Tom Hassall – Founder & Lead Instructor, Deep Breath Institute

I’m a registered paramedic and the founder of Deep Breath Institute.

I started DBI because too many first aid and CPR courses focus on ticking boxes instead of building real confidence. My goal is simple: help people understand what to do, why they’re doing it, and feel capable of stepping in when it matters.

All of my training is based on real-world experience from frontline emergency care, delivered in small groups so there’s time for questions, discussion, and hands-on practice. I use practical examples, real scenarios, and plain language to make the skills easy to understand and remember.
