Feedback from clients whose sports performance has been enhanced by the Buteyko breathing, both those with asthma and without.
Dylan breathes through his nose to boost his performance
Dylan did our Buteyko course in 2017, when he was 8 years old. This is a video of him his mother shared two years later. He trains for track and field every Tuesday and here he is doing long jump. His mouth is closed and this translates to better posture, breathing and maximal oxygen delivery to every muscle. Read more about Dylan »

As a runner I have benefited greatly from improved breathing control and efficiency. I successfully trained for the Auckland Marathon using only Buteyko method breathing and can consistently run between 4:30 and 5:00 minutes per kilometre. My resting heart rate is now typically in the low to mid 40’s. An added bonus is that I now find that I need to drink less while running. More -

I have been an asthmatic since the age of thirty. I was probably also asthmatic as a child but it was treated then as a chronic coughs.

The course has taught me the hazards of always mouth breathing and the health implications when you do. What I am most grateful is being able to play netball for an entire day and not become dehydrated nor have an insane headache or throw up. More
