Meet Your Teachers

Alan Dolan

Alan Dolan, founder of Breathguru®, will be your private mentor throughout this journey, offering guidance, counselling, support, and advice on your breathwork and facilitator journey

When discovering Conscious Connected Breathing some 20 years ago, Alan was amazed by its rapid, tangible and permanent effects. Far from being just another self development modality, Breathwork turned out to be the most powerful tool he had – and has – ever encountered. Ever since, his purpose has been to support as many people as possible to understand and benefit from the power of their own Breath.

Alan has studied with some of the primary teachers in the world of Breath and has hybridised his own unique style of Conscious Connected Breathing. Alan’s key message is that “YOU are the guru and your breath is the key”.

Natalia Blake

Breathguru® Graduate and Coach Natalia Blake will be your supportive guide during the weekly online training

Natalia is a breathwork facilitator, holistic coach, reiki master, and psychotherapist who specialises in online work. She felt aligned with Breathguru® from the moment she met Alan in 2017 and feels passionate about sharing the power of breathwork and the possibilities of having a global impact through online work. In addition to her studies with Alan, Natalia has studied with other major breathwork schools.

Natalia has combined her extensive experience working online as a breathwork facilitator, coach, and energy healer to create a unique and powerful training to equip you with the right tools to offer this healing modality online as part of your work.

Harsha - Breathguru Graduate

He has an innate ability to instil trust and he approaches teaching with a unique warmth and genuine care”

Hanna Evans - Breathguru graduate

“The training exceeded all my expectations. I felt supported, seen, and held in a way I hadn’t experienced before in any other training. I feel more whole. Alan’s mission to share the healing power of breathwork is moving and inspiring. He’s not hands- off or distant but a warm and compassionate teacher”
