Boot Sequence: Contrast Therapy, Breathwork & Sauna
Most founders show up to Tech Week running on yesterday's cache — calendar bloat, half-finished decks, last week's stress still in the system. Boot Sequence is a 90-minute group reset to start the week sharp.
Guided contrast therapy and breathwork in a small group of founders, builders, and operators. The science is real: heat-cold cycling drops cortisol, regulates the nervous system, and pulls you out of fight-or-flight before the keynotes even start. Breathwork between rounds anchors it.
You'll leave with a clear head, a regulated nervous system, and a handful of new connections from people who started Tech Week the same way you did.
This is a paid event for $39. You can pay here or at the door.

About the space
NRG Haus is Toronto's first social wellness club — a 5,000 sq ft Liberty Village space combining guided contrast therapy, functional beverages, IV recovery, and intentional social design under one roof. Inside: a 55-person sauna, four immersive cold-plunge tubs each paired with a 16-foot LED screen running ocean waves and icefields, a tea lounge with a water-vapour fireplace, and a zero-proof bar pouring adaptogenic drinks built around Lion's Mane, Ashwagandha, and vitamins instead of alcohol. Phones go in lockers. Be fully present. You leave grounded, energized, and clear-headed — not depleted.
Toronto Tech Week is a citywide celebration of the people building what’s next. From May 25–29, 2026, founders, investors, and builders come together for hundreds of community-led events across Toronto, connecting tens of thousands of people around Canadian tech. Torontotechweek.com.
