Meet AD

Barefoot and Breathe Founder

Hey Family, AD here.

I’m a proud family man, blessed with two beautiful children and a partner who is nothing short of a goddess. My journey has been all about embracing who I am, doing the inner work for myself, my family, and the greater community we’re all a part of. My commitment is to create a safe, loving space for those ready to take a leap into the unknown, heal deeply, and live as the embodiment of their pure authentic self.

Here’s a bit of my story:

In December 2022, my life was forever transformed through a powerful breathwork journey. Before that, I was lost, insecure, and disconnected from myself. I struggled with self-hatred, shyness, anger, anxiety, and depression—and I was numb to most of my emotions.

As I continued my healing journey, peeling back the layers of past trauma and emotional triggers, I’ve come to realize my true self. Now, I live free from limiting beliefs and mental blocks. I know who I am at my core, and I truly believe that I can do, be, and create anything I desire in this lifetime.

Today, my life is filled with love, light, and wisdom. I’m deeply committed to sharing the transformative power of the practices that have changed my life with anyone who is ready to step into their own healing journey.

Our mission

We acknowledge a deep belief in the transformative power of the body and breath to heal, restore, and awaken. We are dedicated to guiding individuals on a journey of self-discovery, inner peace, and profound healing through modalities like Breakthrough Breathwork.

We understand that the body holds within it the stories, emotions, and experiences of a lifetime. Through somatic practices, we tap into this wisdom, allowing you to release what no longer serves you, reconnect with your true essence, and create space for deep emotional and spiritual growth. Breakthrough Breathwork, in particular, is a powerful tool that enables people to access altered states of consciousness, where profound healing can take place—often in ways words cannot reach.

Our mission is to help people reclaim their power, heal old wounds, and reconnect with their inner light. Because every person has the potential to unlock their fullest expression of well-being, love, and joy. We walk alongside you with compassion and reverence for your unique journey, creating a safe space for healing and self-discovery to unfold in its own divine time and form.

Ultimately, we envision a world where people live more freely and fully in their bodies, honour their emotions and have the tools to navigate life with greater clarity, presence, and peace. Through modalities like Breathwork, we aim to be a catalyst for this change—one breath at a time.

3 pillars to change

BREATHE

Breathwork is one of the most grounding, profound and transformative modalities we have at our immediate access.

There are two primary ways we harness the breath’s potential here;

  1. to anchor us into the present, and fully experience the gift of the now

  1. to access deep states of healing, cleansing and rejuvenation.

AWAKEN

Using the breath to anchor yourself in the present or to access deep healing states opens the door to innate awareness and sacred wisdom

This profound clarity illuminates your truth—your dreams, desires, values, and beliefs—guiding you on your life’s journey.

Through this process, you awaken your true essence, align with your authentic self, and create a life that reflects your deepest truth.

TRANSFORM

The true transformation doesn’t happen during the experience itself—it lies in the integration: the process of embodying those changes in your daily life.

With the natural desire to live your best life and the awakenings and wisdom you've gained, you begin to integrate them with love, compassion, grace, and kindness.

This is where the real shift occurs, as you take the insights you’ve received and weave them into the fabric of who you are. It’s through this integration that your life starts to reflect the truth of your soul, aligning with your deepest purpose and creating lasting change.

Through the process of reliving, releasing trauma, and embodying your true self, you also let go of the feelings that no longer serve you. You release worthlessness, anxiety, stress, depression, and all other low-vibrational emotions. In their place, you step into a new sense of power, courage, love, and freedom, allowing you to be bold and fully express who you’re meant to be!

Are you ready to be the change your craving?
