Guided Classes: Breathwork & Contrast
Instructor-led sessions that combine breathwork, contrast therapy, and nervous system education. The best way to experience everything Plunsana offers in a single session.
Led by Instructors Who Live This Practice
Guided classes at Plunsana are structured sessions led by instructors who walk you through the full protocol: breathwork, sauna, cold plunge, and the nervous system education that ties it all together.
These aren't fitness classes. They're guided experiences designed to teach you how your body responds to heat, cold, and controlled breathing, so you can build a practice that works on your own.
Classes are ideal for beginners who want to learn the protocol with guidance, and for experienced practitioners who want to go deeper with an instructor pushing the pace.

Guided Breathwork
Every class begins with structured breathing protocols. The instructor guides you through rounds that activate your vagus nerve, regulate your nervous system, and prepare your body for the contrast work ahead.
Contrast Therapy Rounds
Move through multiple rounds of sauna and cold plunge as a group, with coaching on timing, breathing through the cold, and how to push your edge safely. The instructor sets the pace.
Nervous System Education
Learn why each modality works, how your autonomic nervous system responds to heat and cold, and how to apply what you learn in the studio to stress management, recovery, and performance in daily life.
What a Guided Class Looks Like
Arrive & Connect
Show up 5–10 minutes before class starts. The instructor introduces the session, sets the intention, and walks newcomers through the space and protocol.
Breathwork Opening
The group moves through guided breathing rounds in the dedicated breathwork space. This anchors the session and shifts your nervous system before the contrast work begins.
Contrast Rounds
Alternate between sauna and cold plunge with the group. The instructor coaches you through each transition, including breathing cues for the cold. Typically 3–5 rounds.
Close & Integrate
Finish with a final breathwork cooldown and a few minutes of stillness. The instructor closes the session. You leave with the tools and understanding to practice on your own.
