Our Mission

Increase Accessibility

Increase Accessibility

Increase Accessibility

While there are many paid yoga studios in the area, there are very few spaces dedicated solely to Breathwork and Meditation. We’re helping change that by offering free weekly group sessions led by experienced professional teachers.

Change Perceptions

Increase Accessibility

Increase Accessibility

While Breathwork and Meditation are rooted in spiritual tradition, they are for everyone. The idea that these practices are only for ‘spiritual’ people can put some individuals off — especially young men, who often stand to benefit the most.

Spread Awareness

Increase Accessibility

Spread Awareness

Mental health challenges are rising across society, yet awareness of the benefits of Breathwork and Meditation remains limited. We want to help change that by introducing more people to these simple, powerful practices and making them easier to access.

Group Vs Personal Practice

NO DISTRACTIONS

QUALITY TEACHERS

QUALITY TEACHERS

When you’re in a group session, unlike meditating at home on your sofa, you know you can’t check a text, switch on the TV, or get up to make a cup of tea. Free from those immediate physical distractions, you’re able to settle more fully and go deeper into your practice. You’re here for the hour now, whether you like it or not, so you may as well make the most of it and really drop in.

QUALITY TEACHERS

Our teachers are all experienced professionals who introduce a variety of meditation and breathwork practices, suitable for attendees of all levels. They create a safe and supportive space, adapt practices to individual needs, offer guidance, and share insights from their own experience. 

FEEL THE FORCE

QUALITY TEACHERS

FEEL THE FORCE

 Believe it or not, studies suggest that when people meditate together, it can create a ripple effect of calm throughout the space. Think about how laughter spreads in a room—have you ever started laughing just because everyone else was? The same kind of shared energy can happen in meditation. If you’re curious, come along and experience it for yourself. 

DEVELOPS HABIT

SENSE OF COMMUNITY

FEEL THE FORCE

 It’s easy to find excuses not to meditate at home. In the same way that meeting friends for a group fitness class can motivate you to exercise, joining a meditation group can give you the encouragement and accountability needed to build a consistent practice. 

ENABLES FEEDBACK

SENSE OF COMMUNITY

SENSE OF COMMUNITY

 Meditation and breathwork groups often bring together practitioners of all levels. They offer a great opportunity to talk through any challenges or questions that come up in your practice, and to share meaningful experiences with both the group and the teacher. 

SENSE OF COMMUNITY

SENSE OF COMMUNITY

SENSE OF COMMUNITY

 Humans are naturally social beings. In a meditation class, surrounded by people who share similar values, you’ll have the chance to build connections, make new friends, and deepen your sense of belonging - enhancing the benefits of your practice. And let’s be honest, everything feels better when it’s shared with others. 

An Into to Meditation

 A lot of people try meditation and quit because their mind won’t “shut up.” They think they’re doing it wrong- but that’s actually the point.


Meditation isn’t about having zero thoughts. It’s about noticing them without getting sucked in. If you can observe your thoughts, it means you’re not your thoughts- you’re the awareness behind them.


All you do is gently focus on something like your breath. When your mind wanders (it will), you just bring it back. That is meditation.


Over time, it creates a bit of space in your mind- like you’re not crammed inside every thought anymore. That space can make anxiety and low moods feel less overwhelming, help you step out of constant overthinking, and bring a sense of calm, clarity, and perspective. It’s simple, but it adds up.

An Into to Breathwork

 Breathwork isn’t the same as meditation- it’s all about using your breath to change how you feel.


When you’re stressed or anxious, your breathing gets fast and shallow, which keeps your body stuck in “fight or flight.” Breathwork helps flip that. By slowing your breath, you signal to your body that you’re safe, so everything starts to calm down- your mind included.


It’s great for reducing stress and anxiety, helping you feel more relaxed, clear, and in control. It can also make meditation easier by settling your mind first.


Some deeper breathwork can even help release built-up emotions and tension, giving you a chance to process things you might not even realise you’re holding onto.

Our Story

  

Our founder, Matt, has attended numerous wellness retreats around the world, learning from a diverse range of experienced practitioners.


Through these experiences, he witnessed first-hand the powerful impact that meditation and breathwork can have on people’s lives.


However, upon returning home to Manchester and Cheshire, Matt found it difficult to access regular group classes. Without that community, his own practice began to fade.


In May 2023, Matt experienced a devastating personal loss when his brother, Jonny, passed away. He left behind his fiancée, their six-month-old son, and a wide circle of family and friends who were deeply affected.


From this tragedy, Jonnysbreath was born - with a mission to make the benefits of breathwork and meditation accessible to as many people as possible in the local community.
