Help your child discover how their breath can be a superpower

Susie Sloth and Her Secret Superpower is an award winning children’s wellbeing book written by Charlotte Marsh, a Buteyko breathing coach, and Pilates teacher.

Charlotte Marsh created Susie Sloth as a response to the growing need for simple, practical tools that support children’s emotional regulation and resilience.

Through the gentle character of Susie Sloth, children learn that their breath can be a powerful tool to help them feel calm, confident and in control of their emotions., noticing their breath and tuning into their bodies can support them in everyday situations.

The Susie Sloth wellbeing workshops expand on the themes of the book, bringing the story to life through interactive activities, gentle movement and functional breathing exercises.

Susie sloth has been helping children across Derbyshire for 3 years. Now as a licensed member of the Susie Sloth Squad, I am bringing these workshops to children and families across Oxfordshire.

Charlotte Marsh created Susie Sloth and the NEAT Code for Better Breathing. In her TEDx talk, Charlotte shares the personal experience that led her to explore children's breathing and explains why she believes these skills are important for children to learn.
