on Earth and we can’t think of a better place to explore, expand and exhale.
Lady Elliot Island is part of one of the 7 natural wonders of the world. There are very few places on the planet that can match the wonder that exists here, both above and below.
Hence, what better place to reconnect with yourself, nature and the power of both?
Deepen your personal connection with the natural world through daily freediving, snorkelling, yoga and breathwork classes. Here you’ll observe the natural beauty of the reef from above. Also, learn from experienced island guides. Thereupon, watch as humpback whales and manta rays pass by on their annual migration. Finally, dive deep into the night before resurfacing and returning to the real world, refreshed, rejuvenated and refocused.
We will organise and take care of everything. So, all you need to do is turn up with an open heart, a willingness to go deep and ready to connect on a totally different level.
Breathless is the space between science and the unknown, between the head and the heart, between learning and feeling, the space between doing and being,
between who you are and who you are becoming.
Combining ancient breathwork techniques with revolutionary neuroscience and studies into human potential, we believe that by learning to become aware of our breath and how it impacts on us, we can influence our health, our mental state, the way we feel, the way we move and ultimately, the way we live.
As Australia’s No. 1 leading breathwork educational program, we are all about getting out into nature and into our souls. So… get high, go deep and let your breath set you free.
This retreat has been designed for those who are:
This retreat offers a holistic approach to freediving, combining the exhilaration of underwater exploration with emotional healing through breathwork and yoga.
Freediving with manta rays is a unique and special experience because it allows you to:
Connect with Nature: It offers a chance to interact with these graceful creatures in their natural habitat, forging a deep connection with the marine world.
Close Encounters: Freediving allows you to get up close and personal with manta rays, experiencing their majestic presence without the noise and disruption of scuba gear.
Intimate Experience: It’s a more intimate and peaceful way to observe mantas, as you move through the water on their terms, often without the bubbles and equipment associated with scuba diving.
Unforgettable Memories: The sheer beauty and serenity of freediving with manta rays create memories that are both exhilarating and profoundly moving, leaving a lasting impact on divers.
Discover the transformative power of breath for enhanced performance and well-being. Set in a stunning location, you’ll connect with like-minded individuals while receiving personalized coaching to unlock your full potential.

Fly into Lady Elliot on our private plane and meet the marine life from above. The reef is so crystal clear that it’s not uncommon to see whales and rays around the island before you’ve even landed. After checking into your eco cabin, we’ll be exploring the reef and dive sites from the comfort of our glass bottom boat.
After morning yoga and breathwork on the beach, you’ll have the chance to explore the lagoon at low tide. We’ll have a training session in the pool before heading out on our first
free dive. You’re then free to spend the afternoon soaking up the sunshine, reading or exploring the resort.
Fall into the pace of island living. As well as our two daily dives and yoga classes, you’ll be able to visit the pisonia forest and take part in a breathwork ceremony with sacred cacao and the magic of nature all around us.
A day to fully immerse yourself in nature. We’ll swim through caves, watch the dolphins play, observe the turtles, manta rays and maybe even catch sight of a whale or two. At sunset, settle back for the spectacle that is the bird colonies returning to the island and marvel as orange fades to purple and the stars come out in force.
Our final full day of dives, yoga and breathwork lectures in the ocean conservation centre. A chance to pause and reflect on the past few days and to revisit favourite places before a a farewell dinner and stories under the stars.
