Dr. Sly’s ability to teach functional breathing through his Breathexchange program has been invaluable for our coaches and athletes, especially learning to engage the diaphragm and abdominal core to generate power and protect the spine during heavy lifting.

The addition of Dr. Sly’s Breathexchange simulated altitude, repeat sprint ability and functional breathing to our programs with elite and professional athletes has had a tremendous impact. We are able to target their VO2 Max without added strain on their muscular and central nervous systems.

Understanding and adapting the breathing techniques taught by Dr. Sly's BreatheXchange program has completely empowered me to take back control and management of my own health, mentally and physically. Reflecting on my 33 years of experience in a national policing organization, breath education has the opportunity to empower the workforce to better manage the stress response, and performance acuity that inherently exists in the roles they play for Canada.
