Breathwork in Fremantle

Mandy Francisty runs day retreats around Perth and weekend retreats further afield — the next in Pemberton — built from slow-flow and restorative yoga, yoga nidra, meditation, breathwork, journaling and a vegan, gluten-free lunch, each day on a different theme. Based in Two Rocks, where there is venue hire, a sauna and ice bath and weekly yoga, she is a yoga and pilates teacher, breathwork practitioner, NLP and EFT therapist and personal trainer, and takes private bookings for hens, birthdays and teams.

Richard and Helena Boyd have run Energetics Institute from a Federation home in Inglewood for more than twenty years. Breathwork sits alongside their somatic psychotherapy practice — private sessions in the rooms or online, and group breathwork sessions that fold in sound. Both are professional members of the Australian Breathwork Association. Open weekdays to 7pm and Saturday mornings.

Mark Simpson works from Princess Road in Doubleview and over Zoom, with group breathwork most Tuesday evenings and some weekend afternoons, two-hour one-to-one journeys, and a shorter hour-long introductory session. His training is a year-long course recognised by the Australian Breathwork Association; he is also an 800-hour yoga teacher and a Reiki master, and runs programs for organisations. Prices are on the site: $80 for the hour, $160 for a two-hour private session.

Life in Flow is the breathwork arm of Breathe Counselling, a Perth counselling practice with rooms across the city. Joanna Gwynn, the practice's co-director and an internationally accredited breathwork practitioner with trauma-informed and somatic training, runs individual sessions in person and online and small group sessions, offered at the Perth, Rockingham and Mandurah clinics. The sessions are built as a series of five, each with a different focus, and are gentle enough for children.

Graeme Salvetti has facilitated breathwork for more than sixteen years and holds a degree in psychotherapy and counselling. Weekly group sessions run on Sunday afternoons in South Fremantle, online group journeys most Thursday evenings, and two-hour private sessions for individuals or couples by arrangement, alongside men's groups, embodiment coaching and bespoke sessions for organisations. Published prices: $80 for the Sunday group, $65 online, $180 private.

Boutique reformer studios in Mahogany Creek and Kalamunda running fifty-plus classes a week since 2022 — reformer and restorative reformer alongside sound baths, meditation, breathwork and nervous-system regulation programs. The Mahogany Creek studio adds The Sanctuary, a sauna and cold plunge, plus a creche for the Mini + Me classes, and the team runs retreats as far afield as Ningaloo.

Claire Belton runs breathwork and shamanic breathwork practitioner trainings from Fremantle — regular courses locally and around Australia — for those who want to move from receiving sessions to facilitating them.

Immersive 9D breathwork journeys in Perth — conscious breathing set against layered psychoacoustic sound, live shamanic vocals and chants, across twelve themed journey formats. Sessions book through Eventbrite.

João Soares pairs breathwork with registered counselling — an ACA-registered counsellor and somatic therapist running 9D breathwork sessions, fortnightly group workshops, one-to-one work and a 100-hour IPHM-accredited practitioner training from Southern River.

Pranayama-based breathwork built around the traditional understanding of breath as life force: studio group classes, private one-to-one sessions at your home or chosen spot, and private group sessions for couples or friends. A guided audio library — The Breath Within — keeps the practice going between sessions.
