FAQ
WHEN CAN I START FACILITATING BREATHWORK TRAINING?
Getting a clear understanding of your goals and helping you map out your vision and direction moving forward are a big part of the training. The course is designed so that you can begin teaching, running workshops and producing content as soon as you qualify. International certification will be granted upon completion of the training, including support with setting up insurance, liability and indemnity. However, as part of the training, you will already be working with friends and family and the public at large as soon as you are ready. You will quickly expand your network of other breathwork practitioners who you could start training with before you receive an official diploma of breathwork and start working with your own clients Johannes: For everyone who trains as a Breathless instructor, your success is mine, and we will work with you to aim to have you set up and teaching within your first few months of qualifying. This will include framing your unique position in the market, step-by-step processes on perfecting your offerings and assisting myself and other breathwork practitioners in live workshops to build your confidence.
WHY DO I NEED ANOTHER TRAINING OR CERTIFICATE?
Finding the right training for you is far more than a list of what you’ll get. Is this a movement you want to be part of? Do you like the culture? Do the values resonate with you? Are these the sort of people you want to hang out with and learn with and from? Do you want to work alongside and be affiliated with this group or do you just want a fancy title? Is a world of many courses does this offering meet you in your personal journey If something doesn’t feel right, then it probably isn’t. But if the message, mission and values speak to you, then you will move mountains to become part of that tribe. As part of the Breathless family, you will be a student of life, for life. Surrounding yourself with a tribe of like-minded individuals committed to growth and bringing this method to the world is as empowering as it is worthwhile. This is not just another personal development seminar or self-help course that promises the goods just as soon as you buy ‘the next course’. Our training is of the highest standard, with the promise not only will this be the last breathwork course you’ll ever need to take but also that you will be part of a movement and a tribe that share your goals, aspirations and determination to help people learn to help themselves. Johannes: I obtained 10 breathwork certificates before starting Breathless. Travelling the world on a shoestring, always looking to get myself in the right room, at the right time, asking the right question, I learned more about the art and science of breathing and myself than I imagined was possible, but what I really took away was the importance of culture and community. The idea that specific methods or individuals hold the key, the secret or the undivulged wisdom is outdated. We’re all looking at the same research papers, distilling the same principles into practices and drawing from the greats that have come before us. What matters most is the people, the community and the connections. At Breathless, we offer all that and world-class training. Breathless shapes the future of the Australian Breathwork industry.
WHAT DOES IT MEAN TO BE A BREATHWORK TRAINER?
A Breathwork trainer is committed to sharing and developing the world of breathing exercises. Past students guide breathwork sessions for groups in the form of workshops, teaching in the workplace and schools, coaching sports teams and yoga practitioners and working with the general public. Other instructors incorporate breathing practices into their existing work as coaches, naturopaths, health practitioners and counsellors. For some, becoming an instructor simply means a lifelong commitment to breathing the best they can. For others, it’s about helping their families and loved ones make the most of every breath.
WHAT ARE THE TRAINING GUIDELINES?
The 3 month instructor training program is broken down into three phases. Upon signing up, you will create your profile and gain access to the Breathless Adacemy. There you’ll find study materials from Breathwork Master Trainer Johannes Egberts, an extensive resource library, guided breathing practices and so much more. Phase 1 consists of 20 hours of pre-recorded lectures. These are to be viewed in your own time during the course. Phase 2 brings us together for a 4 day immersion training in the mountains. This unique retreat brings together the practice and theory through intensive workshops, stimulating discussions and adventures in nature as you connect further with yourself and your new tribe. Phase 3 is where you apply everything you’ve learned through our 28 day program.
HOW MUCH HOME STUDY IS THERE?
In commitment to our vision, we’ve built the most comprehensive learning platform in the breathwork movement to date. Inside our rapidly growing resource library, there are lectures, guided breath work sessions and online seminars to which you will have unlimited access as a Breathless Trainer. However, we are not here to push you into anything for which you are not ready for. The 12 hours of e-learning materials, which are prerequisites to the international certification, have been adapted to suit all learning styles. Complex lectures have also been recorded in conversational podcasts to suit those with limited time and busy lifestyles. The learning platform is designed to be highly practical and compelling to aid in your transformation, build your confidence, focus and enhance your competence to become the best facilitator you can be.
WHAT ABOUT THE FINANCIALS?
We want this training to be accessible to anyone who feels drawn to this work which is why we offer our breathwork instructor training. The growth of our community, the chance to help people transform their lives and the opportunity to inspire excellence in this industry is way above any financial gain. Whilst we provide the highest possible standard of training to all levels of facilitators, we are not interested in running an elite club. We’re in this for the long run. Some instructors will go on to run a wildly successful breathwork businesses, others will simply reap the rewards of being part of a positive movement that supports all areas of life. We believe is that any professional not teaching breath right now is missing out on having impact, purpose and profit. Those purporting to be breathwork instructors with little or no training are causing damage to the viability of this work. What we need is a higher standard and those willing to invest in themselves will lead the way. We will provide intricate guidelines on pricing and establishing the value of your work as well as business coaching, marketing advice and more. Put simply, you can expect to earn your investment back within the first 2 months of teaching. Johannes: I built a 6 figure business from scratch in my first year of teaching. I then invested every single dollar straight back into my learning and development as a breathing instructor, and to this day, I still do. I am committed to your success as much as you are. For me, money has never been the driving factor behind my teaching. It became simply a by-product of building the lifestyle, tribe and purpose of my dreams. 10% of all our profits are donated towards the conservation of the Great Barrier Reef and the Amazon Rainforest. This means that you’re helping support two of nature’s greatest oxygen providers and protecting these wonders for future generations as well as equipping yourself to do transformational work in others’ lives.

WHY BREATHWORK?
The field of breathwork is one of the most rapidly expanding lifestyle practices today. With the mindfulness, yoga and meditation movements already established, breath is the new movement and it is here to stay. More and more people are waking up to the idea that conscious breathing is one of the most powerful remedies to our modern human condition. There is so much demand to support our communities with trauma, managing emotions and heart intelligence. We are at a unique time when science has finally caught up with spirituality. This is an opportunity for breathwork instructors to connect the fields of ancient wisdom with modern applications and help people optimise every breath they take, take responsibility for their own personal healing, expand their consciousness and become more grounded, centred human beings.
