ReWild Breathwork Review: Cost, Format and Who It Fits

This ReWild Breathwork review covers cost, format and fit. The real question: two separate programs, or one live training that teaches both?

ReWild Breathwork is a trademark of its owner. Liquid Breathwork is not affiliated with or endorsed by ReWild Breathwork or Jamie Janko, and we don't teach or certify their method.

What We Liked, and What to Weigh

ReWild publishes a lot: contraindications, weekly hours and support. The 200-hour training adds live calls, practice sessions with feedback, and case studies.

Weigh the path, not just the first step. ReWild advertises on Meta, and the $497 course has no direct access to Jamie, by their own FAQ. Conscious connected Breathwork is a separate program with no published price and no refunds. Our Breathwork certification teaches both in one live training.

Both programs teach polyvagal theory and trauma-aware care. These lessons show how we cover it.

  • Trauma-Informed Facilitation
  • The Nervous System & Polyvagal Theory
  • The Biochemistry of Breath: Oxygen, CO2 & the Bohr Effect
  • Lenses, Maps of Consciousness, Letting Go & Parts Work
  • Physical Touch: Consent & Techniques

See the full curriculum

What we don't teach: We don't teach or certify the ReWild method, issue a trauma-informed coaching credential, or cover the shamanic and tantric practices in their advanced training. If you need those, train with them.
