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 never held a training in Truckee itself. Our closest in-person training was the Lake Tahoe intensive in South Lake Tahoe, about 30 to 40 minutes south, and it ran August 21-23, 2026. That cohort has concluded.
The good news for a Truckee mountain local: you do not need a nearby venue to certify. The online cohort brings the full training home, and the Phoenix intensives give you the in-person immersion if you want to travel for it.

Every path teaches the surrender-based method Liquid Breathwork is known for. You earn the Liquid Breathwork facilitator credential, one of the most established Breathwork certifications in the United States. Our August 2026 Lake Tahoe intensive brought that training within 30 minutes of Truckee; these are the current cohorts:
| Cohort | Tuition | Details |
|---|---|---|
| Phoenix, September 25-27 | $1,997 | Three-day in-person intensive, Friday to Sunday. Early bird sold out. |
| Online, 12 weeks | $1,497 | Live online cohort starting October 6, 2026. Train from Truckee, no travel. |
| Phoenix, October 23-25 | $1,697 | Early bird for the first three of six seats. Three-day intensive, Friday to Sunday. |
| Phoenix, November 6-8, 2026 | $1,697 | Early bird pricing. Three-day intensive, Friday to Sunday. |
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 Truckee. Mentorship from Ryan and Shelby continues long after your training ends.
For full details, dates, and itinerary, see the Phoenix in-person certification or the online certification, or look at options for nearby Reno.
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."
Liquid Breathwork ran the closest in-person Breathwork certification to Truckee, our Lake Tahoe intensive in South Lake Tahoe, in August 2026. That cohort has concluded. Today you can certify from Truckee through our 12-week online cohort starting October 6, 2026, or train in person at a three-day intensive in Phoenix, Arizona.
South Lake Tahoe is about a 30 to 40 minute drive south from Truckee, which made our August 2026 Lake Tahoe intensive one of the closest in-person trainings to town. That intensive ran August 21-23, 2026 and has concluded. Our current in-person intensives are held in Phoenix, Arizona.
The 12-week online certification is $1,497. The Phoenix in-person intensives are $1,997 for September 25-27, 2026, $1,697 early bird for October 23-25, 2026, and $1,697 early bird for November 6-8, 2026. Deposits and monthly payment plans are available.
Truckee to certified facilitator: start the 12-week online cohort from home, or join us in Phoenix for a three-day intensive. Apply now, or book a call to talk it through first.
