How the hour works

Your questions set the agenda

The hour is loosely built around four themes, so there’s room for the questions that matter most across breathing for health, performance and client work. Ask about a specific client, a technique you want to get right, or which approach fits the work you do.

  1. The basics, done right

    What functional breathing actually means, nasal vs. mouth breathing, and the simple things worth getting right first.

  2. Breathing for everyday health

    Sleep, stress, anxiety, asthma and congestion — the Buteyko side of Patrick’s work and where it fits.

  3. Movement, performance & sport

    Breathing for exercise, recovery and focus — the Oxygen Advantage side, for the athletes and active clients you train.

  4. Using it with your clients

    How to introduce breathing into real sessions, what to watch for, and where people most often go wrong.

Is this for you?

If you work with people, yes

  • You coach, train, treat or teach — and breathing keeps coming up with your clients.
  • You’ve tried a technique or two and want to understand what’s actually going on.
  • You’ve been weighing up training with us and want to know which path fits before you decide.
  • You’re simply curious about breathing and want to ask the source directly.

Your host

Patrick McKeown

Founder of Oxygen Advantage® and Buteyko Clinic International®, and the author of several books on breathing for health, sleep and performance. For more than two decades Patrick has taught breathing to clinicians, coaches, athletes and everyday people — and trained the instructors who now teach it worldwide.

This is a rare chance to put your own questions to him directly.

Good to know

Questions, answered

Is it really free?

Yes — completely free to join, live. Register and you’ll also get the replay afterwards.

How do I ask Patrick a question?

Just bring it on the day. You’ll be able to put your questions to Patrick live during the session — there’s nothing to submit in advance.

Will it be recorded?

Yes. It streams on our YouTube Live and is open for anyone to watch. Everyone who registers also gets the replay by email.

What will it cover — Oxygen Advantage or Buteyko?

Both. Patrick founded both, so expect questions on breathing for performance and sport (Oxygen Advantage) and on breathing for everyday health like sleep, stress and asthma (Buteyko Clinic International). Ask about whichever is relevant to your work.

I’m trying to decide which training is right for me — can I ask about that?

Yes. If you’ve been weighing up Oxygen Advantage or Buteyko, or simply wondering where to start, this is a good place to ask. Patrick can help you understand the difference and what suits your clients or your own goals. It’s a Q&A, not a sales pitch — come with your questions and leave with a clearer picture.

I’m a certified OA or Buteyko instructor — should I come?

You’re welcome, but this one is aimed at client-facing questions rather than teaching-level depth. For that, we run monthly instructor refreshers. The next are on Sunday 6 December at 10:00 AM and 4:00 PM (GMT) — two times so you can pick the one that suits your zone.

Where does it take place?

Live on Zoom (you’ll get the link when you register) and streamed publicly on our YouTube Live.

What time is it where I am?

It starts at 1:00 PM Irish time (GMT) — that’s 2:00 PM in Central Europe, 8:00 AM US Eastern, 5:00 AM US Pacific, and 6:30 PM in India. If your zone isn’t listed, a quick search for “1pm GMT in my time” will sort it.

Bring your questions on the 26th
