Ashley Abrman

My core background is in performance, music, and vocals. Truth is not many artists are enthusiastic about a proper and healthy lifestyle, although many of us suffer from physical and emotional discomfort.

I was diagnosed with tetany at the age of 12 with doctors concluding that “it will go away”. Many of my psychophysiological challenges continued into my early adulthood and doctors disclosed that “there is nothing they can do about it”. I refused to accept this conclusion and decided to search for solutions on my own. Being a vocalist and having a neuromuscular hypersensitivity, I sensed that something was off with my breathing. I was able to identifying my breathing as dysfunctional and decided to dive deep into understanding how breathing effects the body and mind.

At the time, I wasn’t aware of specific functional breathing techniques, but one practice that helped me to rehabilitate my body and mind were long exhales. Once I was convinced that I’m making progress in my own health, that was noticeable on a psychological and physical level, I decided to find an adequate program and start helping my own community. Oxygen Advantage has been a huge improvement to my own life and my colleagues who battle their own challenges.

I am currently located in Prague, Czechia, with frequent visits to my hometown of Houston, TX. I’m passionate about helping other artists understand their own boundaries and educating them on the complexity and intelligence of the human body, mind, and soul.
