Martin’s course is very thorough. It helped me create a better foundation and understanding of the science to not only help me improve my own health but to also bring it to my business. It helped me reshape the Group Training, Performance Breath Training (P.B.T.), and one on one work with clients to design a better product for all. The P.B.T. Class structure was good, but now is better than anything I see out there. The work I do with clients one on one has shifted where their breath practice is a big foundation to what we do. I am excited to keep learning more through his community and encourage those interested in being better Trainers, and Coaches to dive into his work. You will be challenged with what you think you know about the breath. You will not be disappointed.

As the name suggests, The School of Breath Science is unparalleled in its dedication to keeping up with the latest science around breath. Martin takes it a step further, teaching you how to apply the breath in real life and working with people - not only from a physiological standpoint, but a biopsychosocial perspective. He makes it enjoyable, understandable and gives you the tools you need to be successful as a coach or applying this work to your own life. The Breath Science Certification is comprehensive and challenging, but makes perfect sense as the modules layer upon one another. Highly highly recommend for anyone interested in pursuing this work from a career standpoint, or enhancing/expanding your toolkit as a therapist, movement professional, or general practitioner. Thank you, Martin!

Martin is an exceptional breath scientist, teacher, trainer, and mentor! When I first came across his work and felt his passion for breath science and functional breathing, I was immediately intrigued.Enrolling in his mentorship program turned out to be one of the best decisions I could have made, not only as a breathwork coach, but also as a budding entrepreneur.His mentorship was incredibly comprehensive, equipping me with a deep understanding of the biomechanical, biochemical, and psychophysiological aspects of functional breathing, as well as the practical tools and techniques required to apply that knowledge effectively.Throughout the entire program, Martin was extremely supportive, encouraging, and was always available to answer questions and offer guidance, feedback, and insight.I am deeply grateful for the opportunity to have trained with and learned from someone as masterful and passionate about this work as Martin, someone who is truly committed to helping others grow and succeed.If you are looking to deepen your knowledge in breathwork and be mentored by a world-class scientist, look no further. I highly recommend him and all of his training programs!

Martin's School of Breath Science was the best training I've invested in. After many years and multiple breathwork certificates, this one sealed the deal and catapulted my career as a Breath Coach. Martin's knowledge, experience and delivery of the information is exceptional. Thanks for all you do for the global breathwork community, Martin.

I cannot recommend Martin McPhilimey and his Breath Science program highly enough. Martin’s teaching has fundamentally elevated how I deliver my work as a Breath Science Practitioner. The depth, clarity, and rigour of the material has strengthened not only my understanding of breath physiology and nervous system regulation, but my confidence in applying it skilfully and responsibly with real people in real life.The program covers an exceptional breadth of topics, including functional breathing mechanics, carbon dioxide tolerance, chemoreceptor sensitivity, nervous system regulation, sleep and circadian rhythm, stress and recovery, and how breathing patterns influence cognition, emotion, and behaviour. Importantly, this is not taught in isolation everything is contextualised within real human lives and real nervous systems.What truly sets this program apart is that it is genuinely up to date. Martin continually refines and refreshes the content in line with current research and clinical understanding, rather than relying on outdated models or oversimplified breathwork narratives. The science is taught with precision, but always translated into practical, ethical application.I completed the one-to-one program over several months while working full time, and Martin was an exceptional teacher throughout. He is clear, grounded, and deeply invested in ensuring the learning translates into safe and effective practice. His ability to explain complex physiology, challenge assumptions, and support clinical reasoning is outstanding.This training is not about pushing intensity or chasing altered states. It’s about understanding how breath actually works in the body, how it interacts with the nervous system, and how it can be used to support regulation, resilience, and capacity in everyday life.I would highly recommend this program to anyone working or intending to work, with people who need real, evidence-based support, and who want a science-led framework that genuinely holds up in practice.

Martin’s course has not only informed a great deal of how I personally move through life, with a much clearer understanding of my own physiology and psychology but greatly increased my coaching capacity and how to facilitate.I couldn’t recommend his course and resources enough, I think he is leading the field when it comes to breath and sleep science.

In 2025, I started the Breath Science Certification, and it filled in all the gaps I still felt were missing from past trainings and programs I’ve completed.Martin is extremely knowledgeable and continually updates the material as the science evolves. He presents complex topics in a way that’s easy to understand, even for those of us without a strong science background.I highly recommend this course to anyone interested in the nervous system, breathwork, sleep, and enhancing overall performance through health.Thank you, Martin!

Participating in Martin’s Breath Science Certification through The School of Breath Science was a game changer for both personal and professional development.There is no other training or certification out there like it.Martin integrates a large aspect of holistic health, so while you learn about the breath on a deep psychophysiological level - it’s also paired alongside sleep, burnout, nervous system and social aspects of development - and there influences on health.The certification provides a strong framework work for safe, individualised and evidence-informed practices and assessments when working with clients. It teaches you how to support nuance - personally this helped shape my confidence in delivery.Martin communicates with clarity, makes what are complex theories or themes more digestible, is ethical, considerate and I found him trustworthy in his approach.I’d recommend this certification and community to anyone looking to develop their practice.
