In a world that moves fast, demands resilience, and often forgets stillness, Dan Brulé has become the voice – and breath – of transformation. Recognized as the Global Breathwork Master & Transformational Coach to Watch in 2025, Brulé’s influence spans continents, cultures, and millions of lives. His work has shaped wellness trends, leadership evolution, and personal development methodologies with a single foundational message: the breath is the bridge between who we are – and who we can become.
A Humble Beginning with a Higher Calling
Dan Brulé’s journey began in New Bedford, Massachusetts, where his upbringing and twelve years in Catholic school instilled discipline and an early curiosity for spirituality and healing. His path took a defining turn during his time as a medical diver in the U.S. Navy during the Vietnam era. There, he witnessed firsthand the relationship between stress, performance, recovery – and breath.
What began as observation evolved into devotion. Armed with a master’s degree in Healing Arts from Lesley University, Brulé immersed himself into ancient breath traditions, including Prana Yoga, Qigong, and Rebirthing. His travels and studies led him to world masters, healers, and wisdom keepers, inspiring him to fuse ancient breathwork with modern science – a breakthrough that would shape a global movement.
Breathmastery: Elevating Breath to a Global Practice
In the 1970s, Brulé became one of the first Western leaders to champion rebirthing and conscious breathing. His passion led to the creation of Breathmastery, now one of the world’s most respected breathwork education platforms.
Over five decades, Dan Brulé has trained more than 300,000 individuals across 75+ countries – a staggering global ripple of transformation. His courses, online programs, and certification frameworks have helped everyday individuals, trauma survivors, athletes, and leaders turn breath into a tool of clarity, healing, power, and inner freedom.
From Technique to Transformation
Brulé’s breathwork approach is intentionally accessible yet deeply transformative. Among his most influential practices are:
- Conscious Breathing for emotional balance and presence
- Diaphragmatic Breathing to activate natural healing responses
- Therapeutic Breathing Zone optimizing health through slow breathing
- The Anti Depression Breath, also called the Diamond Breath and Fountain Breath
- Spiritual Breathing, also called Subtle Energy Breathing: the merging of Outer Breath which is Air with Inner Breath which is Spirit.
These techniques have been adopted by Navy SEALs, Olympic athletes, medical professionals, corporate executives, and wellness practitioners, with outcomes ranging from enhanced performance and creativity to trauma recovery and emotional reset.
Breathwork in Leadership and Modern Life
For Dan Brulé, breathwork is not simply a practice – it is a way of being. His widely taught mantra, “Open and expand on the inhale, relax and let go on the exhale” anchors his philosophy of intentional living.
His teachings have been incorporated into programs from the American Red Cross to major Fortune 500 leadership retreats, where breathwork supports emotional intelligence, resilience, conflict navigation, and focus. In a world battling burnout, Brulé offers a grounded path forward – breath by breath.
