Sports Performance + Resilience
Strengthen your body and mind with science-based practices designed to enhance performance, build resilience, and support deep recovery. We design state-of-the-art workshops that weave together breathing protocols, nervous system regulation, and recovery tools developed in collaboration with the University Hospital Basel. Working with On’s top sponsored athletes, our protocols are rooted in both research and applied practices. You’ll learn to regulate stress, reset the mind, and access a deeper sense of balance — enhancing performance, wellbeing, and recovery. A holistic approach for athletes, sports teams, high performers, and anyone seeking sustainable strength from within — to then go beyond.
Science-based protocols to go beyond.

The Performance + Resilience workshop is designed to guide participants through a journey of physiological activation, nervous system regulation, and inner resilience-building.
The session unfolds through carefully structured phases:
Mindful Warm-Up: Slow movement, stretching, and breathing protocols to stimulate the vagus nerve, activate the parasympathetic nervous system, and lay the foundation for deeper breathing work.
Breath Activation and Training: Focused breathing exercises and breath-hold training — grounded in science — to improve CO₂ tolerance, enhance resilience, and support improved sports performance and breathing efficiency.
Recovery and Integration: Extended recovery periods to reset the nervous system, integrate adaptations, and reinforce lasting balance and resilience.
Participants leave with a renewed sense of clarity, strength, and connection to their inner resources.

These workshops are led by Matthias Hunkeler, a renowned breathwork, movement, and mindfulness instructor with over ten years of international experience and more than 10,000 students guided. An early mover in the field of breath science and performance optimization, Matthias has spent a decade studying with leading experts in breathing, movement, yoga, and mindfulness practices.
Matthias’s approach weaves together scientific research, practical application, and embodied awareness to create highly effective protocols. His work reflects not only a deep commitment to his craft, but also a heartfelt dedication to facilitating transformative experiences — helping individuals reconnect with their innate strength, clarity, and aliveness.
