Simon Yuen - Breathwork Facilitator & Educator
Simon Yuen is a Breathwork Facilitator, Educator and founder of Erthe Life, a breathwork and wellness studio based in Chatswood, Sydney.
With more than 20 years of experience across fitness, movement and wellness, Simon's work has evolved from physical training and movement into a deeper exploration of breathwork, somatics, bodywork, nervous system regulation and sound.
Today, he facilitates workshops, ceremonies, retreats and professional trainings across Australia and Asia, and has guided thousands of people through breathwork and embodied practices.
Simon's Approach to Breathwork, Somatics & Bodywork
Simon's approach is grounded in the understanding that meaningful change doesn't come from forcing the body, but from learning how to listen to it.
His work integrates Conscious Connected Breathing, Rebirthing Breathwork, functional breathing, somatic bodywork and sound healing, working with the body, breath and nervous system as a whole.
Over the years, Simon has trained and studied with world-renowned breathwork teachers, sound healers and practitioners across a range of mind-body disciplines. He brings these influences into his own embodied practice and teachings, shaped by both personal experience and years of facilitating others.
His approach is experiential and trauma-informed, with an emphasis on presence, safety and meeting each person where they are.
Experience
Simon began his career as a Personal Trainer and Movement Coach, with more than two decades of experience in physical training, bodyweight movement, Animal Flow, primal movement and floorwork.
His ongoing studies have expanded into Pranayama, breathwork, somatics, bodywork, sound healing, nervous system regulation and cold exposure.
This multidisciplinary background continues to shape how Simon works and teaches today, bringing together an understanding of movement, breath, the body and nervous system.
Training the Next Generation of Space Holders
A significant part of Simon's work today is dedicated to breathwork facilitator training, somatic education and bodywork training.
Through immersive trainings and ongoing mentoring, he supports emerging and experienced facilitators in developing the practical skills, awareness and confidence needed to work safely and responsibly with others.
Beyond learning techniques, Simon's teaching places a strong emphasis on personal practice, embodiment, presence and the capacity to hold space.
At the heart of his teaching is a philosophy that has shaped his own journey:
“We can only take others as deep as we have been willing to go ourselves.”
Erthe Life
Simon founded Erthe Life as a space for breathwork, movement, sound and embodied practices in Chatswood, Sydney.
At the heart of Erthe Life is a simple intention: to create a grounded space where people can slow down, reconnect with themselves and develop a deeper relationship with their body and breath.
Today, Erthe Life brings together Simon's years of experience and continues to evolve as a space for personal practice, community and professional education.
