Workshop Details

Join Iris & Maxime Le Royer for a deep immersion into the powerful elements of rhythm and sound! During these 4 days of training you will learn simple and accessible tools to open and deepen your connection to your voice, as well as practical ways to play and express your musical creativity with intuitive instruments.

This training is accessible to anyone who wants to explore the power of their voice and learn to play an instrument, with or without any prior musical experience.

Rhythm is present in all life aspects through pulses and cycles, and this training is designed to help you connect to your innate sense of rhythm through embodied rhythmic journeys.

As you dive into the rhythmic nature of your being, you will connect more clearly to your raw energy and creativity, and explore ways to express them artfully. Expanding your skills of deep listening, resonance, coordination and adaptability will allow you to support your work, share your talents and express your creative flow with your voice and intuitive instruments.

If you are a BBTRS facilitator, learning to deepen your listening skills (how you hear, Feel and attune to the rhythms and vibrations in and around you) will be very helpful to develop your capacity for resonance, and thus facilitate from a grounded and connected state.

Furthermore, live music played from a resonant state is a powerful addition to support the integration phase of your clients after a transformative breathwork session.

Client Testimonials

What our clients say about us.

“I am encouraged by the promise of this book and this approach! I’m new to Giten’s work, and this book is a perfect way to explore and use his approach to help me heal from trauma. I’ve had those tremors and didn’t know what it was or what to do with them. My understanding is that this work, which I’m learning about from this book, releases the tension remaining in my tissues after traumatic experiences. For me, breast cancer surgery and treatment, and the loss of a child. Through this approach, at home, with my community of healers, I’m looking forward to using what I’m learning in this book to move the trauma out of my body. Old stuff but also the stress and tension of modern life. I bet there’s trauma that I don’t even know the source of exactly that’s stuck in me! Thank you Giten. You are helping others to help them (me) live more free and fulfilling lives. Bravo!

Marcelle

“This profound work combines practical guidance and theoretical insights. The book is easy to read and a must if you work with somatic trauma healing or if you have the desire to heal your own body from trauma or other physical or emotional states. Regardless whether you are a practitioner or client, the book challenges you to face your own process and work with the profound and subtle release of any blockage in your body. On top of that the book is a great guidance tool to enlarge your understanding of trauma in our bodies and the important role breath, movement, touch, emotional release, sound and meditation play in this healing process. It also provides helpful exercises that you can do with your clients. All in all, a profound and complete piece of work!

Marjon van Opijnen

“Very good book, with important and beneficial information. It’s a bit too scientific for me, but for someone who’s studying breathworks/meditation/etc, I think it’s perfect. Anyway, I’m achieving new knowledge, but the secret is to practice it. I recommend it, just if you’re open for a lot of new information. Namaste.

Andreea Bahrim

“This is not just a book on breath, trauma, and how to bring healing to the human body. It is a piece of art. Giten has done a magnificent job in bringing his lifelong experience of working with himself and other people and throughout the book I can feel that. If you want to embark on a self-healing journey yourself or want to deepen your understanding of Trauma and how to release it from the body and mind, this is an excellent choice! Thank you Giten for sharing with us!

Yonathan Eidels

“I went to a workshop after reading this book with BBTRS®. This stuff is gold. I am so grateful to have had the opportunity to see this all in action within the workshop. I have been to several Retreats and read so many books to try and work with trauma in my body. I have never received so much help and insight in my life concerning chronic pain and Trauma. I would highly recommend this book and attending a retreat. Truly life-changing.

Amazon Customer

“This book is an incredible resource for anyone wanting to understand more about body-oriented ways of trauma healing. It is a rich exploration of the use of breathwork, how to support the nervous system to come out of freeze and back into regulation, and gives wonderful case examples of how this work has benefited others. I really appreciated the great mixture of scientific evidence and personal stories that weave together to give a very complete understanding of the BioDynamic Breathwork process. And there are many helpful exercises you can experiment with at home as well!

Jennifer M. ___

“An interesting and enjoyable book. Knowing next to nothing about the topic but open to new and not mainstream modalities, I read it because a friend recommended it to me. I expected it might be rather dry; I was pleased it was not. The examples used and the photos of positions and diagrams help explain the techniques. The book transitions nicely from chapter to chapter, and the ‘how to’ instructions are clear and thorough. A sweet gift to give to those of us who have experienced trauma and seek a nurturing and loving way to release it from our bodies. Well done.

JK ___

“Giten Tonkov’s book “Feel to Heal” is a refreshing read into the world of trauma and how intentional breathwork can ease or eliminate the effects of trauma and tension in the body and mind. Included is a history of breathwork and a lot of technical info (presented non-technically) to understand the body’s natural processes and why breathwork is effective. All of the stories, diagrams, and photos aid in this endeavor. While it recommends seeing professionally trained breathwork facilitators in the Biodynamic Breath & Trauma Release System, it also goes on to explain breathwork techniques to help yourself in the privacy of your own home. I bought a hard copy so that I can highlight and make notes!

Amazon Customer

“I ordered this book as part of a Breathwork certification program I am attending. It is an excellent book that provides an in-depth explanation of Tonkov’s 6 Component Method and it contains an extensive Notes and Bibliography section siting references for his body of work. I would highly recommend it to anyone exploring body-centered work personally or as a private practice working with clients.
