Breathing Space Breathwork Retreats in the UK

A Breathwork Retreat to Rest, Reset, and Reconnect

Breathing Space offers breathwork retreats in the UK for people who want time away from everyday pressure. Set near Dartmoor National Park, our retreats combine guided breathwork, gentle movement, time in nature, and space to rest.

These retreats are suitable for beginners and experienced practitioners alike. You don’t need prior breathwork experience.
You just need a willingness to slow down and breathe.

What Is a Breathwork Retreat?

A breathwork retreat is time set aside to step out of your usual patterns and pay attention to your breath, to your body and to what’s actually going on beneath the surface.

At a Breathing Space retreat, breathwork is the core practice. We use conscious connected breathwork, supported by yoga, simple movement, time in nature, and shared connection.

You’ll spend time breathing together, moving gently, walking on the land, eating nourishing food, and resting. Everything is optional. You’re encouraged to listen to your body and take breaks when you need them.

Our retreats are designed to support regulation, reflection, and reconnection. We’re not here to push experiences or promise outcomes. We create a calm, supportive environment where people can meet themselves honestly.

Upcoming Breathing Space Breathwork Retreats in the UK – 2026

We’re currently planning our next UK breathwork retreat for November 2026. This retreat builds on the success of our previous retreats and introduces a few new ways to take part, depending on where you are on your breathwork path.

November 2026 Breathwork Retreat

Thursday 12 – Sunday 15 November 2026

The retreat includes guided breathwork sessions, gentle yoga and movement, time outdoors, sauna, shared meals, and plenty of space to rest.

This November retreat has a shared core experience, with a few different ways to attend. You can join for the retreat only, attend as part of a Breathwork Coaching Certification, or come as an existing facilitator for advanced professional training.

We’re opening early registration of interest while final details are being confirmed. If this retreat feels like something you’d like to be part of, registering your interest ensures you’ll be the first to receive full information, pricing, and booking access.

How This Retreat is Structured

This November retreat has a shared core experience, with three different ways to attend depending on your needs! Everyone is part of the same retreat space. The difference is why you’re coming and what you want from the experience.

Below are the three options.

1) Retreat Only (Open to the General Public)

Dates: Friday 13 – Sunday 15 November 2026

This option is for anyone who wants to experience a breathwork retreat without training or certification.

You’ll take part in the full retreat experience, including breathwork sessions, yoga and movement, time in nature, sauna, shared meals, and space to rest.

No prior breathwork experience is required.
This option is about personal exploration, rest, and reconnection.

2) Retreat + Breathwork Coaching Certification

Dates: Thursday 12 – Sunday 15 November 2026
Plus a 12-week online course

This option is for people who want to train as a Breathwork Coach.

You’ll attend the full retreat and receive access to our 12-week online Breathwork Coaching Course. The retreat forms part of your embodied learning. Certification is awarded once the online course is completed.

This option is suitable if you’re interested in working with breath professionally, or want a structured and ethical foundation in breathwork coaching, or to go deeper with your personal breathwork practice.

3) Advanced Facilitator Training + Retreat

Dates: Thursday 12 – Sunday 15 November 2026

This option is for existing breathwork facilitators who want to deepen their skills.

Alongside the full retreat experience, you’ll take part in additional advanced training sessions focused on topics such as presence, transmission, and skilled use of touch.

This pathway is designed as advanced professional development and is open only to trained facilitators or breathwork coaches.

Shared Retreat Experience

All three pathways come together for the core retreat experience from Friday 13 – Sunday 15 November. This shared space is intentional. It supports community, integration, and learning across experience levels, while keeping training boundaries clear.

If you’re unsure which option is right for you, registering your interest allows us to guide you to the most suitable pathway. You are always welcome to email us with any questions at breathe@makesomebreathingspace.com. We read and respond to all emails personally.

About Your Hosts

Benedict Beaumont

Benedict's journey to breathwork was a winding one. Escaping a stifling teaching career, he found clarity and purpose in the mountains of Nepal. A chance breathwork session ignited a passion, but the path to sharing this gift wasn't easy. Frustrated by the lack of support for new practitioners, he built Breathing Space from the ground up starting with running dozens of breathwork and yoga retreats.

Benedict's retreats are infused with community, connection and empowerment. He weaves his own transformative experiences, offering a warm, down-to-earth space where you're empowered to step into your full potential. Benedict believes that breathwork is for everyone. His mission is to help you bring the power of breathwork to your every day life, create positive change, and experience the profound sense of belonging he found on his own journey.

Jennifer Nolan

Jennifer, a registered nurse and proudly neurodivergent, found her way to breathwork with a healthy dose of skepticism, nudged along by her partner, Benedict Beaumont. But what started as a reluctant experiment blossomed into a deep passion for creating safe, empowering, and truly transformative retreat experiences.

Understanding the unique needs of neurodivergent individuals, Jennifer is dedicated to crafting trauma-informed spaces where everyone feels welcome and supported. She believes in the power of small, thoughtful touches to elevate a retreat from ordinary to extraordinary.

With a love for travel, two energetic little ones, and the joyful chaos of life, Jennifer finds solace and creative expression in the kitchen. For her, cooking and baking for retreats is a moving meditation, an opportunity to infuse each dish with love.

At Breathing Space retreats, Jennifer's warmth, compassion, and culinary artistry combine to create a nurturing environment where you can breathe deeply, heal fully, and connect authentically.
