Turn the Breath into an Ally

Early Bird

not just breath work

The breath is one of the most powerful aspects of human experience, connecting the internal and external, the visible and invisible, the gross and the subtle.

In this workshop, you’ll explore the subtle dimension of the breath through an awareness based experience that transforms the body-mind state.

real benefits

  • Release

    Release tension and stored emotions along the spinal chain. As the breath deepens, it softens holding patterns in the body, freeing space for relaxation, balance, and emotional clarity.

  • Optimization

    Optimize breathing mechanics for daily life, movement, and sleep. Restoring diaphragm elasticity makes breathing more efficient and adaptable, improving posture, circulation, and recovery.

  • Presence

    Calm the “monkey mind” and anchor yourself in the present moment. Focused breathing quiets mental chatter, bringing clarity, ease, and full awareness to each experience.

  • Vitality

    Increase CO₂ tolerance, enhancing oxygen delivery to cells and energizing the body.Increase CO₂ tolerance to enhance oxygen delivery and cellular energy. This revitalizes the body, sharpens focus, and sustains natural vitality throughout the day.

Biography

Toufic Geagea is the founder of Movement Circle Montreal and holds a BSc in Exercise Science.
His path began in sports, evolved through six years in fitness, and deepened with a growing love for improvisation and dance.

A pivotal moment came eight years ago when he encountered Ido Portal’s Movement Philosophy. This led him to further exploration and study with Marcello Palozzo in Austria, eventually joining the first cohort of the Human Movement Studies program.

Toufic has taught in diverse settings across Canada and Europe, sharing his approach with a wide range of communities—from structured facilities to experimental spaces.

Grounded in both academic study and lived experience, he continues to create spaces where movement becomes a path for connection, expression, and self-realization—a journey he walks alongside those he teaches.
