About this time last year I felt a pull toward exploring breathwork - both for myself and as something I could begin offering to my clients. Mind you, I had NO KNOWLEDGE of what breathwork is. I truly mean that - zero knowledge. I had no background in meditation, yoga or anything of the like. To the honest, I avoided those practices because I’m one of those go, go, go types who doesn’t make slowing down a priority. But for some reason I felt compelled to figure out what this breathwork thing was all about.I started by looking to the internet for information and came across a few training options. I was nearly convinced that I’d figured out which school I was going to go with, but I kept dragging my feet with completing the sign up and committing to the school. That’s when I came across One Breath Institute. I read as much as I could on the website and scheduled an interview with Debbie, the first of which I had to reschedule, because well, go, go, go was still my modus operandi. Ultimately I had my Zoom call with her and it was obvious why I’d been struggling to take final action with the other school. I came to my call with Debbie with the frenetic energy I so often carried…back then. She recognized it and I don’t know exactly WHAT happened during that call, but I do know that by the time that call ended I was as sure of OBI as I’d been about anything. Her presence was so peaceful, so insightful, so aware and so reflective of what I knew I wanted for myself, and so, I signed up.Fast forward several weeks and my cohort began with Module 1: The Personal Journey. I remember that first Zoom class; I was so green, so new to this, so clueless. Yet the screen was filled with people who’d all come with prior breathwork experience. Seriously, I hadn’t even tried a single session of breathwork at this point. It wasn’t until the end of that class or maybe it was the next class that I had my first breathe. It took some time for me to learn that with OBI there is no right way to breathe but once that clicked for me, and even before it clicked really, I was hooked. I was feeling myself change in ways I’d so long been wanting yet also so long been avoiding, though I didn’t realize it. That is the power of OBI’s trauma-informed Introspective Breathwork Therapy®️.Throughout the training and beyond (because once you’re in - you’re family) OBI provides to you a ridiculously comprehensive library of videos, articles, you name it - that supplement your weekly classes and beyond. There is NOTHING breathwork-related and relevant to getting your breathwork business off the ground that the OBI curriculum and additional resources do not touch upon. I’ve done several trainings and certifications and this one is set up unlike any I’ve seen.I’ve recently completed my 9-month facilitator training and have come away someone so changed by the process that I’m in awe. I’ve also come away having spent a lot of time with my instructors and students in my cohort and I choose to believe that those relationships will last a lifetime. I’m terribly excited to bring all that I’ve learned to my existing clients, to new clients, to anyone who finds me and to continue to gift MYSELF the way of life that I’ve found in the practice of OBI’s IBT®️.

As a hypnotherapist who followed the introspective breathwork training with OBI, I have to say, the support is 100%, they know how to renew themselves, bring community and healing, they are open minded and open hearted people and trauma informed, I loved my training there <3

Choosing One Breath Institute for my facilitator certification was the best decision I could have made.From the very beginning, the focus was on helping me with my own healing journey. In the first module, called The Journey, the emphasis was on personal experience — which made complete sense. To truly hold a safe space for others, you must first experience deep healing yourself and be in a healthy, grounded place. Only then can you support others effectively.The training at One Breath Institute is a high-level education packed with a wealth of knowledge. I have friends who studied at other places, and from what I’ve seen, there is no real comparison. The depth, quality, and personal attention at One Breath Institute are unmatched.The facilitator training requirements are thoughtfully designed to prepare you for real-world practice. Beyond the education itself, the ongoing support and encouragement from the team help you stay motivated and reach your goals.I am honored to have trained at One Breath Institute.Special thanks to Debbie and Lisa for their outstanding leadership, mentorship, and dedication to each student’s growth.

Incredible Breathwork training. The deep connection to self and learning how to hold space for trauma has been pivotal in my career. I highly recommend this training to everyone.

It’s hard to find the words to describe how incredible One Breath Insitute is and how OBI has transformed my reality - full circle.I entered the school holding onto stigma surrounding having learning difficulties and being neurodiverse.I chose OBI from their high quality training offering, generous support and the practical opportunities incorporated into the educational programme - as well as offering expertise to grow as a professional breathwork practitioner.One Breath Institute made me feel safe and held me - when I was jumping off a trauma cycle to explore self-development - after a personal life changing breavement.From being a student at the school I have come to learn that Introspective Breathwork® Therapy is a profound system of healing and one that untangles the root cause like no other.Since 2022, I have never looked back and continue to grow as a Breathwork Facilitator, I’m starting my own business - I continue to recieve support, mentorship and opportunities provided from the beautiful OBI community.If you’re looking for healing and to become a breathwork professional - I would highly recommend OBI, witness your own transformation and of fellow humans.

I have enjoyed learning at One Breath Institute. Not only have I received a fantastic education as a breathwork facilitator, but their training incorporates a personal journey that is cohort-based and very healing. I have emerged from this training a very different person, and I'm profoundly grateful.

One Breath Institute has changed my life! When doing my research, I was looking for a school that was offering more than just a quick certificate. OBI has not only created a Trauma Informed Breathwork school, but a community, and a safe space that fosters profound personal transformation. In my experience, their approach to Breathwork has allowed me to heal trauma, step into my power, and explore my inner world like I never have been able to before. OBI created an academic system that challenges the conventional educational system. This allowed me to shape my experience and engage with the material on a deeper level without the fears. If you’re looking for a journey of inner exploration AND a school, OBI is the place for you :)

If you are looking for an comprehensive trauma-informed breathwork training in a school that doesn’t only provide classes of excellent quality but a community and an environment that supports your own healing - One Breath Institute is the school for you. Starting my training with OBI 1 1/2 years ago changed my life in many ways. I fully recommend training with OBI.

One Breath Institute are excellent. Not only am I learning about breathwork but I am also experiencing it and deepening my own personal journey,. I can practice hosting individual sessions and then move onto group sessions. There are templates and documents, videos, and group sessions to ensure you fully understand not only the technical delivery of hosting breathwork sessions but also the responsibility of holding a safe space. All the learning is fully supported by the amazing community, who are by far the most heartfelt and genuine community I have encountered.

Describing One Breath Institute as transformative is an understatement. They've beautifully created such an inviting and safe environment for self-expression, providing guidance and true presence as I explored my inner world, addressing limited beliefs, traumas, and conditioning. This program and the journey to connect to my breath has allowed me to trust myself again. To find my center and let my authentic self shine.If this was implemented in every school, the world would be better for it!

I love OBI and being part of this community. Studying here has opened up so many opportunities to heal, living authentically, and meet INCREDIBLE people. 💜✨🎉😁💥

Learning at One Breath is a very unique and supportive journey to health, emotional freedom, and trauma resolution. I completed The Personal Journey, am currently in Facilitator training, and moving into Practitioner training in September 2023. One Breath offers me everything I could need or want towards personal and professional growth.

The way breathwork changed my life for better is not joke. On top of that, the community, support and the quality of OBI's training are part of my self-care routine now. Amazing institute.

One Breath Institute has been such a transformative school for me. I began my healing journey a couple years back after being diagnosed with lupus. After discovering how yoga helped me, I found my breath and came back into my body. I began to realize how important the breath is to me. One Breath Institute is an institute that not only began to teach me how to facilitate breathwork and become a breathwork practitioner; they have given me tools and resources to stay in presence, find and maintain safety in my body and to use those resources for others in my practice.

Each and every time i join the Sunday breathwork session, I leave fuller and more connected to myself, my dreams and my awakening. This is a beautiful gift to the the world wide community!

2023-08-10T22:33:46.000Z

One Breath Institute welcomed me with open arms. I am in training to become a certified Introspective Breathwork Practitioner. This community is something magical. It is a judgement free-zone. The type of energy that I feel when I’m in class feels like true connection. I feel like I can show up exactly as I am, no matter what type of day I’m having. This school has challenged me to be the truest version of myself and I’m so very thankful for that! Sunday Breathwork sessions that are open to the community are a great opportunity to strengthen my daily breathwork practice and get to experience a group session from different facilitators and practitioners in the community. One of the best things I ever did was start training here, it is continuing to change my life everyday. I’m SO grateful for this space. Thank you to my classmates, mentors, to Debbie, Lisa, Andy, Aysu and everyone in the OBI community for being your amazing Self. 💛🙏✨

I am certified as a trauma informed Breathwork Facilitator from One Breath Institute, and now I am continuing the practitioner training with them. This school is much more than teaching how to facilitate breathwork sessions. It is a true safe space that empowers each individual by hearing, listening and seeing everyone's unique value.The classes are full of information. They are very well planned and explained in the online platform which makes it easy to follow through.Lisa and Debbie are truly committed to provide a top quality training and connection with integrity to their students. I have seen invaluable support through my Personal Journey.I would highly recommend One Breath Institute and Introspective Breathwork if you are searching for a training in breathwork.

The personal journey was eye opening, I’m excited to continue my breathwork with OBI
