Combining in-depth and proven breath, mind and body practices, this 1-year training empowers deep integration and embodiment of conscious breathwork, enabling you to craft a powerful toolbox for lifelong well-being - for you and for those you teach.
This is a commitment to take seriously.
Our vision is to drive the breathwork industry forward into more depth, with greater scientific and comprehension amongst instructors. Please only apply if this is something you wish to undertake.
YOU WILL EXPLORE AND BECOME PROFICIENT IN THE PRACTICE AND FACILITATION OF…
WHO IS THE INSTRUCTOR TRAINING FOR?
For beginners: Perhaps you are brand new to this practice… Or you know the basics but desire a deeper dive into the art and science of breathwork?
For experienced practitioners: Do you have a strong breathwork foundation, but seek to take your skills and knowledge to the next level in order to become exceptional?
Breathwork can be a standalone skill to embody and share, or it can be complementary medicine understood and taught in conjunction with work you already do, such as:
Teaching yoga, qi-gong or meditation, holistic therapy, wellness or transformation coaching, psychotherapy, physiotherapy, athletics, sports coaching, medical and health care, educational work and more.
WHO IS THE INSTRUCTOR TRAINING NOT FOR?
Quick and easy certification: This programme is NOT for those looking for a fast-track route to a breathwork certification.
Low level of commitment: This programme is NOT for those who cannot invest at least 30 minutes every day to develop self practice and progress learning.
Average, run-of-the-mill Breathworkers: This course is NOT for you if you want to become an average breathworker - we want only to enable exceptional breathworkers!
