Michael Watts is a seasoned performance coach, father of 2, and a master when it comes to breath work. Mike has worked extensively with athletes at the highest levels, including English Premier League Clubs and National Teams in China and England. Central to his operating philosophy is functional breathing, recognizing its crucial impact on recovery and overall athletic performance.
In this episode, we get into what inspired Mike to get into coaching, some of his thoughts around how breathing and movement can be incorporated into parenting practices or everyday experiences, get an understanding of how our body's systems operate in stressful situations, and get a demonstration from Mike in using functional breath work to recenter, relax, increase focus, or ratchet up performance. So take a slow, deep breath and let's get into it.
