Brighton: Wim Hof Method Advanced Course
June 23rd 2019
Wim Hof Method Advanced – 6 hours course
Join Tim van der Vliet, a licensed Wim Hof Method instructor and a friend of Wim Hof for a transforming Wim Hof Method Advanced Course.
Tim believes that everyone should have access to simple and effective practices to improve focus and reduce stress, enhance mental and physical performance, boost immune system and increase cold tolerance.
In this workshop you will learn the advanced techniques of Wim Hof Method which are not covered in the Fundamentals workshop.
Who is this suitable for?
– Anyone who has been to any WHM Fundamentals workshop
– Anyone who is following the WHM online course
– Anyone who has experience in the basic WHM breathing exercise and is familiar with cold exposure
The Advanced workshop is not about pushing the limits but getting a deeper understanding of your body physiology and how you can influence it with the Wim Hof Method. We will however explore boundaries without peer pressure.

HOW TO PREPARE:
At this stage you have the basic understanding of the breathing physiology. To get the most out of this workshop you should regularly practice the basic WHM breathing exercise.
You also have some experience in cold exposure. If you would like to make the most out of the two ice bath sessions you should regularly expose yourself to the cold. It’s not about how long you can stay under a cold shower but being aware how your body is reacting to the changes in temperature. The advanced workshop is not about pushing the limits but getting a deeper understanding of how your body regulates temperature. Shorter and less intensive cold sessions are advised but with more attention.
Everyone can participate to their own ability and level of comfort. No pressure, just fun day of new experiences and learning. If you have any health conditions or concerns please contact us beforehand and/or check with your doctor.
It is best to eat something light before the workshop.
