The Three Stages of your
400-Hour Breathwork Journey
Our curriculum has been carefully designed by a professional teacher and a nurse to ensure the journey is as educationally sound as it is transformative. We bridge the gap between the science of the nervous system and the mystery of the human experience.
-
Before you can hold space for deep release, you must master the fundamental tools of regulation and breathwork. This stage focuses on nervous system literacy and safety.
The Science of Breath: Understand the basics of the anatomy & physiology of breathing, CO2/O2 exchange, and how breathwork can truly calm the nervous system.
The Toolkit: Master over 20 foundational breathing techniques. You will learn exactly when and why to use specific patterns to support clients with anxiety, sleep, or focus.
Trauma-Sensitive Basics: Begin your journey with a focus on safety, learning to recognise the physical signs of dysregulation in yourself and others.
-
In the second stage, we dive into the heart of our practice: Conscious Connected Breathwork (CCB). This is where you learn to navigate deeper emotional and somatic territory.
Somatic Release: Learn the mechanics and the art of guiding high-ventilation sessions that allow for deep emotional processing in a safe and ethical way.
Holding Space: Develop the presence and groundedness required to support whatever arises in a session, from profound joy to deep release.
Trauma-Informed Design: We go beyond the basics to ensure you can resource and pace a session effectively, maintaining a safe and inclusive environment for every participant.
-
The final stage is about finding your unique voice as a breathwork teacher and preparing for a professional career.
The Facilitator's Tools: Explore the subtle arts of using your voice, the ethics of touch, and the power of transmission and presence in the room.
Business Integrity: We provide the practical tools you need to build a sustainable practice, including ethics, scope of practice, and how to design and market your own workshops.
Integration & Aftercare: Master the art of helping clients weave their breathwork insights back into their daily lives, ensuring long-term impact.

Prefer a More Individual Path?
While many thrive in our global cohorts, we recognise that some learners prefer a more intimate, one-on-one environment.
The Individual Apprenticeship pathway offers the same GPBA-certified, 400-hour curriculum and access to the same great resources and community, but is tailored entirely to your unique pace and personal journey.
You’ll receive direct mentorship from one of our amazing Breathing Space teachers or mentors, providing a deeper dive into the nuances of space-holding at a time that fits your lifestyle.
STILL HERE?
Good, I was hoping you would be.
Time for a little
heart to heart
Let’s get real for a moment.
I know what it’s like to feel that nagging voice in your head, whispering doubts: “Am I really cut out for this?” I’ve been there, lying awake at 3 a.m., staring at the ceiling, wondering if I had what it takes to step into something new, something unknown.
Every single one of us at Breathing Space has felt that fear. We’ve all danced with uncertainty, questioning if we’re enough. It’s part of the journey and one that asks us to trust ourselves even when it feels impossible.
But let me tell you, what’s on the other side of that fear is nothing short of extraordinary. It’s a life where you don’t just survive but you thrive. Where you wake up each day knowing that what you do matters. You’ll touch lives, witness transformation, and rediscover parts of yourself that have been waiting to be seen.
Imagine going to bed each night with a heart full of purpose, knowing you’ve created space for others to heal and grow.
I’m not just a breathwork trainer, I’m walking this path alongside you. I’ve been where you are. I know the doubts and fears, but I also know the incredible gifts you have to offer. If there’s even a tiny spark inside you whispering “maybe,” don’t ignore it. That spark is waiting to ignite.
We’re here for you, every step of the way. We’ll catch you when you stumble, cheer for you when you rise, and celebrate the moments when you shine. Together, we’ll create something extraordinary.
With all my belief in you,
Benedict
FAQs

Both our group training and apprenticeship pathways offer comprehensive, high-quality breathwork facilitator training. The main difference lies in the learning environment and level of personalization:
Group Training: Ideal for those who thrive in a collaborative learning environment and enjoy connecting with fellow students. You'll benefit from the shared experiences, diverse perspectives, and supportive atmosphere of a group. This option offers a structured curriculum with live, interactive sessions and self-paced learning modules.
Apprenticeship: Best suited for those who prefer a more individualized, hands-on approach. You'll receive personalized mentorship and guidance from an experienced facilitator, tailored to your unique learning style and goals. The apprenticeship offers flexibility and a deeper dive into the nuances of breathwork facilitation.
Ultimately, the best choice depends on your personal preferences and learning style. If you value community and interaction, group training might be a great fit. If you prefer a more personalized approach and want to work closely with a mentor, the apprenticeship could be a better option.
If you're still unsure, we encourage you to book a free discovery call. We can discuss your individual needs and help you determine the best path to becoming a confident and skilled breathwork facilitator. -
The "best" training is subjective, but we believe high-quality programmes share three pillars: global accreditation (such as the GPBA), a deep trauma-informed framework, and a focus on human connection rather than just pre-recorded videos. We recommend looking for a school that values safety and nervous system literacy over grandiose claims of "instant transformation".
-
Yes, provided the course meets rigorous international standards. Our online breathwork training is designed to be as rigorous as an in-person apprenticeship, combining self-paced theory with live, interactive seminars where you are seen and supported by real mentors.
-
While meditation is a beautiful practice for observing the mind, breathwork is a "bottom-up" somatic tool that works directly with the nervous system. Many of our students are meditation teachers or yoga teachers looking for a deeper way to help clients process stored emotion and find physical regulation.
