Dr Sara Matchett is a certified Breathwork Practitioner, Lead Trainer of Fitzmaurice Voicework®, a Performance-Maker, and Associate Professor at UCT’s Centre for Theatre, Dance & Performance Studies. Her interests are in embodied practices that focus on presencing, co-sensing, collaborating and co-generating as a way of transforming ‘egosystems’ to ‘ecosystems’. Her practice is premised on the understanding that all living beings, both human and other-than-human, are connected by breath. The engagement of conscious breathing enables clients to experience the inter and intra-connectedness of all things and enhances a profound understanding of breath and how it can support emotional regulation and self-knowledge.  

Sara offers her clients an integrated experience of breath, body, voice and imagination to enable them to discover their unique embodiment and enjoy greater freedom, creativity, and presence. She does this by engaging breath as the catalyst and thread that weaves a connection between body, voice and imagination. By paying attention to the breath and how it associates with felt perception nurtures a relational body that is more perceptive and responsive.

Sara offers individual and group Breathwork classes for adults and young people.​

From early childhood, Morag had an unwavering desire to train as a nurse and midwife and as such she practiced for many years in various provinces in SA.   Her interest in holistic therapies led her to train in reflexology, reiki to mastery, holistic massage and in 2002, in BodyTalk to Instructor level.  

​

Breathwork became the thread that wove through these modalities and since her year of Advanced Practitioner training last year, she enjoys the privilege of encouraging clients in breath awareness and shows them various breathing techniques to support them in these stressful times.   These can be enjoyed individually or in a group session, online or in person.

As a Holistic Integrated Counsellor, Sara first stumbled upon breathwork while searching for a somatic tool to help her clients experiencing trauma and anxiety. What she found instead, was a powerful experience that transformed her own life. 

Sara’s therapy practice takes a holistic approach to growth and healing, bringing together mind and body practices through talk therapy, walk and talk therapy, breathwork and meditation. She provides a soft place to land — a containing space of unconditional, non-judgmental support to those seeking the clarity to live with increased insight, personal power, and purpose.

From enhancing endurance as a runner to linking breath with movement in a yoga class, supporting everyday well-being, or diving into the profound depths of conscious connected breathwork, Tammy’s approach is rooted in making breath a practical and transformative part of life.

Shaamiela Safodien is a seasoned Registered Counsellor, with an Integrative counselling practice. She works at the intersection of Psychology, Spirituality, and the Somatic experience. Her counselling philosophy is grounded in a holistic and humanistic approach with mindfulness as the guiding principle.

​

She weaves into her practice and sessions acquired learnings of Mindfulness, Energy healing and Breathwork, and sees the breath as the great integrator. One that brings the client into the fullness of their body and somatic experience and makes way for their sensory and feeling self to emerge and be witnessed.

​

Shaamiela believes that the conscious breath is an experience of true intimacy with the self. In facilitation of sessions, she encourages clients to allow the breath to invite them into their internal world, with a gentle, safe and effective embrace which often enables trauma release, regulation and integration. Through this she believes the individual is called to recognise and restore their wholeness and live more fully.

​

Shaamiela also holds a space for the “feminine breath”, in her work of heart centered embodiment with women who wish to live in alignment with their feminine nature, using the breath as their anchor.

​

She facilitates both individual and group breathwork sessions.

Breathwork has always been a journey of returning — to oneself, to the body, to essence, to community, to nature, and to the present moment. It is a return to the core, drawing a full circle that embraces the entirety of who we are. Breath by breath, we come back to ourselves, rediscover the strength in connection to others, and find safety in being fully present in life.

​

The profound power of breathwork, both as a mindfulness practice and a means of embodiment, continues to amaze me. Whether through gentle, calming techniques or more intense, transformative sessions, the breath holds space for safety and self-regulation. My deepest desire is for everyone to experience this sense of safety within their own bodies, understanding that the body holds onto what it does not yet have the capacity to release or integrate.

​

With a background in Physiotherapy and Pilates, I bring the intricate relationship between movement and breath into my breathwork practice. I am passionate about how our bodies, our experiences, and our breath are interconnected—a truth that is central to the work I share and the space I create for others to explore.
