Every summer we gather at Neptune Farm on Saltspring Island for deep dive intensives Levels 1 and 2a Breathwave retreats.

Level 1 provides the foundation and focuses on personal healing. It is required for any further training.
Level 2 a (and b) build on that foundation and provide the skills needed to facilitate Breathwave in one-one-one sessions.

This Level 2a is the first half of the two part One-on-One The Facilitators Training.
This 5 day 50 hour intensive training is packed with the tools to begin the path of facilitating Conscious Connected Breathing. It is designed for those who want to learn the necessary skills to support others as a Breathwave Facilitator. We continue to dive deep in ceremony with the opportunity to breathe and facilitate the breath each day.
This program is in alignment with International Trainings standards for Certification in the field of Conscious Connected Breathing. It will provide the science, skills and experience to become a professional facilitator of Conscious Connected Breathing.
The collective river of experience is guided by facilitators who have dedicated their lives to the gift and service of breath.
We are in an important time to transcend the paradigm we are currently living in. By reconnecting to our inner guidance we are tuning into the new frequencies of this new time through the cellular matrix of our bodies. Through Breath Translation and coaching skills we learn from the patterns that arise in the breath and how to hold space for what is moving while deeply trusting in the Universal intelligence of the human bodies innate wisdom.
Together we will enjoy two breath sessions daily, share in council, daily movement, rest and fresh catered nourishment for the purpose of healing, embodiment, world service and balance.
