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.

Who Can Count the Hours
Each profession answers to a different board or registry, so start with yours.
| Registered Yoga Teacher | Available for 24 hours of Yoga Alliance® Continuing Education credit through the Subject Matter Expert pathway. Must be a current RYT to log hours.See Yoga Alliance Continuing Education credit. |
|---|---|
| Licensed massage therapist | Take our separate 24-hour live course, built for massage therapists.See Breathwork continuing education for massage therapists. |
| Nurse, counselor, or other licensed professional | Your board has not approved us. Ask your board before you enroll, and treat the training as a new skill.Nurses, see Breathwork certification for nurses. |
Whichever row is yours, you train with Ryan McBurney and Shelby Von Oepen, RN, and finish with the Liquid Breathwork Facilitator Certification.
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.

Breathwork Continuing Education FAQ
What is Breathwork continuing education?
Breathwork training a working professional takes to add a skill and, where their board or registry allows it, count toward required hours. Ours is a 3-day in-person intensive or a 12-week live online cohort.
Will the hours count for my license?
It depends on who sets your requirement. Registered Yoga Teachers log the training with Yoga Alliance. Massage therapists take our separate course built for them. For any other license, ask your board before you enroll.
Can I take it online?
Yes. The online cohort runs 12 weeks from anywhere, with a live group call each week and video lessons in between.
