Advanced Live Masterclass Cancer & Breath
– for breath professionals
A live, hands-on training for breath facilitators with Nadja Benschop
For years I’ve been teaching my online Masterclass Cancer & Breath, and again and again breath facilitators have asked me the same question: “Nadja, can you please teach us how to do this hands-on?”
This new Advanced Masterclass is my answer to that request.
Working with people who are living with cancer, during treatment or in recovery, requires clarity, grounded knowledge, and a deeply respectful approach.
Breathwork can be incredibly supportive, but only when we understand the physiology, the risks, the emotional landscape, and the specific needs of this group.
That is why I created this two-part training.
What to expect?
There are moments in life when breath becomes more than breath.
When the body is navigating treatment, uncertainty, or recovery, the way we guide someone matters deeply.
It asks for clarity.
It asks for knowledge.
It asks for a facilitator who can hold both the science and the softness.
This Advanced Masterclass was created for breathworkers who feel called to support people living with cancer. Not from fear, but from grounded presence.
You will receive
a solid theoretical foundation through a 1,5-hour online module,
and then
we meet in person for two full days of practice.
We breathe together, explore together, and learn how to offer techniques that are safe, effective, and deeply respectful of the body’s process.
My intention is simple:
to help you feel confident, informed, and steady in this sacred work.
If this is the path you feel drawn to, she would be honored to welcome you.
The Training
Theoretical Foundation (online)
You will receive a 1,5-hour video that covers everything you need to know before working with cancer patients. It includes:
-
clear explanations of what cancer is and how it affects the body
-
what breathwork can and cannot do
-
essential do’s & don’ts for facilitators
-
a practical intake guide
-
references, numbers, research articles, and a detailed hand-out you can return to anytime
This theoretical knowledge is required for the live weekend. If you have already completed my online Masterclass, you can join the weekend at a reduced rate.
Live Practice Weekend (2 full days)
This is where we bring the work to life.
During these two days, we will breathe, practice, explore, and refine. You will learn and experience:
-
specific breathing practices that are safe and effective for people with cancer
-
exercises that support clients during treatment or in recovery
-
how to hold a grounded, factually correct intake
-
how to navigate safety, boundaries, and emotional sensitivity
-
how to build confidence in your own role as a facilitator
There will be no repetition of theory — this weekend is fully dedicated to practice, embodiment, and integration.
It is my intention to not only teach you techniques, but to create a space where we learn from each other, grow together, and build a community of breathworkers who feel called to support people in one of the most vulnerable chapters of their lives.
This is sacred work. And I feel honored to guide you in it.

“I really appreciated the combination of theory and how to use it in coaching. This underlying information has given me the tools to hold a professional and simple conversation with people with cancer and to support them.”
