Reduce anxiety, increase resilience, perform at your very best

I’m Jess, a nervous system and breathwork specialist supporting performers, artists, on-air professionals and people working in high-pressure performance environments. My work helps clients stay grounded, regulated and focused in moments where pressure, visibility and expectation are high, while helping protect against burnout and fatigue that can compromise performance over time.

My approach combines evidence-based breathwork with nervous system regulation practices, delivered through 1:1 coaching in person, on-set or online.

Performance excellence shouldn’t come at a cost. If you’re ready to level up and perform at your absolute best, click below.

NERVOUS SYSTEM & Breathwork

1-1 coaching

My core offering is discreet 1:1 nervous system and breathwork coaching for people working in high-pressure, performance-led environments including actors, musicians, on-air professionals and those navigating high visibility, responsibility and expectation.

This work combines evidence-based breathwork, nervous system regulation and practical lifestyle and performance support to help:

navigate and regulate anxiety and stress responses
improve sleep, energy and recovery
maintain focus and clarity under pressure
feel more grounded before, during and after performance
avoid burnout and fatigue

This work is never just about “breathing better”, it’s about changing the way your nervous system responds to pressure, so you can perform, communicate and recover with more ease and confidence.

Alongside this private 1:1 support, I also offer small, themed group experiences and guided pathways at selected points throughout the year.

Choose the level of support that fits your world and build sustainable tools for regulation, resilience and long-term wellbeing…

Testimonials

“I am so blessed to have met Jess. She has honestly given me tools for life through her 8 week full reset. Not only have I noticed a difference in myself and how I handle situations and life’s stresses but close family members have also noticed a big difference too. Moving forward I’m now aware of how I can use my breath for what I need in the moment, whether that’s to feel relaxed, calm, energised or focused. Jess has such a deep understanding and passion for her work that it made it so easy and enjoyable for me to learn. Jess was like a therapist for me for the last 8 weeks, I felt instantly comfortable and trusted her.
I would highly recommend Jess as a mentor for anyone that would like to learn more about breathwork. This has truly been life changing and I have developed a new set of habits, tools and routines. We need more people like Jess in the world!”
— HEATHER F (8 Week Full Reset Client)
“I recently completed the 8 week full reset with Jess to focus on managing my anxiety and I can honestly say it’s been an amazing experience. From start to finish I felt completely supported by Jess. She created a safe, welcoming space where I could explore what was going on for me without judgment.
One of the biggest takeaways from the programme was learning powerful breathwork techniques. These tools have helped me not only manage my anxiety in the moment but also improve my overall tolerance to stress. I’ve gained a deeper understanding of how my body responds to stress and now feel equipped with practical strategies I can use long-term.
Jess’ guidance and knowledge made such a difference, and I’m so grateful for her support throughout the journey. I’d absolutely recommend 1-1 coaching to anyone looking to work on their mental wellbeing in a supportive and empowering way. Thank you so much, Jess!”

“The best investment I ever made!”
- Emma (Breathwork Coaching Client)
“It was great working with Jess on my breathing. She listened to my (many!) problem statements and expertly tailored sessions towards them. The exercises were the right level of challenge and expertly delivered, and it was great to cover techniques that targeted both acute issues or stresses and a longer term sports performance goal. Everything was delivered with a smile, and the follow up notes helped me keep track of the details I was too busy having fun to remember at the time!”
— JOHNNY A-L (Breathwork Coaching Client)
“I usually really struggle to stop my mind from racing when I try to follow a meditation, but with Jess’s breathwork session it felt like I was able to fully let go and follow without my mind wandering as much. It left me feeling relaxed on another level. Thanks Jess!”
- Maz P. (Breathwork Event Attendee)

— JOHNNY A-L (BREATH-WORK CLIENT)
“Jess has a great energy and a calming and holistic approach to yoga and breath-work. She is respectful of its origins and has an authentic style, taking opportunities to increase awareness and understanding as well as practising the asanas. Her focus on the importance of breathing in a meaningful way as well as her thoughtful delivery of the physical poses brings me back to her classes again and again. They are a joy to take part in and greatly appreciated”
— BUBBLY PATYAL (YOGA & BREATH-WORK STUDENT)
“It was really important for me to work with someone who had the same values as me. Someone who focuses on longevity, form and self-love rather than aesthetics and the ‘no pain no gain’ culture. Jess’ knowledge of meditation, breath-work and yoga complement her personal training and I am a client of hers in both areas. She really CARES as well. Whenever I have questions/wobbles/injuries she is always there for me going above and beyond. ”
— NADIA KRAMER (PERSONAL TRAINING & YOGA CLIENT)
“Jess Parkinson became my personal trainer on the recommendation of my physio at a critical time. I had had an unsuccessful hip replacement operation and was facing a tricky revision as well as prostate surgery. Her well thought out programme and close observation of my efforts ensured my return to fitness that I had not enjoyed for 10 years” -
— CLIVE ROWE (PERSONAL TRAINING CLIENT)
“I met Jess as we went into lockdown and am so happy I did - the weekly classes provided an end to my work day, and her themes and focus areas were always just what I needed, gentle and challenging in the right proportions and always customisable. When I struggled with back pain, Jess worked through biomechanics assessments and then provided me with a tailored programme that helped me enormously, providing structure to my recovery. Her positive, compassionate energy and authentic style of teaching puts students at ease and I really appreciated that she took the time to answer questions, check in on how things were going, and was so willing to help.”
— SARAH LAURENCE (PERSONAL TRAINING & YOGA CLIENT)
I absolutely loved my pregnancy yoga classes with Jess, I found her classes so helpful as I suffered with a bad back during my pregnancy. She would always tailor the class to my specific needs and I always felt so much better afterwards. Pregnancy yoga with Jess is a must if you have aches and pains during your pregnancy or even if you just feel tired, I would always feel so much more relaxed and energised afterwards.
— MICHELLE THOROGOOD (PREGNANCY YOGA CLIENT)
“Jessica Parkinson has been my personal trainer for 18 months. Jessica is very professional. She prepares carefully for each session, keenly observes the exercises and is scrupulous about their execution. My fitness has progressed in leaps and bounds since she has been involved. Jessica is also very personable and has a delightful personality. She is patient and encouraging and has a great sense of humour”
— GILL ROWE (PERSONAL TRAINING CLIENT)
“Jess has helped me build up not only my physical strength and flexibility but also my confidence in my abilities to do exercise. She is so incredibly positive and encouraging and will always find ways to work around or target the specific quirks of my body. Her online yoga classes are welcoming and grounding, giving me structure and motivation throughout my week”
— NAT TRUMAN (PERSONAL TRAINING & YOGA CLIENT)
“I had the opportunity to do some fantastic instructor trainings with Jess and some of her classes too while she was still the holistic master trainer at Gymbox. I have mad respect for Jess, her knowledge, perspective and infectious personality are unmatched. I’m always looking forward to train or be inspired by her for both my own practice & instructing career”
