Deepened Client Loyalty
When someone has a genuine breakthrough in your space, they don't leave. They bring their friends. They talk about it for years. Your studio becomes part of their transformation story.
Portland Breathwork Facilitator · Available for Studios & Retreat Spaces
You've created
something real.
Let's go deeper.
You've already built a special place with great offerings — a space your community trusts, returns to, and grows in. Conscious Connected Breathwork is a natural next step. A new door into the transformation you're already creating.

The Work
This is not yogic breathwork.
Pranayama, ujjayi, box breathing — these are powerful practices. But Conscious Connected Breathwork is a different category entirely. It's a continuous, connected breathing technique that bypasses the thinking mind and directly accesses the body's stored emotional and physiological patterns.
In a single session, people can release trauma, dissolve grief, experience profound joy, or touch something they don't have words for. It's not a relaxation technique. It's a ceremony of the body.
Most of your people have never experienced it. That's exactly why it's so powerful to offer it.

The Problem
You've built something real. And you're always looking for what can deepen it.
—
Your classes create genuine change — and you're always curious what the next layer could look like.
—
You'd love to offer something ceremonial and somatic — but it's not your specific training to hold.
—
Your community already experiences real change through your work — breathwork can unlock a completely different dimension of that.
—
This is the next offering in the evolution of your practice.
You've given them the practice. The breath gives them the release.
What you've created is already working. Your people come back. They grow. They trust you.
Conscious Connected Breathwork doesn't replace any of that — it sits alongside it. Think of it as a new instrument in an orchestra you've already built. The music your community already makes together gets a new voice.
The Impact
This honors what
you've built — and gives
your people more.
Let's be honest with each other: I'm not a social media influencer, and I won't be bringing you a flood of new faces. What I bring instead is something that deepens what you've already built — an experience that makes your community feel even more certain that your space is exactly where they're supposed to be.
The studios that offer this kind of work aren't replacing what they do — they're adding a dimension that their community didn't know was available to them. And they become known as the space that goes all the way.
Elevated Perceived Authority
Offering something your people have never experienced — and being the space that introduced it to them — positions your studio as a place that leads, not follows.
A Truly Differentiated Experience
In a market full of yoga classes, sound baths, and meditation apps, a live Conscious Connected Breathwork ceremony with a trained facilitator is genuinely rare. That rarity has value.
Real Results Your People Will Feel
Not ‘I feel calm.’ But: ‘Something shifted.’ ‘I cried and I don't know why — but I feel lighter.’ ‘I've been doing yoga for 10 years and nothing has touched what this touched.’ That's what you're giving them.
Your Guide
I'm not here to be
the main event.
I'm here to make your
space unforgettable.
I know what it feels like to sit in a room of people and sense that something profound is possible — and not yet have the tools to reach it. I've been that person. And I've spent a lifetime building the tools.
I was born into ceremony — raised in the Huichol shamanic tradition through the Dance of the Deer Foundation in Ojai, California. I now call Portland, Oregon home, where I facilitate breathwork ceremonies for studios and communities throughout the city and beyond. I've traveled six times to Wirikuta, the sacred desert of the Wixárika people, carrying prayers into land that has held ceremony for centuries.
I've moved through real darkness — trauma, addiction, loss — and came out the other side with something to offer. I didn't learn this work from a training manual. I learned it from the inside of it.

The Plan
Simple to book. Profound to experience.
Here's exactly how bringing Tai to your space works.
Step 1
Send Your Inquiry

Step 2
We Design Together
We connect on a call to talk through your vision — group size, format, what your community needs most. Every ceremony is shaped around your space and your people. Nothing is off-the-shelf.
Step 3
I Hold the Space
I arrive fully prepared, set the ceremonial container, and guide your community through something they won't forget. You focus on your people. I handle everything sacred.

The Stakes
What stays the same if nothing changes.
Your people are already showing up. Already doing the work. Already leaving better than they arrived — because of what you've built.
This isn't about what's missing. It's about what's possible when you add one more dimension to something that's already working. The studios that go this deep become the ones their communities build their lives around.
Without breathwork added
—
The same great work, without this particular layer
—
A dimension of transformation that stays untouched
—
Community loyalty built on what already exists
—
Your people seeking this specific experience at another space
After the ceremony
✦
A room of people who have genuinely felt themselves
✦
Real shifts — in how they breathe, move, and return
✦
Your space becomes part of their transformation story
✦
People who stay because something real happened here
“I went in thinking I needed answers. What I found was something I didn't know I'd been carrying — and by the end, I had set it down. Tai held that space like he was born to do it.”
— Private Ceremony Participant
The Vision
Imagine your people
on the other side of this.
Not fixed. Not healed in a neat, tidy way. But genuinely expanded — carrying what your work has already given them, plus something new that the breath unlocked. A layer deeper than they'd been before.
And when they try to explain it to their friends — they'll say your studio's name. Because that's where it happened. That's where you already bring them something real, and went one layer further.

The Breath
The body releases what the mind alone cannot reach. Something ancient in them remembers itself.
◈
The Container
A trained facilitator holding sacred space is what makes this safe enough to go deep — and go there together.
✦
The Community
To feel deeply in a room full of others is to remember we were never meant to carry any of this alone.
Your community
is ready.
Are you?
You've already built a space where real things happen. This is just one more real thing. One conversation is all it takes.
