Every path leads to the same place: the surrender-based method, a real facilitator credential, and the confidence to hold Breathwork for real people. You learn safe, trauma-informed facilitation and the business side of filling your first rooms.
Whichever format you choose, you train directly with Ryan and Shelby in a small cohort, and you keep the graduate community and mentorship long after your final day.
We built the online cohort for people who can't travel, or who simply want to start online. Whatever your reason, it gets you there. That said, if you can make an in-person intensive work, we always encourage it. Breathing in a room with your cohort is something a screen can't fully recreate.
The nearest in-person training to Boston is New York, October 15-17, 2027. Board the Acela at South Station or Back Bay and step off at Moynihan Train Hall about four hours later. No airport, no rental car.
Washington, D.C. comes first, on May 21-23. The train runs about seven hours, so flying makes more sense. It's a short nonstop from Logan to Reagan National.
Both are 3-day trainings, Friday to Sunday, with Ryan and Shelby in the room. Neither venue is signed yet. Your deposit transfers to another training date. Refunds are handled case by case.
Torn between the two? The East Coast page lines up New York, D.C. and Atlanta side by side.
Massage therapists: Liquid Breathwork is an NCBTMB Approved Provider (#1003401). Our separate massage therapist course earns 24 CE hours. See the CE course
The Acela and Northeast Regional leave from South Station and stop at Back Bay and Route 128, so board wherever is closest to home. Both pull into Moynihan Train Hall at Penn Station.
Flying instead? JetBlue is Logan's largest carrier, and several airlines fly nonstop to New York and to Reagan National.
No car? The Silver Line SL1 runs between every Logan terminal and South Station, free from the airport side, and a free shuttle bus links the terminals to the Blue Line's Airport station. Logan Express buses run from Back Bay, Braintree, Framingham, Woburn and Danvers.
October in New York runs a couple of degrees warmer than Boston: highs in the 60s, cooler nights, so pack layers. May in D.C. runs about ten degrees warmer than home: highs in the mid 70s, lows near 60, a few rainy days. Lighter clothes, plus a rain layer.
And Boston's own leaves usually peak mid to late October, so the New York trip lands right around color season at home.
Open the block that fits where you live.
Providence is already on the line. The Acela and Northeast Regional stop at Providence station on their way from Boston to New York, so board at home instead of coming up to Boston first. Providence to New York is about three and a half hours on the Acela.
Prefer to fly? T. F. Green in Warwick has its own station on the MBTA Providence/Stoughton Line, joined to the terminal by an elevated walkway, and JetBlue flies nonstop from there to JFK. The training itself is on the New York page. For May, read the Washington, D.C. page.
From Hartford, the Hartford Line (CTrail and Amtrak) runs Springfield to Hartford to New Haven. Some Amtrak Northeast Regional trains keep going from Hartford to New York, about three and a half hours on the through Amtrak trains. Otherwise change at New Haven Union Station for Metro-North's New Haven Line into Grand Central. The New York page covers the Connecticut shoreline.
For Washington, D.C. in May, Bradley in Windsor Locks, halfway between Hartford and Springfield, has nonstops to Reagan National and Dulles. JetBlue also flies Bradley to JFK.
For the rest of Massachusetts, the trip to a Breathwork certification starts at South Station. From Worcester or MetroWest, the MBTA Framingham/Worcester Line runs from Worcester Union Station straight there, the same station the Acela leaves from.
Southern New Hampshire (Manchester, Londonderry, Salem and Nashua) rides Boston Express buses to South Station and to Logan, so you land on the same train or the same flight as everyone else. Phoenix and the online training live on the main certification page, and the East Coast page lines up the three eastern cities.
“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.
“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.
“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.

A short look at what a full Liquid Breathwork session actually looks like from the inside.
Sells out a women’s only class every month.
Fourteen years a registered nurse, and Ryan’s star student. She has kept those classes full for over two years.
“I felt like that one session of Breathwork was more impactful than multiple sessions of EMDR that I received in therapy.”
He now guides Liquid Breathwork along with practicing as a clinical psychologist.
Leads Breathwork at music festivals.
Gem & Jam and Peak State in Austin, 20+ people on the grass.
“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.
“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.
Ryan and Shelby teach the full Liquid Breathwork method over three days, surrender-based from the first breath. You guide real sessions in the room and get feedback on the spot. Most of the three days is hands-on practice, with the training manual as your guide, so you leave confident guiding on your own. See what the training covers.
Pacing is trauma-informed, which means the breather sets the speed and nothing is forced. You learn to screen people before a session, what to watch for while they breathe, and when to slow the room down.
Then the business side: what to charge and how to find your first clients back home in Somerville or the South End. Mentorship from Ryan and Shelby carries on after the weekend. Details for each city sit on the New York page and the Washington, D.C. page.

He has guided hundreds of one-on-one sessions and led groups for thousands of people. Ryan created the surrender-based method this training is built on.
Co-Founder & Lead Facilitator
A registered nurse of fourteen years, and the graduate Ryan still calls his “Star Student”. She has been selling out women’s only classes almost every month for more than two years. Shelby brings an intuitive & nurturing energy into sessions and the training, which is the part of facilitation nobody learns from a video.
"What a growing experience I have had the pleasure of having with Ryan. I'm so happy I took the chance to reach out when coming across him on the social platform. He has been so warm and authentic from the first moment we got introduced. I have learnt so much through his journey and greatful for him sharing it and the technique of this amazing breathwork with me. Do not hesitate, just do and let Ryan guide you."
"Ryan and Shelby are incredible! They create a very safe and supportive environment to practice Liquid Breathwork. I always get exactly what I need. I highly recommend taking a class!"
"I was so intimidated before starting and to now feel that it’s all possible feels so exciting. Super grateful for this experience!! Thank you Ryan! You’re such a gentle soul, wealth of knowledge, and make learning Breathwork fun and simplified!"
"The Liquid Breathwork Masters Course has been amazing! The videos are packed full of helpful content on the breath, as well as the more technical side of hosting Breathwork classes like audio equipment, Zoom tips, and crafting incredible playlists. The group calls are supportive and range from business growth to breaking down student’s teachings for feedback."
"The space you both created during the course felt incredibly warm, welcoming, and safe, which made it easy to stay present and engaged throughout. The simplicity of the Breathwork really stayed with me, and I've already started noticing how restorative it is. Grateful for the experience and for both of you!"
"LBW is always a worthwhile experience. Ryan and Shelby tend to always find a way to cultivate an environment that allows clients the space to identify and realize what they need. For me, it’s a perfect stage-setter in lead up to a stressful week."
