North on the Hiawatha, or South to Atlanta

We do not hold a training in Illinois. Milwaukee is the closest, and the only Midwest city on our calendar. From most of Chicagoland it is a morning on the train.

By Train to Milwaukee

The Amtrak Hiawatha runs 7 round trips a day (6 on Sunday) from Union Station. About 1 hour 29 minutes later you are at Milwaukee Downtown. It also stops at Milwaukee Airport.

Class starts at 9, so most people book Friday and Saturday nights in Milwaukee and ride home Sunday evening. Driving works too. Check Friday afternoon traffic in your maps app.

By Air to Atlanta

Prefer a March weekend? Atlanta runs March 19-21, with the same three days and 24 live hours.

United and American hub at O'Hare, and the CTA Blue Line runs there 24 hours a day. Southwest flies from Midway, on the Orange Line.

Milwaukee in September runs low 70s by day and mid 50s at night, a few degrees under a Chicago September. You know "cooler by the lake" from every Chicago forecast, and it holds up the shore too, so pack a layer for evenings.

Coming From Elsewhere in Chicagoland

From Evanston and the North Shore

Skip the ride downtown. The Hiawatha stops at Glenview, so Evanston and the rest of the North Shore can board there and be in Milwaukee without touching the Loop.

From Oak Park and the Western Suburbs

Union Station is your easy start. The Hiawatha boards there, so the western suburbs ride the same train north.

From Northwest Indiana and the Region

The South Shore Line runs from South Bend through Gary and Hammond into Millennium Station. From there you cross the Loop to Union Station for the Hiawatha. Leave plenty of room between the two trains.

What Our Graduates Say

Matthew Seibert, Liquid Breathwork certification graduate

Matthew Seibert - Healing practitioner, LBW graduate

“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.

Sisily Chevalier, Liquid Breathwork facilitator

Sisily Chevalier - Owner of Body by Sisily, LBW facilitator

“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.

Krystal, Liquid Breathwork facilitator

Krystal - Realtor, nurse, LBW facilitator

“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.

Brittany Prince guiding a Breathwork class

Brittany Prince - LBW facilitator, owner of Awakened Prana

“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.

Bring a Breathwork Session Back to Chicago

Your students already have the Lakefront Trail, about 18 miles from Edgewater to South Shore, and the 606 above Wicker Park and Logan Square. You bring them the room: guiding one person, then a full circle, through a Liquid Breathwork session.

In Milwaukee you guide real breathers while Ryan and Shelby give notes. Back home, close a flow class with it or run it as its own workshop.

The lessons a yoga teacher uses the first week home.

  • Vocal Cueing
  • Trauma-Informed Facilitation
  • Music & Playlists: Building the Energy Arc
  • Events, Booking & Payments
