About the Teacher
Why study with them?
Maarten Hemmen is a breathwork coach, bodyworker, and facilitator dedicated to helping people reconnect with themselves through the power of breath, movement, and presence. With a background in Martial Arts, public speaking / coaching / body-based practices, he has guided individuals and groups across Europe in workshops and retreats focused on transformation and resilience.
Maarten is the founder of Natural Breathing® Movement, an approach that combines science, embodied practice, and mindful awareness to restore balance in body, mind, and nervous system. His work integrates breathwork, cold exposure, bodywork, and coaching in a way that is accessible, down-to-earth, and deeply impactful.
Passionate about creating safe and authentic spaces, Maarten believes that real transformation happens when we step out of our comfort zone while being supported and seen. Participants describe his guidance as grounded, compassionate, and powerful, opening doors to deeper awareness, emotional release, and lasting change.
When not facilitating, Maarten speaks on creativity, leadership, and human potential, and continues to explore the edges of personal growth through nature, movement, and connection.
