What You Walk Away With
You leave ready to guide two sessions on your own: our signature Liquid Breathwork session and a Rebirthing session, from the opening and the breath to consent-based touch and the close. You also learn trauma-informed safety.
Ryan and Shelby actively guide multiple sessions every month. We share the exact strategies we use to build community and keep clients coming back, so you can book your first paid clients.
Both formats end with the same certification, taught by Ryan and Shelby in a small cohort. In person is three days in the room, and from 2027 it includes the online cohort at no extra cost. Online on its own is 12 weeks of live group calls plus 60+ video lessons, for less. The graduate community and mentorship stay with you after.
If you can travel, come in person. Breathing in a room with your cohort is the one part a screen can't give you.

Breathwork Certification From OKC: East or West
Both directions are nonstop from Will Rogers. You pick.
| AtlantaEast | Atlanta, Georgia, March 19-21, 2027. Delta flies there nonstop.You lose an hour on the way: 9am in Atlanta is 8am back home. |
|---|---|
| ArizonaWest | Home base for Liquid Breathwork. Southwest and American Eagle both fly nonstop to Phoenix.Scottsdale runs February 5-7. Arizona never changes its clocks, so in February it's an hour behind OKC. See every Arizona date. |
| MilwaukeeNortheast | Milwaukee looks closer on a map, but nothing flies there nonstop from Will Rogers.It's the harder trip from here. |
Whichever way you go, it's Friday to Sunday, 9am to 6pm, and you want to be in the room by 8:45 on Friday. A Thursday flight keeps that morning calm. Snacks are on us. Plan your own meals.
Massage therapists: Liquid Breathwork is an NCBTMB Approved Provider (#1003401). Our separate massage therapist course earns 24 CE hours. See the CE course
Flying Out of Will Rogers
Your trip starts about 6 miles southwest of downtown. The airport became OKC Will Rogers International in 2024 (it used to be Will Rogers World), and most people just say "Will Rogers."
It's the busiest airport in Oklahoma. Delta goes nonstop to Atlanta. Southwest and American Eagle go nonstop to Phoenix. Milwaukee is the one that takes a connection.
Thinking past March? Will Rogers also flies nonstop to Salt Lake City and Washington, D.C., so those later 2027 trainings are a single flight too.
Oklahoma Storm Season, Georgia Pollen
Atlanta in March: highs in the mid 60s, nights in the mid 40s, pack a rain layer. That's a few degrees milder than March at Will Rogers, which runs low 60s by day and about 40 at night.
You're trading Oklahoma's spring storms for Georgia pollen. Late March is Atlanta's tree pollen peak. The yellow dust is pine, but oak and birch cause most of the symptoms.
This is a breath training. If trees get to you, bring your allergy medicine.
Coming from across the South
Outside the city limits? Pick your corner of the state.
From Edmond, Norman and the Rest of the Metro
Edmond sits in Oklahoma County, part of the same metro, and it's the fifth largest city in Oklahoma. It's also home to the University of Central Oklahoma.
Norman is about 20 miles south. It's the third largest city in the state and home to the University of Oklahoma.
From either one, you fly out of Will Rogers on the same Atlanta and Phoenix nonstops as everyone downtown.
From Tulsa and Northeast Oklahoma
Breathwork certification for anywhere in Oklahoma comes down to the same choice, east or west. The Turner Turnpike (I‑44) links Oklahoma City and Tulsa, but Tulsa folks can skip it for this trip.
Tulsa International, about 5 miles northeast of downtown Tulsa, has its own Delta nonstop to Atlanta. Southwest and American Eagle fly from there to Phoenix as well. Like Will Rogers, it has no nonstop to Milwaukee.

What Our Graduates Say
“One of the things that really stood out for me during the training was a lot of the hands-on practice that we got, all the reps. It helped me feel more prepared and more confident in my ability to facilitate Breathwork on my own.”
He chose Liquid Breathwork after comparing several certification programs, and now brings Breathwork into the healing work he already does.
“So grateful for both of you, Ryan and Shelby. You’re changing my life right as we speak ... the ladies both booked for next week for paid sessions.”
After getting certified she had paid one-on-ones and a group session booked in Santa Clarita.
“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.
Hear from past students as they went through our June 2025 training.
A short look at what a full Liquid Breathwork session actually looks like from the inside.
Sells out a women’s only class every month.
Fourteen years a registered nurse, and Ryan’s star student. She has kept those classes full for over two years.
“I felt like that one session of Breathwork was more impactful than multiple sessions of EMDR that I received in therapy.”
He now guides Liquid Breathwork along with practicing as a clinical psychologist.
Leads Breathwork at music festivals.
Gem & Jam and Peak State in Austin, 20+ people on the grass.
“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.

Inside the Three Days
Ryan and Shelby teach it together. The full curriculum is on the main page. Here's the short version.
You breathe first. Every session you'll lead later, you sit through yourself.
Then you take the guide's seat. The breather sets the pace and you follow it, trauma-informed. Liquid Breathwork is a surrender-based inward journey: still powerful, but not as intense as some styles like Holotropic Breathwork, so you can actually go deeper through surrender. Safety gets real time: screening, who should sit a session out, and asking before any hands-on support.
The business side covers pricing, booking and filling a room, if you want to lead sessions around the 405. Mentorship carries on after Sunday. 73 students enrolled so far.
Want to feel a session before you sign up? Our Breathwork Oklahoma City page shows local classes run by other teachers whenever the public listing sites post one.

Beyond our method. You'll study how Holotropic Breathwork®, the Wim Hof Method®, transformational Breathwork and Rebirthing work, so you know where each one comes from and how ours differs. You'll also learn both ends of the breath: when to breathe more than the body needs (hyperventilation), when to breathe less (hypoventilation), and how to guide people safely through either.
Holotropic Breathwork and the Wim Hof Method are registered trademarks of their owners. Liquid Breathwork is not affiliated with them, and your certification is in the Liquid Breathwork method.
The In-Person Immersive
Three days in the room, Friday through Sunday. Ryan McBurney and Shelby Von Oepen, RN BSN, co-lead every training. You receive sessions yourself, then guide your classmates while Ryan and Shelby give you feedback in the moment.
Cohorts are small, so everyone gets real reps guiding full Breathwork sessions. You graduate with the Liquid Breathwork Facilitator Certification.
2027 tuition is $1,997 early bird while early-bird seats last, then $2,497, with monthly payment plans, and the full 12-week online cohort is included at no extra cost. We email the exact address before the training.
The 12-Week Live Online Cohort
The same curriculum, run from home. Our 2027 in-person immersives include it at no extra cost, or take it on its own for less. Each week pairs one live group call with Ryan and Shelby and a video module you watch on your own schedule.
The calls are where the work happens: teaching, live breakout practice, feedback on your facilitation, and business coaching. In small breakout rooms you guide a classmate and are guided in return.
The next cohort starts March 9, 2027. Tuition is $1,497 early bird through January 1, 2027, then $1,797, with monthly payment plans.

Get My Free RecordingQuestions From Oklahoma City

Yes, in either direction. Delta flies nonstop from Will Rogers to Atlanta, which runs an hour ahead of OKC. Southwest and American Eagle fly nonstop to Phoenix for the Arizona dates.
How much does the Breathwork certification cost?
