Here’s what people have said about working with Scott.

Scott’s worked with…

“Scott has a real calm and depth to him.”
- Wim Hof

“It was fantastic and gave me the tools to deal with workplace anxiety. I liked the relaxed nature of how Scott facilitated the workshop.”
- NZ Post

“Love your mahi! I never did get the same result from other breathwork coaches. Your class was incredible, incomparable, and brought tears to my eyes. I need more of that.”
- Kirsty B

“Since the workshop I’ve used the breathing methods to control stress and maintain focus and achieve relaxation. I liked the applicability to work and home life.”
- Meridian Energy

“Awesome, exceeded my expectations. I liked the scientific perspective, that resonates with me. The exercises are simple and easy to incorporate into my day. I’m definitely seeing benefits already.”
- Naomi, Reserve Bank of New Zealand

“After working with Scott, life is now breathing around me.”
— Sal Hejaz

“I was on the verge of a full-blown crisis. I feel really easy going and now I’m laughing at all the things that have been bothering me over the last three months.”
— Talia Hicks

“The fact you walked into a challenging corporate environment and didn’t pretend to be anything you are not, shifting a largely (I would suspect) sceptical audience into a positive mindset over the course of the two-hour workshop. All done without the usual woo-woo associated with yoga, meditation, and the like. You’ve clearly been doing this for quite a while and are seemingly unfazed by getting groups to engage with this practice. You’ve clearly got strength and depth in what you’re bringing to the group.”
- Leon, Reserve Bank of New Zealand

“I wasn’t sure what to expect, but when I relaxed and followed the exercises, I felt that they really worked! The workshop was relaxed, there was plenty of time to try the exercises and ask questions.” 
- Education Review Office

“I am extremely excited at the vision that Scott has for this work and endorse the content and the impact it has wholeheartedly. It’s a winning program and needs to be delivered across a diverse range of platforms to enable as many people as it can.”
— Annah Stretton

“I find it helps calm and re-centre me, and a bonus that it’s so easy to do! I felt awesome after trying these in the workshop - both at peace and energised.”
- NZ Post

“The session was great. Scott was a knowledgeable and capable trainer and this was a really insightful and valuable course.” 
- Parliamentary Services

“Well worth it, it’s absurd that every human being on the planet isn’t doing this every day.”
— Seb Hazell

“I really enjoyed the workshop, it was practical and a lot of knowledge was shared. It was really timely for me as it is so easy to get caught up in the ‘grind’ of everyday work. It’s so important to stay grounded and reflective in everyday life and I think the breathing workshop was a great reminder that these things work and can be used at work/every day. I will continue to use the tools I learned going forward both personally and at work.” 
- Ministry of Defence

“It feels much easier to focus on breathing than it is to try “meditate”. Meditation can sound intimidating to try, fail or learn.”
— Nicola Morris

”The workshop was excellent and very useful. I enjoyed all the different exercises and Scott’s general approach and manner. I would highly recommend this course to others.”
- NZ Post

“Great! Very energising and useful techniques to deal with stress. I felt relaxed and safe and Scott really knew his stuff - very inspiring. It seems simple and obvious to breathe but I really learned a lot that I can practically use.”
- Education Review Office

“Now I use breathing as a tool if I’m feeling stressed or disorganised.”
— Colburn Rhodes

“The workshop was excellent. I’ve since used the breathing methods to calm myself down. I really enjoyed the practical elements of the workshop.”
- Reserve Bank of New Zealand

“The workshop was good, it was casual and light-hearted, but still had value! It added some sense to my meditation practice, gave me a different way to approach panic attacks, and gave me some clarity. I also found it interesting learning how everything works together in the body.”
- Met Service

“Awesome - One of the best things I’ve done in a while. Just being aware of your breathing is really powerful. The exercise where you did 20 big breaths, and then exhaled. Amazing experience. It was really well structured, given the time constraints.”
- Meridian Energy

“I’m a beach lifeguard and sometimes I see or deal with things at work which isn’t pleasant. This helps me to detach myself from some of the messed up stuff.”
— Barney Hedgecock

”Very well run, clearly explained, some good things to try, good to have some humour too.”
- NZ Post

“I had some awareness of breath beforehand, the workshop surprised me in the power of the breathing exercises that I had not experienced before. I enjoyed the relaxed state of the presenter, and the power of the breathing exercises, the change of my state from stressed to relaxed.”
- Reserve Bank of New Zealand

“It was great, so so needed, simple but so powerful. You were awesome, great topics, well done.”
— Kevin Reeves

“I enjoyed the whole session really - the delivery was great, I learned more about some of the aspects I am interested in (Wim Hof for example) and the knowledge Scott has is amazing. Very interesting and engaging.”
- MetService

“Now I can feel my breath, I can clear my mind in just one minute!” — Thomas Laffaye

“Thank you very much for the excellent presentation. It is very practical and useful for everyone.”
- Reserve Bank of New Zealand

”Scott was really great in creating the right atmosphere for everyone to really get into the zone and let go. I enjoyed the workshop and every now and then, am more conscious of taking a deep breath.”
- NZ Post

- Maddie
