Cassandra’s Testimony
“Usamah & Sibel guide you home. They operate from a place of pure love and this has a ripple affect in any work they do.
The only way to delve into the hardest work, the subconscious, the darkness, the challenges and energy, is if you feel safe first. Otherwise it is impossible and you will keep repeating the same patterns and never actually find the root of what may be limiting you. You can't fake safety, you can't fake genuine desire and purpose in empowering others - I believe empowerment is at the core of Spirasana.
If you feel even the slightest nudge to work with Usamah, I urge you to. There is a reason you have that feeling, it will be one of the best decisions you make for yourself.
I stepped into my first workshop with Spirasana in April of this year (2024) I finally felt ready to breathe. Up until this point I had only ever done healing modalities that were purely energy based. It had taken me a long time to come back to my breath and my body and I am so grateful I found the most incredible place and what now feels like family to go on that journey with.
I was overwhelmed the pure force and power that I felt in that first session, and very much had the gut feeling it was the start of something very special for me.
I jumped at the opportunity to be apart of Spirasanas 8 week women's breathwork container. I had no idea what to expect but I just knew I felt safe and ready. This container was and continues to be the most intense and transformative container I have ever done.
I have struggled to put into words and share my experience because every day I am better because of this container, and every day I notice how my awareness has changed, how I am different, how I am on a new path that I may never have found before. Every day something new may come into my field or life, there may be more challenges, more layers unravelled, but I am now navigating it all through a place of feeling home again within myself. I feel this is at the heart or essence of what Spirasana does - you are always reminded you are not to be fixed, but simply that we as humans all experience pain and experiences which shape us and sometimes we get stuck or we just need that space and support to find our way home again.
There are countless moments from the container I hold with me and act as an anchor when I face moments of seeing patterns and behaviours in myself and I'm not sure I have the strength or tools to change them - I remember how I felt in moments during the container, when I was facing and honouring all parts of myself and my story.
I could write forever and it would never be enough. Thank you Sibel and Usamah for everything you share, for who you are - I am home, I am safe, I am here, I am breathing, I am blessed.”

Sarah’s Testimony
“I’ve had the pleasure of working with Usamah consistently for the past year and a half now, predominantly participating in his breathwork sessions (both 1:1 and group).
Reflecting back on who I was, what I was feeling/ going through prior to starting with him, I was someone who suffered from heavy waves of depression, suicidal ideation, dysthymia and chronic fatigue. I had extremely low energy that resulted in needing to have naps throughout the day just to function.
I came across Usamah’s offerings and was instantly drawn to partake. I was a bit nervous stepping into a space like this being held by a man but that unease dissipated as soon as I met him. Usamah is one of the most beautiful people you’ll ever meet. He’s genuine, kind, caring and beyond professional. His dedication to creating a safe container to express the fullness of whatever you are feeling is unmatched. Never once did I feel like I was being too much or too weird. He holds space for it all.
It wasn’t long into my sessions that I saw improvements. I gained more energy, no longer in a state of numbness or needing to nap throughout the day. My tolerance for stress and my ability to cope in general and in challenging times improved drastically.
Another beautiful side effect from working with Usamah is just by being in his presence and witnessing how he carries himself and interacts with others, reprograms and expands your mind and body to become familiar with what a man in his healthy masculine (and feminine) feels like.
To anyone who is contemplating working with Usamah, you truly have everything to gain by investing in his offerings. He holds himself with integrity and to the highest standards. Always ensuring that he creates the most optimal environment for his clients so they can become one with themselves again.
It’s always a gift working with him, I can’t recommend him enough.”

Hayley’s Testimony
“I had been on the healing journey for some time before meeting Usamah but felt like I was going in circles with my healing and felt completely alone in the process.
Usamah provided me the support and safe space I needed to realize that I wasn’t alone on this journey and how vital connection with others is to healing.
Working with Usamah has profoundly impacted my life. It has given me freedom from the heaviness I carried and allowed me to gain a deeper understanding of myself and how childhood experiences influence our adult lives. He is more than a Breathwork facilitator but a gifted soul full of wisdom and who wholeheartedly dedicates himself to his work.
I am so deeply grateful for his guidance.”

Amy’s Testimony
“I have been working with Usamah for almost a year now, both 1:1 and in group settings, across a few different modalities.
The influence he’s had on my personal journey of growth and healing has been profound, and it really goes beyond the modalities he uses.
I have always been a highly sensitive, anxious, and overthinking person. This manifests for me at times as panic attacks, agoraphobia (fear and avoidance of being somewhere I can’t easily escape) and a deep mistrust of my body. It’s also been extremely difficult for me in the past to feel safe enough to be vulnerable and show emotions.
If you can relate to that in any way, I highly recommend working with Usamah.
Firstly he is really patient and humble. Usamah has always honoured my intuitive wisdom when it comes to my healing journey, above his own knowledge. I lead the pace of our work together, and am always met with patience and understanding.
This has been truly invaluable for me in order to feel safe enough to do the work, but also helping to cultivate trust in myself and my own body.
Usamah is also very unique in the way he is able to hold space.
He guides you to meet your edges, and no matter what pours out of you - your biggest, scariest, deepest, most vulnerable emotions - it doesn’t even seem to scratch the surface of what he’s capable of holding for you. He’s totally steady and calm, yet deeply caring at the same time.
He is able to make space for all the darkness and lightness within you to be seen and known, without judgement.
As someone who grew up being taught that my feelings were too much, or that they shouldn’t be seen, that support has been so deeply healing for me.
I also love how Usamah is always growing and learning, and brings new knowledge to his clients with pure enthusiasm and lack of ego.
If you’re wanting to do deep healing work, but in a really safe and protected way, then Usamah will be an incredible guide for you, just as he has been for me.”

Samantha’s Testimony
“In my first session with Usamah, I learned more than I had in 3 years of therapy!
I initially booked for breathwork, but Usamah suggested starting with fascia work. Honestly, I wasn’t expecting it to make such a difference. After that session, I felt lighter in my body, my posture improved, and I had a sense of clarity and lightness that I hadn’t felt in years. What shocked me the most was how the usual triggers that would have weighed me down no longer had the same effect. It felt like a huge weight had been lifted from my shoulders—and this was all without even doing breathwork.
Over the last few months, working with Usamah has truly been life-changing. I feel fully seen and heard in a way I never had before. Each session is deeply personal and tailored to where I am that day, and I always feel like I’m working with someone who genuinely cares about my healing, not just another client coming through the door. We’ve worked through layers of my past, including childhood trauma, which I had no idea was still affecting me in so many ways. Getting to the core of those patterns has been incredibly eye opening and healing.
One thing that stands out is how Usamah has equipped me with tools I can use outside of our sessions. Whether it’s learning how to listen to my body or techniques to manage my emotions, I now have practical ways to continue healing on my own. It hasn’t always been easy—there have been challenging moments—but Usamah’s steady presence and patience have made the process feel safe. Slowly but surely, I’ve started trusting myself more and seeing real shifts in how I respond to life.
Now, I feel stronger, with clearer boundaries and a much deeper sense of self-worth. The things that used to trigger me or make me feel stuck don’t have the same power over me anymore. I never thought I could experience this kind of transformation, and I’m so grateful for everything we’ve uncovered together.
If you’re ready to face what’s really holding you back, I can’t recommend working with Usamah enough.”

Alice’s Testimony
“The reset retreat has allowed me to shed old layers of myself for good. Although I acknowledge that life will generally be two steps forward and one step back, this retreat has felt like quite the head start with amazing people by my side.
Through such a loving and non-judgmental was I able to transform for the better. I am filled with such deep, deep gratitude for Usamah and everyone who made the retreat possible. We were so well nourished and looked after by the wonderful chef NJ as well. I highly recommend this retreat. It has been truely life-changing for me.”
