What is IBF?
The International Breathwork Foundation is a non-profit global network established in 1994. All our task force members are volunteers. IBF is open to everyone interested in the use of Conscious Breathing and Breathwork for health, well-being and spiritual practice.
The purpose of the IBF is to promote a heart-centred approach to breathwork, its theory and practice, for the expansion of consciousness and for personal and global transformation.

Breathwork In Action
Since 1994, IBF annually organises the Global Inspiration Conference (GIC), a week-long celebration of the breath. It is held in a different country each year, in a venue with beautiful natural surroundings. The GIC is a wonderful opportunity to exchange views, teach, learn and receive inspiration from like-minded friends and colleagues.
At the GIC you will find workshops, lectures, social events, sharing of best practice, dancing, good food, good company and lots of fun. It’s a wonderful opportunity for personal and professional growth, as well as making friends and valuable connections.
