From 26–29 October 2026, IAHV, in partnership with Bright Haven, hosted another successful Breath Water Sound (BWS) Workshop at Fordshaven Hall in Barrydale, bringing together 35 young people from the local community for four days of learning, connection and personal growth.
Facilitated by IAHV BWS facilitator Francois Beer, the programme introduced participants to the benefits of breathwork, mindfulness, relaxation and sound-based practices, offering practical tools to support emotional well-being, self-awareness and inner balance.
The workshop forms part of IAHV Barrydale and Bright Haven’s ongoing commitment to making accessible wellness programmes available within the rural community, creating opportunities for young people to develop skills that can positively impact their everyday lives.
The success of the workshop would not have been possible without the generosity and commitment of the sponsors, facilitators and volunteers who helped bring the programme to life.
Bright Haven extends its heartfelt appreciation to:
Ladles of Love – for generously sponsoring and supporting the food.
OK Foods – for contributing food donations towards the workshop.
Natalie Uren – for her valuable support and involvement.
Elzaan Jumbo – for generously volunteering her time and preparing the meals.
Judha – from the Art of Living Barrydale Centre, for his dedication and commitment to the programme.
A heartfelt thank you to everyone involved in making these four days possible. Through initiatives like these, IAHV and its community partners continue to create opportunities for positive change, bringing practical wellness tools, connection and hope to communities across South Africa.
