The Heart of The Breathing Room

In today’s nonstop world, health isn’t just about hitting the gym or following the latest wellness trend. It’s about finding real balance; clarity in your mind, peace in your heart, and harmony in your body.

If you’ve ever tried quick fixes or felt like something’s still missing in your wellness journey, you’re not alone.

That’s exactly why The Breathing Room was created. 

We are not just a studio — we are a safe, welcoming space where you can slow down, breathe, and reconnect with yourself. It’s for anyone tired of patchwork solutions and looking for something deeper, more meaningful.

Here, movement meets mindfulness, and wellness meets wholehearted support. Through carefully chosen classes, mindful practices, nourishing guidance, and a calming environment, TBR helps you build wellbeing that lasts inside and out.

We believe health isn’t a goal to chase. It’s a place to come back to a feeling of being whole, balanced, and truly alive.

At The Breathing Room, we’re here to remind you to move your body, meet your mind, and find your space.

Wellness That Aligns

At The Breathing Room, we understand that real wellness doesn’t come from quick fixes, fitness trends, or piecing together scattered solutions. Many begin their journey with good intentions probably a gym membership, a meditation app, a clean-eating plan but still feel like something’s missing.
That “something” is alignment.
We believe health isn’t something to chase, it’s a natural state you can return to when your body, mind, and inner world are in sync. Our approach is designed to gently guide you there. Whether you’re just starting out or deepening your practice, we’re here to support your whole self, not just parts of it.
We do this through a thoughtfully designed blend of movement, mind and nourishment.

Movement

Feel energised, grounded, and strong through yoga, aerial flows, and dance-inspired movement. Each session is created to release tension and reconnect you to your body without intensity, without overwhelm.

Mind

Our breathwork and emotional regulation practices help you find space in your head and softness in your heart. From grounding techniques to deep release work, this is where mental and emotional clarity begins.

Nourishment

We support your wellbeing from within through food-as-medicine guidance and one-on-one consults. Our workshops and resources help you build a relationship with nourishment that feels intuitive, not restrictive.
This is wellness that works together so you can feel whole again. Gently. Sustainably. At your pace.

Your Wellness Allies

At TBR, our team is more than a group of instructors. They are your Wellness Allies. With certified expertise and heartfelt support, they guide you beyond the numbers, celebrating every step of your journey, big or small.
They help you grow from the inside out — physically, mentally and emotionally.
Their sessions go beyond classes. They create a space that is inclusive, compassionate and free of judgment, where you can show up just as you are. They offer care, connection and a true sense of community.
Wherever you are on your path, they’ll meet you there.

Having completed the levels I and II of AYUSH certifications, I have found my interest and expertise in hatha yoga using my knowledge of body anatomy and physiology! While I continue to practice other forms of yoga like vinyasa flow, Iyengar Yoga, Yin Yoga, my focus remains to be on correct postures and body alignments.

Coupled with the asanas, I have developed a deep understanding of different types of pranayama. Together – it allow the practitioners to connect their body, breath, and mind!
