Music.
Breath.
Presence.
Violinist · Concertmaster, KW Symphony · Breathwork Facilitator
"Just as a musician tunes before performing, we can learn to attune our body through the breath so we can meet life with clarity, presence, and grounded energy."
I'm Bénédicte, Juilliard-trained violinist, Concertmaster of the Kitchener-Waterloo Symphony, and Breathwork Facilitator. Two practices, one thread: the discipline of showing up fully, in breath and music.
Two paths, pick your own
The violin
My life in music
Concertmaster of the Kitchener-Waterloo Symphony, Juilliard-trained, and performing across chamber and solo stages. Music has always been a practice of total presence.
Breathwork - Attuned
Come back to yourself
Trauma-informed breathwork for musicians, creatives, and anyone craving a deeper sense of presence and connection.
Why breathwork, why now
For years I lived in the pressure and perfectionism of high-level performance, showing up fully on stage, while chronic stress quietly shaped my life offstage.
Breathwork became the turning point, a way to meet myself with the same care I'd always brought to music. Now I guide others through that same journey.
