As part of decolonizing wellness, we thrive to give importance to each person’s individual healing and facilitation journey after the course has ended. This course is designed to be completed in 3 months.

To qualify for certification, you have up to 6 months to complete your hours once you have access to the program.

It's recommended to go at a pace where you are able to honor, integrate, and reflect upon your experiences each time.

Most facilitators take 3 months to complete the required hours. It's recommended to practice 1 hour of facilitation and 1 hour of attendance each week as a general pace.

We do not hold active practice pods year-long, so it’s best to pace yourself and your studies accordingly.

We’ll train in a unique style of breathwork I’ve adapted and created, FLOW Breathwork. It is a blend of ancient breathwork, movement, energy healing, the elements, and dance. It’s truly the most potent form of somatic healing that lets you tap into both the masculine and feminine energies in the body.

This focuses on a 3-part breath that is done through the mouth. This style of breathing is known under many different names, but is an ancient style of breathing that's been used for thousands of years. This two part inhale, and one part exhale, and a bit of somatic movement will be the main style of breathwork we will focus on practicing.

We’ll briefly cover several styles of breathwork that are both for activating the body and calming the body.

We have taken great care in creating this course to be trauma informed and participate in continuous education for ourselves and revaluation of our materials that help keep this container safe, supportive, and with love.

As the nature of trauma is complex and multi-directional, we remain continuous students to improve our lens.

Trauma is heavily processed through breathwork and Flow Breathwork Facilitator trainings. As breathwork is a complex somatic healing tool, it’s expected that somatic releases, such as trauma may arise.

However, the beginner's level course is to give you the foundational skills you need to facilitate breathwork and deepen your own practice. It is highly recommended for you to keep up with trainings and teachings that help further develop you as a conscious breathwork facilitator, including but not limited to trauma informed trainings, conscious facilitation, decolonizing your wellness practice, and more, long after the certification is completed.

It’s recommended to have a support system where you are able to further integrate the journey that takes place within the container.

Why we teach from a Black, Indigenous, People of Color lens:

All healing spaces are not created equal and must consider the intersectional experiences of facilitators and participants.

Underrepresented, marginalized, and underserved communities often lack resources and proper training for wellness practitioners.

Bypassing lived and cultural experiences lead to unnecessary harm that’s often ignored or suppressed in many wellness spaces.

Absolutely. This training is curated to be a healing container. You are more than welcomed to join even if you aren't looking to facilitate breathwork. People have joined to enhance their own knowledge of self-healing modalities, understanding of energy, build confidence as a practitioner, and elevate curiosity, without intention to become a facilitator for others. This training will enhance your own breathwork practice.

No. Flow Breathwork Facilitator Training is a unique method and methodology that was created with great intention and purpose.

We receive tons of students who are already breathwork certified who haven’t covered nearly 80% of breathwork education in their previous trainings!

There is intentionality in the way the foundation is set and allows us to build upon concepts, techniques, materials, and confidence. It’s a huge distraction to our container to re-teach materials that were not covered in your former training.

As with any practice, being a student is important. Attending classes and integrating your own experiences are important. If you have no experience with breathwork and aren't sure about attending, please come to our classes on Sundays (inside The Breathwork Club where many of our breathwork facilitators teach) to dive in before joining the trainings or pick classes from our on-demand library of breathwork videos.

However, prior experience is not required, but suggested in order to understand what you’re getting a certification in.

Although breathwork is safe for pregnancy and many doulas and nurses come through the training for this reason, this particular training is not for those who are pregnant due to the intensive and virtual nature of our practices.

We recommend that you attend breathwork sessions and keep up with your own practice, and consider facilitator training at another time in the future.

You will be connected to our broader breathwork community who have become life-long friends!

We have optional check-in calls which is the best place to connect with other healers, receive support, and coming your breathwork journey. This work isn't one and done; we love to see what you're doing in the community, your projects, and send you tools to keep enhancing you on your journey.

There is additional support within our private breathwork network where we share additional resources.

Paid opportunities to teach breathwork inside The Breathwork Club are also available to certified facilitators.

No! We learn flow breathwork in 3 ways and you are welcomed to learn into the Flow that is most aligned for you.
