Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu workshops

Breathwork as a weapon on the mats.

Most grapplers never think about their breath until they're gassing out. These workshops change that — permanently.

After climbing Kilimanjaro with Wim Hof and training with Rickson Gracie, Miles developed two workshops specifically for jiu-jitsu practitioners. The result: sharper focus, more gas, less competition anxiety, and faster recovery.

Breath Fitness jiu-jitsu workshop

Two workshop formats

One for academies. One for serious competitors.

Both workshops can be brought to your academy. Both are built specifically for Brazilian jiu-jitsu — not adapted from a generic wellness curriculum.

Seminar format

  • 90 minutes of science, breathing mechanics, exercises, and guided breathwork
  • 60 minutes of 10 × 5 minute rounds — breath training under pressure
  • Joint injury repair and prevention exercises

Best for: academies looking to add a high-value seminar that directly improves student performance.

Where it comes from

Wim Hof and Rickson Gracie were on parallel paths.

Both men discovered — through entirely different disciplines — that breath is the most powerful performance tool a human being possesses. Miles trained with both. These workshops are what he built from those experiences.

For grapplers: better focus during rolls, more energy at the end of class, less anxiety before competition, and stronger short and long-term recovery. Not theory — tools you apply on the mat Monday.
