Doug
I have over 20 years experience as a practising Rebirthing Practitioner and committee member with the British Rebirth Society. My other work includes Shiatsu and Couple Relationship Counselling. I also work as a group facilitator for a number of organisations. The way I work with clients is to encourage each person to trust their own inner wisdom. I live with my teenage daughter in Bristol. My passion is walking in nature. Visit my website at http://www.dougsawyer.co.uk
Brigitte
I have been a practicing Rebirther for the last 15 years and was involved with personal growth for many years before that. Registered with the British Rebirth Society since my arrival in this country in 1997, I also served on its Committee for 4 years. I am presently the President of the International Breathwork Foundation, the worldwide collective of professionals dedicated to practicing healing through breathing techniques. I come originally from Switzerland (French speaking part), but lived and worked in Lesotho, Venezuela and Spain.
I believe that the most powerful way to make the world a better place is to start with ourselves, and that the breath is a very powerful yet simple way to achieve that. I'm passionate about making a difference to individuals as well as globally. My other passions are walking in glorious Devon, where I live with my husband and our 15-year-old daughter, and singing sacred music with the Exeter Philharmonic Choir.
Our Company Avalon Institute of Rebirthing (A.I.R.) is a new enterprise designed to support the development of our students through Rebirthing and Group-Work.
