Join the Warburton Birrarung Bathers for their Wim Hoff inspired breathwork and enjoy the benefits of cold water therapy, from the Birrarung itself!

The Wim Hof Method combines breathing, cold therapy, and commitment to help you connect more deeply to your body. It involves powerful inhalation, relaxed exhalation, and prolonged breath holds.

It is about reconnection: with others, with ourselves and with nature

Proponents say the technique can lead to:

increased immunity
better sleep
reduced stress
heightened focus

Take the plunge!

Remember your towel and a water bottle.

If you have any heart or health conditions, check with your Doctor is this activity is suitable for you.
