We're Kathy and Michael.
A wife-and-husband team teaching breathwork and nervous system regulation to people whose stress isn't going anywhere.
We're not clinicians. We're parents, spouses and business partners who needed this to work on an ordinary Tuesday — so that's what we built.
We came to this work from a place of necessity.
We came to it the way most people do — because we needed it. Two small kids, two elderly parents under our roof, a business we run together. It's a full house, and the stress in it isn't hypothetical.
What we found is that breathing was the one thing that worked when nothing else had time to. Not a retreat. Ninety seconds in a hallway, before walking back into a room where someone needed something from us. That's the whole reason Terranuma exists.
One of us came to this through physiology. The other through fourteen years of classrooms.
Michael
Breathwork, performance, and stress resilience — helping people expand what they can hold under pressure. He'll explain exactly what's happening in your body and why, because he doesn't think you should have to take anyone's word for it.

Oxygen Advantage — Patrick McKeown
XPT Performance Breathing — Laird Hamilton & Gabby Reece
Kathy
Fourteen years teaching in New York City public schools and charter networks — which means she knows what a decade of unglamorous, high-stakes stress does to a person. She's the reason our rooms feel safe enough for people to actually let go.
