Testimonials

 "I greatly appreciated the state of mind in which Patrick transmitted the practices to us: Toumo is an art of living and it’s not just about bathing in icy water as some people tend to think. The videos were clear and precise." 

Lydie E.

 "Thank you Patrick for the Toumo online training. It’s very comprehensive. The videos are loaded with knowledge and experience to go further in practice. This training is a good support to complement the retreats." 

Christophe G.

 "Thanks to this training course, I’ve been able to recalibrate my approach to cold, let go of the stopwatches and put spirituality, philosophy and contemplation back at the heart of my practice! Thank you Mr Daubard." 

Romain G

"It is clear, precise and joyful. You pick up the concepts immediately. Already applying the 5 fundamentals, I observed a difference in my Toumo practice. The theme of relaxation changed my perceptions."
