Ready to step fully into your power, cultivate a deep Felt Sense to guide you in your offerings, and graduate as a world-leading Breathwork Facilitator?


What Makes Our Breathwork Facilitator Training So Unique & Effective?

Our Breathwork Facilitator training is for those who have a deep respect for the profound power of connected breathing, and who understand that becoming a skilled and attuned facilitator takes time. It is for those who want to hold space safely, and who are willing to go on their own inner journey in order to reach their full potential as a facilitator and a human.

The training offers both online and in-person segments. This unique combo allows you ample time to process and integrate the curriculum, without overwhelm. However, we’re a strong believer that some things are better taught in person, and that is why we offer a 6-day in-person segment in stunning Sayulita, Mexico. You can find out more about our beautiful retreat home for the Breathwork Training while in Sayulita, here.

Although we highly encourage everyone to attend the in-person segment, if you cannot, we still welcome you to join our training. You will have the opportunity to go over missed seminars with your teacher online.

Highlights of Our Breathwork Facilitator Training:

We Focus on the Inner Journey:

The extent to which you can hold space for others is limited by the depth of your own inner exploration. Thus, a significant portion of our 400-hour training is dedicated to nurturing your inner journey. Throughout our training, you will process and transcend your traumas, integrate your shadows, and step fully into your power.

You will graduate with a deep sense of confidence and purpose, and with a greater ability to connect to joy, peace, presence, and bliss. You will also move through life with a greater sense of equanimity and a turbocharged Felt Sense.

Most of our graduates say joining our training was the greatest gift they ever gave themselves, and it is our pleasure and privilege to hold space for this incredible transformation! This inner work will make you a true shining light and you will stand out as an inspiring Breathwork Facilitator (pun intended) who really walks the walks.

We Value Your Uniqueness & Encourage You to Infuse it Into Your Breathwork Offerings:

breathwork and sound healing training

We don’t believe in creating cookie-cutter facilitators. Each student who joins us brings their own unique gifts, skills, wisdom, and life experiences. We wholeheartedly encourage you to infuse these elements into your offerings, making it authentically yours. In fact, many of our facilitators combine their current modalities with their breathwork offerings. Whether you are a talk therapist, sound healer, reiki master, ecstatic dance teacher, shamanic healer, plant medicine therapist, yoga teacher, or something else completely – we welcome you and support you! And if you are completely new to the wellness field, we welcome you as well; rest assured by the end of the training you will be holding space like a seasoned professional.

Our Curriculum is Incredibly Rich & Comprehensive

Our 400-hour Breathwork Facilitator training curriculum offers a wealth of rich and comprehensive content, ensuring that upon graduation, you will possess a depth of knowledge, skill, and attunement that surpasses the majority of facilitators in the field.

You’ll learn how to hold space for groups and 1:1 Breathwork sessions, both online and in person.

You will learn about how to “Frame” the session in a way that will allow your breathers to feel safe to explore their greatest depths. You’ll also learn how to create a kickass playlist and workshop; how to set up your space; basic and advanced supportive touch techniques; how to provide energetic healing with reiki; and how to identify and safely support people with contraindicated conditions. And that is just the beginning.

We will then explore the anatomy and physiology of breathwork, as well as the business and marketing side of breathwork. Then we’ll do a deep dive into trauma and how to hold space for people to safely navigate and process different types of trauma.

You will not only graduate as a trauma-informed practitioner with a depth of knowledge on all things connected breathwork related, you’ll also learn about other supportive breath practices, your Felt Sense, transmission, angel training, the use of voice and language, and more! And perhaps most importantly, you’ll learn how to hold space with confidence and grace. At our training retreats, attendees consistently marvel at the expertise of our trainees, and cannot believe that they have not been doing this for years, as they are such well-rounded and remarkable Facilitators and space holders.

We Provide Flexibility & the Plenty of Time to Integrate Your Learnings

With shotgun trainings, your depth of knowledge is extremely limited and you tend to forget the majority of your learnings. With our Breathwork facilitator training school, your training will be completed over 8-12 months to allow ample time to absorb your learnings. And the training is structured to allow you to complete a large chunk of it on your own schedule and at your own pace.

We Offer Continued Support After Graduation

We have a massive learning library of hundreds of videos on pretty much any breathwork theme or subject you can imagine. There are masterclasses on there and recorded breathwork sessions and this learning library is available even after graduating and can be used for inspiration and continued learning.

We also include a monthly online meeting with Benedict Beaumont, who is the founder of our training school Breathing Space. This is a sacred space where students and graduates gather, connect, share, and learn. On top of all this, you will be deeply connected to your teacher Megan and your fellow trainees after the training and they will become your uplifting Breathwork family.

We Have a Deeply Supportive International Community

Everyone who joins our training is connected through the communication app Slack. This means you will always have a place to go for inspiration, to receive Breathwork sessions, and to ask questions or receive support.

This global community will also be a huge asset during your training. It provides an opportunity to practice facilitating and being facilitated by other trainees. This, in turn, will help to fulfill your graduation requirements of both offering and receiving group and one-on-one breathwork sessions. There are also 5 free weekly breathwork journeys you can attend and as you progress through the training, you will have the opportunity to step-up and offer a session to our community with the support of your teacher.

How Embarking on A Breathwork Facilitator Training with Megan, Will Become Your Biggest Asset as a Facilitator

Gain Access to an Unsurpassed Breathwork & Holistic Healing Knowledge-Bank

Breathwork Facilitator Training Teacher Megan

Conscious, Connected Breathwork has been so incredibly transformative and healing in my life that I have now made it my life’s purpose to share the magic of the breath with as many people around the world as possible. As a part of that mission, I have studied with two internationally leading Breathwork Facilitator Training schools.

I live and breathe (literally & figuratively) Breathwork! When I’m not facilitating sessions online and around the world, I am researching and writing about it. I’ve also been a professional wellness writer for 15 years and have gained a wealth of knowledge pertaining to mental health, disease, holistic healing, and trauma in that time.

For five years after becoming certified as a Breathwork Facilitator, I wrote exclusively for international Breathwork Facilitator Training schools including Neurodynamic Breathwork, Biodynamic Breathwork and Trauma Release Institute, Breath Masters, Owaken Breathwork, Alchemy of Breath, The Buteyko Breathing Clinic, and Oxygen Advantage. I’m sharing this only because each school taught me so much, and my depth of knowledge in the Breathwork realm is incredibly robust! I am generous with my knowledge and love nothing more than sharing my hands-on and research-based learnings with others. When you graduate, you will have a depth of knowledge and know-how that far surpasses most other facilitators around the world as well!

I Will Support & Coach You Every Step of the Way

Breathwork facilitator training

As my trainee, it will be my mission to ensure you face your fears and step fully into your greatness. I will be there to support you, build you up, and cheer you on every step of the way. I believe that each person has unique gifts and life experiences that make them equipped to offer Breathwork in their own special and uniquely powerful way. And I will encourage you to infuse your personality, life experiences, and any other learnings and skills you have into your Breathwork offerings. Together we will alchemize your greatest challenges into your greatest gifts!

I Will Teach You How to Market Your Breathwork Offerings & Create a Successful Healing Practice

Did you know that the majority of certified breathwork facilitators aren’t facilitating? Many simply don’t feel confident enough because their training was too rapid or incomplete. As such, they don’t feel prepared to safely or effectively hold space for the depth of healing that is Breathwork. And sadly, many people who do undertake a thorough training, also do not offer Breathwork as their main career. This is because most Breathwork Facilitator trainings do not properly teach you how to market breathwork offerings, so it becomes difficult to get clients and make a business out of it. 

Breathwork facilitation is deep and incredibly powerful work and the world needs more facilitators. But if qualified facilitators can’t afford to keep up with their offerings, then the world suffers. So learning how to properly market your breathwork is a gift not only to yourself but to all the people who will benefit from you holding space for them. As a 15-year professional wellness writer, with SEO certifications, I will provide you with the tools necessary to make a success out of your practice!

I’m the Breathwork Facilitator Teacher for You, If You’d Like to Learn from Someone With:

A Sneak Peak at the Breathwork Facilitator Training Curriculum

Unit One:

trauma-informed breathwork facilitator training
  • Breathwork Essentials. This segment of the unit provides trainees with all of the skills and resources that they need to create and safely run a breathwork session. Content is delivered through our online learning platform and also in the live seminars. By the end of this segment, you will already have a depth of knowledge that surpasses many Breathwork Facilitators around the world.
  • Bodies of Breathwork. This segment looks at different levels of the Breathwork journey and how it affects us. We start empirically with the physical body and the Anatomy & Physiology of the Breath. We then move to the emotional body where we dive deep into trauma and our role as Breathworkers. Finally, we explore the subtle body and how breathwork integrates creativity and spirituality.
  • Advanced Facilitation Skills: In this unit, we will cover advanced facilitation skills including voice, touch, and transmission (connecting to something higher than yourself). We will also learn how to support ourselves financially and to build a business out of breathwork. If you are in the hybrid training, this segment will be covered in-person with a 6-day intensive in Sayulita, Mx.

Unit Two: Home Exploration

breathwork facilitator training
  • Book Reports & Graduation Project. Trainees must choose, read, and then submit three reports on books from an extensive reading list. Trainees must also complete a ‘graduation project’. This project could be a website, app, podcast, dissertation, series of artwork, etc. And it will ideally help further your own development.
  • Breathwork Practicums. The only real way to become a breathwork facilitator is to facilitate Breathworks. It is, therefore, a graduation requirement for trainees to receive weekly group breathworks throughout the duration of the training and receive 5 one-on-one Breathworks (you can receive these through Breathing Space). Our trainees must also facilitate a minimum of 5 one-on-one Breathworks and 5 group Breathworks.
  • Personal Journey. If we are to hold others deep in process, we have to be prepared to go on a continuing journey of self-exploration and healing of our own. This segment is not directly assessed, but it’s expected for trainees to have a regular breathwork practice and commit themselves to the deep inner journey offered by our training.
