David has always had a passion for nature and the element of water, in all its forms, including ice and snow. He started teaching thirteen years ago. At the time as a sailing instructor and ski and snowboard instructor. Unconsciously he was always looking for a connection with Mother Nature. After his own profound experiences with the healing power of breath and cold water therapy in 2019, he has made a change in his career. He started to assist Bart Biermans, the owner of “Below Zero. David also studied with Michael Bijker, founder of “Life Awareness Project”. From there he started coaching his own ice water immersions and facilitating breathwork in Amsterdam. When David started organizing his own yoga & breathwork retreats in 2021 and founded Icebreath. As he developed more, he also began to feel that this was what he really wanted.
