Somatic Breathflow engages the body's interconnected systems in a deeply relaxing and clinically proven way that transforms limiting physical patterns through anatomy-informed and sustainable protocols. Somatic Breathflow connects the embodied somatic sensations awakened by the breathing gesture with shifts in the emotional, mental, and transpersonal space within and around us.
Rooted in psychology, transdisciplinary holistic education, and decades of anatomy research, Somatic Breathflow offers practical strategies to awaken hidden parts of the body and psyche to integrate the conscious and subconscious elements of ourselves.

The Three Pillars of the Somatic Breathflow Practitioner Training
Anatomy Research & Applied Somatics
Integrate advanced knowledge of your physical anatomy with powerful protocols for Somatic Awareness. Access subliminal information from your body to create harmony and balance.
Somatic Psychology & Intuition
Connect your hidden beliefs and subconscious emotions to this newly found Sensorial Awareness. Listen, recognize, and follow your inner guidance based on your true feelings and how your body responds.
Pedagogy & Facilitation Skills
Master a truly original method with advanced teaching techniques and facilitation skills that heal you from within. Learn how to expertly facilitate this transformative process for your students and clients..
After completing the Somatic Breathflow Practitioner Training, I felt enriched by a profound knowledge of my body, emotions, and the connections between them. Exploring breath as an experience rooted in visceral and subconscious structures transforms it into a doorway that connected my physical, mental, and emotional bodies. Professionally, I feel much more equipped and confident because I discovered so many practical and theoretical resources to support my intuitions. I was also very impressed by the anatomy sessions. I always thought of anatomy as something difficult and boring, but this training completely changed my mind. Andrea's explanations, the original IOAS illustrations, the sequence of exercises… all made the anatomy extremely approachable, experiential, and applicable. I clearly felt the connection between the theory and the practice! Andrea really dominates the topic and is able to make everything effortless and fun. The online platform is very well arranged, and the live sessions are masterfully managed. Everything was simply so seamless and accessible that I could completely focus on the content and my connection with the other trainee practitioners. The Somatic Awareness and Psychology protocols trained me to become a curious observer of my subconscious body and mind and I feel entirely confident that I can now help others to do the same.

Andrea's wealth of knowledge and the passion for the material easily shines through. The information is detailed yet is presented in a way that is easily accessible. The online campus is the most complete and professional learning platform I have ever seen. The anatomical illustrations are not only beautiful but deepen the learning through the detail presented. Everything that you need to learn - from the live calls, slides and exercises - is broken down into bite-size chunks which makes it easy and manageable for students who want to immerse themselves in the material but also have busy lives. I absolutely LOVE, LOVE, LOVE the online journal and feel this is an integral part of the learning process. Through this, I am not only expanding my physical self but connecting to the deeper parts of my subconscious and indeed, my soul. I have felt immensely supported during the learning process and indeed, even before the course formally began. Andrea is not only deeply knowledgeable but personable, warm and welcoming.

I loved the Somatic Breathflow Training. I found it provides a solid anatomical base, a big experiencial part, to feel the protocols and appreciate their effects on the mind-body system, and a wise and welcoming teacher. Andrea is a pearl, his knowledge and gentle manner are so special. I was looking for a breathwork training and I found many breathing techniques to help people, and myself, free their breath and regain a link to their intuition and subconscious mind: to ask for guidance, inspiration, and help, for everyday life tasks or big life changing decisions. Being a very active person I found most precious the "not-doing is an action" approach, and I started introducing Somatic Breathflow in almost all my Hatha yoga, Yoga Nidra, Mindfulness, and bodywork lessons. I highly recommend this training if you are looking for something to reconnect your body to your breathing and your soul to cultivate deep relaxation, softness and easiness in everyday life.

I had the most incredible string of synchronicities and I witnessed a huge transformation in the relationship with my family while shifting patterns in my physical and emotional body through Somatic exercises and Dreamtime protocols.
A whole new world has been revealed to my senses.
Agnieszka Pokrywka
Social Impact Artist
The technique of Somatic Intuition that I learned with loAS protocols blew me away. This immediate and accessible approach that combines the language of the body to the language of the subconscious mind feels right, it is very beautifully realized and very effective too!
Mark Shpritz
Acupuncturist
Training with loAS revealed to me the profound connection between heart, emotions, and the freedom of movement in many modalities. Now that I started exploring shamanic Dreamtime using Somatic protocols I feel like a child who wants to share this experience with all the other kids!
