Breathwork facilitator training
7 months • four modules • deepening embodied facilitation
Have you been interested in deepening into breathwork in a way that goes beneath the surface?
This seven-month training is a complete pathway where breath, body, and facilitation meet.
It combines deep breathing, elements of biodynamic breathwork, touch and bodywork, and shibari as support for breathwork.
This is not only about techniques — it is about understanding embodied experience, nervous system regulation, and building safe, present facilitation.
Training structure
The training takes place as live weekend meetings in Helsinki.
Each weekend includes a guided practice, partner work, and facilitation practice.
1. Deep breathing
The foundation for the whole practice.
• history and principles of breathwork
• effects on body and mind
• practical foundations of facilitation
2. Elements of biodynamic breathing
A deeper understanding of the nervous system and body awareness.
• nervous system regulation through breath
• strengthening embodied experience
• the perspective of embodied trauma release
3. Touch & bodywork
Breathwork expands into touch.
• the role of touch in the process
• embodied interaction and presence
• connected to module 2
4. Shibari & breath
Exploration at the edges of breathwork.
• using rope as support for presence
• deepening body awareness and the nervous system
• safe work in a sensitive context
Throughout the training
Somatic movement travels with the process, supporting bodily release and integration throughout.
The training includes facilitating practice sessions for your own practice clients.
If you wish, you can also participate without the client work requirement.
