Did you know?

The May 2022 NCAA Athlete Well-Being Study confirms that college athletes are experiencing increased levels of stress - 150-250% higher than identified before the COVID-19 pandemic. Stress is one major factor affecting the breath health of athletes which causes dysfunctional breathing. Many athletes are suffering from poor breath health. A recent Japan study found that out of 2,000 athletes, 90% had dysfunctional breathing. (May 2022, Shimozawa, Y)

Dysfunctional breathing creates an experience of fight or flight in which fuels panic and anxiety.

Joe's breath training workshop at IMG Academy was an eye-opening experience. Joe highlighted the impact that breath training has on cognition in a way that was informative and interactive, and we are now equipped with more refined techniques to help maximize our students' potential both on and off the field.
Hannah, Triathlete, Masters in Health Science

I was incredibly humbled after my breath training session with Joe. I had to break down everything I thought I knew about this mindset in order to connect my breath to my body. Within an hour I had a completely different understanding of how to approach my training sessions! For novice to elite athletes, I would recommend mental performance coaching through Joe to anyone looking to take their competitions to the next level!
Bailey Thompson, Athlete

Breathing exercises have greatly improved my cardio endurance, energy levels, and even my skin. I can now run a mile without chest pain and have reduced yawning and sighing. I practice walking breath holds at the gym and other techniques when anxious or before bed. Highly recommend Coach Somodi for overall well-being.
