Premise

The underlying the Fire & Ice practice is that being exposed to intense heat and cold is actually good for our bodies and our minds. This information is not new - for thousands of years, many cultures around the world have ancient traditions involving saunas and cold water baths. But, with modern science, we can prove that it is good for us, and understand why (see Why Fire & Ice). Ultimately, Fire & Ice is an empowering deep-dive into what it means to be human: to learn, to practice, to push yourself, to support others, and to feel alive and nourished.

Logistics

Fire & Ice Workshops last between 1.5 to 2.5 hours. We begin the workshops by discussing types of physiological and psychological stress, and the relationship between the human stress response and breathing. Next, we teach breath-work techniques that give you the power to alter your stress response, by directly regulating your autonomic nervous system. Finally, we spend most of the workshop in the hot and cold environments, practicing the techniques and exploring new experiences - all with the support and guidance of a skilled coach and a seasoned community.
