Every path leads to the same place: the surrender-based method, a real facilitator credential, and the confidence to hold Breathwork for real people. You learn safe, trauma-informed facilitation and the business side of filling your first rooms.
Whichever format you choose, you train directly with Ryan and Shelby in a small cohort, and you keep the graduate community and mentorship long after your final day.
We built the online cohort for people who can't travel, or who simply want to start online. Whatever your reason, it gets you there. That said, if you can make an in-person intensive work, we always encourage it. Breathing in a room with your cohort is something a screen can't fully recreate.
We will be straight with you. We do not run a training inside Los Angeles. LA has no shortage of programs, and that is part of the point. Ours is different on purpose: a small, in-person immersion away from the noise, where the work actually lands.
From LA it is a short flight to Phoenix, about an hour and 20 minutes from LAX to Sky Harbor, or a straight shot down I-10. You step out of traffic and screens and into three days with a small group. For a lot of LA practitioners, getting out of the city is the reason the training sticks.
Prefer to stay home? The 12-week online cohort starting October 6, 2026 teaches the same surrender-based method live over Zoom.
“I was really looking for something that was more gentle, more supportive ... and Liquid Breathwork delivered just that.”
She arrived a beginner, after one Breathwork class elsewhere that felt like a lot. She left certain that everything we need is already within us.

“The training gave me the confidence to speak with knowledge about breathwork ... the experiencer is put more at ease and able to go deeper knowing that what is happening is normal and ok.”
He has run a class or two every month since April under his own brand.
“The group calls are supportive and range from business growth to breaking down student’s teachings for feedback.”
Weekly classes, held so consistently that three of her breathers came and got certified in Liquid Breathwork too.
You train in the surrender-based method Liquid Breathwork is known for, the same method we taught at our August 2026 Lake Tahoe intensive. Join a three-day in-person intensive in Phoenix or the 12-week online cohort, and you earn the Liquid Breathwork facilitator credential.
The online cohort is $1,497. Phoenix intensives start at $1,697 early bird. Deposits and monthly payment plans are available.
We teach more than breath. You leave with the methodology, the safety training, and the business groundwork: pricing, marketing, and how to fill your first sessions back home in the Los Angeles market. Mentorship from Ryan and Shelby continues long after the intensive.
Already coaching, teaching yoga, or running a wellness practice in LA? Breathwork certification may be the most powerful tool for deepening what you offer. For full details and dates, see the in-person certification page or the online certification page.
Every Liquid Breathwork session is trauma-informed. You set the pace, you stay in control, and nothing is forced. We guide you inward through gentle surrender, never outward through forced catharsis or screaming. Integration support is always offered, and our door is open if you need to talk.
Founder & Lead Facilitator
Ryan is the founder of Liquid Breathwork and the creator of the surrender-based methodology at the heart of this training. He has spent years guiding hundreds of people through transformative Breathwork experiences across Arizona and beyond. His facilitation style is grounded, intuitive, and deeply present. Ryan brings both the technical depth and the lived experience to teach you not just the how of Breathwork, but the why.
Co-Founder & Lead Facilitator
Shelby brings warmth, emotional intelligence, and deep somatic skill to every training. She has an exceptional ability to read the subtle language of the nervous system, recognizing when someone needs support, space, or gentle encouragement. Her training in somatic support and ethical touch practices ensures that graduates leave with the sensitivity and skill to work with clients at the body level.
"What a growing experience I have had the pleasure of having with Ryan. I'm so happy I took the chance to reach out when coming across him on the social platform. He has been so warm and authentic from the first moment we got introduced. I have learnt so much through his journey and greatful for him sharing it and the technique of this amazing breathwork with me. Do not hesitate, just do and let Ryan guide you."
"Ryan and Shelby are incredible! They create a very safe and supportive environment to practice Liquid Breathwork. I always get exactly what I need. I highly recommend taking a class!"
"I was so intimidated before starting and to now feel that it’s all possible feels so exciting. Super grateful for this experience!! Thank you Ryan! You’re such a gentle soul, wealth of knowledge, and make learning Breathwork fun and simplified!"
"The Liquid Breathwork Masters Course has been amazing! The videos are packed full of helpful content on the breath, as well as the more technical side of hosting Breathwork classes like audio equipment, Zoom tips, and crafting incredible playlists. The group calls are supportive and range from business growth to breaking down student’s teachings for feedback."
"The space you both created during the course felt incredibly warm, welcoming, and safe, which made it easy to stay present and engaged throughout. The simplicity of the Breathwork really stayed with me, and I've already started noticing how restorative it is. Grateful for the experience and for both of you!"
"LBW is always a worthwhile experience. Ryan and Shelby tend to always find a way to cultivate an environment that allows clients the space to identify and realize what they need. For me, it’s a perfect stage-setter in lead up to a stressful week."
Yes. Liquid Breathwork trains Los Angeles students two ways: a 12-week online certification cohort starting October 6, 2026, and in-person three-day intensives in the Phoenix area, a short flight from LAX. Our August 2026 Lake Tahoe intensive drew students from across California, and the Phoenix cohorts teach the same surrender-based method. You finish a credentialed facilitator ready to lead back in LA.
From Los Angeles it is a short flight, about an hour and 20 minutes from LAX to Phoenix Sky Harbor, with flights all day. If you prefer to drive, it is a straight shot down I-10, roughly five to six hours. Many LA students arrive the evening before the Friday start and fly home Sunday night.
The 12-week online certification cohort is $1,497. In-person Phoenix intensives start at $1,697 early bird, with the September cohort at $1,997. Deposits and monthly payment plans are available. Contact us at inhale@liquidbreathwork.com or call 480-660-9890.
