Meditation/Breathwork
Tony Benavides
For 23 years, Tony worked in the public sector in a high stress career. As a lifelong “crisis meditator”, he would occasionally grasp for a sense of calm or relief in times of high stress using meditation. He finally established a deep, consistent meditation practice at the end of his career. (Or maybe he found the end of his career at the beginning of regular meditation.) Either way, meditation changed everything.
Tony has been teaching a variety of topics for at least 20 years. Tony’s teaching philosophy is rooted in meeting students where they are, customizing teachings to the comfort level of the student. Ultimately, he hopes to give students the skills and confidence to practice confidently on their own.
Tony is a davidji certified mindfulness and meditation instructor. He holds certificates in life coaching and executive coaching from the Coach Training Alliance. He earned a BA in Philosophy from Cal State University, Dominguez Hills and a MBA from Southern Oregon University.
Tony is the VP of Field Operations for a consulting company focused on helping companies use unmanned aerial systems to improve their efficiency. Tony is also the Director of Training for a private security firm where he teaches mindfulness to employees.
