The Fundamentals online video course is a journey, with Wim Hof as your charismatic guide!

Along the way you’ll learn all about the Wim Hof Method and experience the effects of the breathing technique and cold therapy for yourself.

But the Fundamentals course is more than that. It’s a journey of self-discovery and reconnection.

Week by week you’ll learn to tap into the power within you, and how you can take back control over your body and mind, naturally.

Our aim when we created the Fundamentals course is for you to:

develop a consistent Wim Hof Method practice,
create healthy, positive habits, and
be on your way to living a happier, healthier and stronger life!

As Wim says, “feeling is understanding” and the best way to feel something is by doing it.

That’s why the Fundamentals video course is more than sit-in-front-of-a-screen learning. It’s 10 weeks of interaction, immersion and Wim-spiration including:

Guided breathing sessions, focused on the weekly theme
A series of yoga poses, suitable for all levels
Homework exercises to help you reinforce what you learn
A downloadable workbook to record your progress
More than 13 hours of exclusive training content
Plus, the course is fully integrated into the Wim Hof Method mobile app

I was born with Spina Bifida, and was told I would end up in a wheelchair. After incorporating the Wim Hof Method into my daily life I have begun to see results in my pain levels and athleticism. I am no longer looking down the barrel of becoming a paraplegic, and I attribute that in part to the...

The reason I started the course is because I was curious about the effects it would have on my arthritis and my energy level. To my surprise the arthritis in my hands totally disappeared and my energy level went over the roof. Every morning my husband and I do the WHM and we feel so...

After my week in Poland, I decided to jump into the Fundamentals course. I wanted to go more in depth of what we are capable of doing if we commit to something, and learn how much our body is capable of accomplishing. Spiritually, my mind and body have been at their best stage in my entire life....

Doing the Wim Hof Fundamentals Course was one of the best things I’ve ever done. I did it to test my commitment level to pushing myself even when nobody was watching. Ultimately the end result of sticking to the daily practices enabled me to use what I learned not only in my pursuit of...

Dion, USA

This man literally changed my life for the better and I will tell anybody and everybody this! My picture was taken after completing the Fundamentals course. Pretty good for a 50 year old.

Petri, Finland

I have been doing Wim Hof Method 2+ years. I started the Fundamentals course because I wanted to deepen my practice. I had a burnout and problems with my lower back and health in general. It was possible for me to get off all the painkillers after the first week and haven't needed them since....

I was being consumed by day to day situations with work and personal relationships. I discovered the Wim Hof Method as support for a changing lifestyle. The most powerful use I have found for the breathing method is for hiking in altitude; it has helped me conquer Kilimanjaro and Elbrus. Anyone...

I started with cold exposure 7 years ago. I wanted to upgrade my skills as a long distance runner. I am so happy that 3 years ago I started the Wim Hof Method. Since I am doing Wim Hof Method I haven't been sick at all and my running results are far better than before.

Jerzy, Poland

I started the Wim Hof Method Fundamentals course to boost my immune system. It helped a lot during the last two winters. No flu, no cold. When it comes to boosting the immune system it is a great outcome for relatively light effort and I also have a better attitude to everyday life.

Leona, Czech Republic

I started the Fundamentals course because I wanted to get healthier in general plus experience something new and challenging. I fell in love with the Wim Hof Method and am breathing and cold bathing regularly. I love the combination of breathing, cold exposure and exercising.

Hannes, Italy

A friend told me about the Wim Hof Method and I tried the breathing. I felt that this was what I was looking for. Cold showers were the most challenging for me. I kept going and after 3 months my chronic pain decreased. What I love the most about this method is that Wim doesn’t make a...

Vasek, Czech Republic

I started to practice the Wim Hof Method a year ago and now start each day with the breathing exercise and a bath in an outside pool - all year long. This ritual gives me a perfect start and relieves me from stress, no matter how hard the day is ahead of me. I feel more relaxed, confident and...

Erlend, Norway

I started the Fundamentals course as I was interested in building cold tolerance. The 10 min cold shower was a strange experience. I was just really surprised that this would be doable. I think also just getting so used to the cold seemed to make me more present. Since completing the course...

Bruno, Portugal

In 2016 I finished my Masters with a burnout and depression. I started practicing yoga and cold showers. I also have asthma and chronic back pain. The cold showers after yoga do wonders, it brings me back to my old self, energized. I wanted to share exactly why I practice the Wim Hof Method full on!

Catherine, Sweden

I've been dealing with stress & anxiety most of my life. A few years ago I went through several traumatic events. That's when I found Wim and his method! I feel stable, strong and happy in a whole new way. For the first time ever, I feel trust in myself and in life because I know...

Benjamin

I started the Wim Hof method in October of 2018, and now the holes I had in my brain are gone. My neurosurgeon was so impressed by the scans that he told me I don't have to come back anymore. I take this as proof that this method works to regenerate brain tissue.

Life is a journey and the Fundamentals course reflects this. Progressing through each week will help you understand the what and also the why of the Wim Hof Method.

Weekly homework tasks reinforce each lesson, gradually build up your mental and physical strength, and include:

Further breathing sessions
Cold shower exercises (you can do it!)
Mindset workouts
Meditation time

In total, you'll enjoy more than 13 hours of Wim-spiration over the 10 weeks. The more Wim, the better, we say!

Everyone likes to learn a little bit differently. That’s why there’s different ways for you to learn the Wim Hof Method online:

The Fundamentals course is the newer of the two, and offers extra features including breathing sessions guided by Wim and variations on the breathing and cold exposure techniques.
The Classic course is the original. It’s Wim teaching the method in a no frills, straight forward manner.
