TRAINING OVERVIEW


The Journey to Become a Breathwork Guide

I have been practicing and guiding this lineage of Breathwork for five plus years. These trainings are an extension of my heart and all I have learned as a space holder and guide within the healing arts. Over the course of the past 20 years, I have dedicated the majority of my life to the study and exploration of somatic body work and soul evolution. Through my experiences both personally and professionally, I have come into a loving relationship and embodied approach with the tools that have helped me help myself, and thousands of other humans.

The Breathwork style and technique we will be studying has been taught and passed down to me through David Elliott. My work has also been heavily influenced by Erin Telford, whom is also a student and teacher of his work. These trainings are not part of, or interchangeable with the Healer Trainings series with David Elliott.

The roots of this technique and many styles of Breathwork originate from India, through yoga/pranayama. Cultures all over the world use the breath as a tool to reach altered states of bliss and healing. Through the re-emergence of Breathwork in Western culture in the 1960: Leonard Orr, who was born in New York, USA, founded the Rebirthing Breathwork movement.

This is a 4-part training series to become a fully certified Breathwork facilitator. These trainings offer a comprehensive guide in experience and knowledge, involving guest teachers in collaboration to help share a deeper knowledge of the science and understanding behind these transformational tools for healing.

Please see details below regarding registration and upcoming dates for each level.
