Wim Hof Method Workshops in Tallinn & Estonia

01 Fundamentals

This workshop is designed for everyone — whether you’re completely new to the method or already experienced with cold water or breathwork. No previous experience is needed, only curiosity and an open mind.

Here we learn about the 3 pillars of the method: breathing, cold exposure, and mindset. We learn about the science behind the method and what happens in the body and the mind during breathing and cold exposure. We learn how to enter and stay in the cold water safely by controlling our breath.

“This was my second time joining the fundamentals workshop with Gaetan! I came back because I loved it the first time. This time it was a very different experience and I loved it even more! Gaetan made me find an inner strength that I didn't even know I had, and again made me feel part of a community. It's a great and life-changing experience and I recommend it to everyone! “

Luisa Nora

02 Breathing class

The breathing class is open to everyone, whether you are not sure if you want to join a fundamentals workshop yet or you simply want to keep your practice going.

These are very practical classes, no theory, no physiology, only breathing. Gain more energy, clear and calm mind and connection with like-minded people.

This session is usually followed by a cold dip at the sea in group.

03 Advanced class

The advanced workshop is dedicated for the people who have already participated in a fundamentals workshop (with me or any other instructor in the world).

It is designed to explore the method deeper and to learn more about the power of the mind. We explore deeper the science behind the method and tools to strengthen our mind and body.

“Gaetan lead great breathing session that allowed me to relax after a busy week. I had never experienced laughter during a breathing session. The power of the group made staying in cold water easier than expected. “

Kenty Dubois

“I attended the advanced Wim Hof workshop with Gaétan last weekend and, as usual, it was a powerful experience. He's great at bringing out the best of all participants and making sure we all feel safe to let go of our fears and worries and enjoy the present moment."

04 Weekend retreat

3-day, all-inclusive Wim Hof Method retreat in the Estonian countryside: breathwork, cold exposure, sauna, yoga and community. Runs twice a year: one in the winter time and one in autumn.

The weekend retreat is designed for everyone! Learn practical tools to regulate your nervous system, boost energy, and build resilience.

This 3-day retreat includes different activities on-site and in the nature: sauna, breathing session, hikes, cold dip, games, sharing, a bit of science and philosophy of the method.

“This weekend was much more than a workshop. It felt like a real journey.”

"Through the breathing sessions, yoga, cold exposure and time in nature, I experienced something both challenging and deeply energizing. Each activity complemented the others and created a powerful balance between effort, calm and awareness.

One of the most memorable moments for me was walking several kilometers in the cold wearing only shorts and later entering the ice baths. Surprisingly, what stayed with me was not the cold itself, but the sense of calm and presence that appeared during those moments. It was a powerful reminder of how much our mindset and breathing can influence our body.

Another beautiful aspect of the weekend was the atmosphere. The group quickly became a supportive and open community where everyone encouraged each other to step slightly outside their comfort zone. The guidance throughout the retreat was excellent: professional, attentive and always creating a safe environment for everyone. I leave this weekend feeling stronger, clearer and very grateful for the experience. It was both inspiring and transformative, and I would absolutely recommend it to anyone curious about discovering their own inner strength. “

Want to start off
at your own pace?

1:1 sessions are for everyone, but especially for people who are less comfortable with a group setup, or have a tight schedule.

The session can last 2-3 hours and teaches you basic knowledge about the Wim Hof method and the science behind it, followed by a guided breathing session and a cold dip, often with the sauna (in winter time).

You will leave energized, empowered and relaxed at the same time.

“Gaetans enthusiasm for his work and the genuine care he shows for his clients can be felt from the moment you step inside. He was kind, fully present, and deeply professional. He created a safe and welcoming space where we instantly felt at ease. I wholeheartedly recommend working with Gaetanhis energy, presence, and skill make the experience truly special. “

Frequently asked questions

1. What is the Wim Hof Method?

It’s a natural method to reconnect with yourself, built on three simple pillars that support each other: breathing, cold exposure, and mindset. Through the breath, the cold, and the mind, we rediscover a strength that already lives inside us but that modern life slowly makes us forget. It teaches you to listen to your body, trust your intuition, and meet stress with more calm, clarity, and confidence. Cold water is just a small part of the entire method.

2. Do I need any previous experience to join?

No. The workshops are designed for beginners as well as experienced practitioners — whether you’re completely new to the method or already experienced with cold water or breathwork. You do not need any previous experience, only curiosity and an open mind 😊

3. Is the ice bath mandatory?

No, the ice bath is always optional. Everyone can participate according to their own ability and needs. During the workshop, you’ll learn how to enter cold water safely and stay in it by controlling your breath.

4. What happens during a Fundamentals Workshop?

You explore the three pillars of the method: a guided breathing session, mindset & nervous system regulation, and a guided ice bath experience.

It usually lasts a full afternoon (4h to 6h depending on the format).

5. What's the difference between the summer and winter formats?

There are two formats: one with the ice bath (summer time) and one with cold dip + sauna experience (winter time).

Knowledge about the cold, breathing, and the science, plus the practical skills to enter cold water and practice at home and unlock all the benefits. Beyond that: a reconnection with yourself and your own body, possibly the release of heavy things you carry (emotional or physical), and the chance to be part of a growing community.

7. What other services do you offer besides the Fundamentals Workshop?

Weekly breathing classes (Thursday evenings and Sunday mornings, one hour, practical and open to everyone), a Wim Hof Method weekend — a 3-day, all-inclusive immersion in Estonian nature held twice a year, an advanced workshop for those who have already done a fundamentals workshop, and 1-on-1 sessions for personal attention or those less comfortable in a group setup.

8. Is the Wim Hof Method safe? Are there any health precautions?

Always practice the breathing exercises sitting or lying down in a safe environment. Never practice while driving, in or near water, or anywhere loss of consciousness could cause harm. Do not practice during pregnancy or when having epilepsy. People with cardiovascular issues or other serious health conditions must always consult a medical doctor before starting. Listen to your body and never force the practice.

9. Can I practice at home after the workshop?

Yes. A key part of the workshop is learning how to practice at home and unlock all the benefits, including the basic breathing protocol and how to safely use these tools in daily life.
