Early bird extended until 27 April 

Good news for everybody who wanted to book with an early bird discount and did not do it yet: we have extended our early bird until 27 April. This is Kings Day in the Netherlands, so we do not only celebrate his birthday, but also your presence at the GIC2024.  

Forms for workshop leaders now available on www.gic2024.nl

We would like to ask everyone coming to the GIC who is planning on offering a workshop to fill in the form for the workshop leaders. You can find it on our website www.gic2024.nl under the heading "workshops". It would be great for the first time GICers to see the diversity and variety in the workshops presented at the GIC.

Mariët Bakker GIC 2024 organiser will talk at WBD 

On 11 April, World Breathing Day, GIC organiser Mariët Bakker will be part of the well composed online program for World Breathing Day. Her talk will be at 14.30 CEST. In case you have any questions or issues you want to discuss, you can send them to Robin Lawley. 

Announcement of last two keynote speakers at GIC 2024

The GIC 2024 organisers are happy and proud to learn that there are so many  people who are passionate about the breath and could talk about it. So it was not easy to make a decision as to who to ask as a keynote speaker. A light criterion with the selection was to show what is happening in the Netherlands. We are proud and happy to announce the last two keynote speakers – in the end we invited six speakers, you can read about the other four in previous IBF newsletters, or on our website www.gic2024.nl . 

Aad Havermans

Aad Havermans will talk about on how breath and cold co-operate as transformative tools. In his keynote speech he will blend his  personal experiences with examples from recent scientific research, offering a holistic view of the profound synergy between breathwork and cold exposure.

Kasper van der Meulen

Kasper van der Meulen, Biohacker, is an influential breathworker in the NL, especially with a younger following. In his keynote speech he will explore the connection between scientific/reductionist thinking and holistic/spiritual thinking and how the breath can serve as a bridge to bring those fields together.
