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.
Lake Michigan sits between you and the closest training: Milwaukee, Wisconsin, June 11-13, 2027. Venue TBD. The trip is easier than the map makes it look.
The weekend runs Friday to Sunday, 9am to 6pm Central. We bring snacks; meals are on you. Book Thursday, Friday and Saturday nights in Milwaukee so you arrive rested for the 9am Friday start.
Rather go east? Washington, D.C. runs May 21-23, and DTW flies nonstop there too. You will find it under "See all" in the cards above.
Detroit Metro in Romulus is Delta's second-largest hub, and Delta flies nonstop from DTW to Milwaukee.
The same airport covers the other trips. DTW has nonstops to Reagan National, Dulles and BWI for D.C., and to Phoenix Sky Harbor for the Phoenix trainings.
The Wolverine leaves from the New Center station on West Baltimore Avenue. Skip Michigan Central in Corktown. It reopened in 2024 as Ford's campus, and Amtrak does not use it.
Closer to Dearborn, Ann Arbor, Royal Oak, Troy or Pontiac? Board there. Detroit to Chicago takes about 5 and a half hours. The Hiawatha covers the last leg to Milwaukee in about 1 hour 29 minutes.
Give yourself a night in Chicago or Milwaukee rather than a tight connection between the two trains.
Get on I-94 and stay on it through Chicago to Milwaukee. You cross into Central time on the way. The route runs straight through Chicago, so check the drive in your maps app before you leave.
Milwaukee in June runs mid 70s by day and high 50s at night, a few degrees cooler than a Detroit June. Lake Michigan cools the lakefront, so pack a layer for evenings.
Then the clock. Wisconsin is on Central time, an hour behind Michigan. Our 9am start is 10am on a Detroit clock, so plan Friday's flight or drive by Milwaukee time.
Most of Michigan gets to Milwaukee through one of two doors: DTW or Chicago Union Station. Here is how each part of the state lines up.
Breathwork certification near Ann Arbor means the same trip as from downtown: Milwaukee, June 11-13. Ann Arbor and Dearborn are both Wolverine stops. Oakland County has three more, at Royal Oak, Troy and Pontiac.
Flying? DTW in Romulus is the airport for all of it, from Ferndale up the Woodward Corridor to the suburbs south of the city. One Delta nonstop puts you on the Wisconsin side of the lake.
Breathwork certification for the rest of Michigan runs through Chicago. All three Amtrak routes in the state end at Union Station, and the Hiawatha to Milwaukee leaves from the same building.
The Wolverine serves Pontiac, Detroit, Ann Arbor, Jackson and Kalamazoo. The Blue Water starts in Port Huron and stops at Flint, East Lansing and Battle Creek. The Pere Marquette runs from Grand Rapids through Holland and St. Joseph.
West Michigan has its own shortcut across the lake, and our Grand Rapids page covers it. From anywhere else, plan a night before the Friday session rather than a same-day connection.
“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.
Hear from past students as they went through our June 2025 training.
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 all three days together. You start by guiding one person through a Liquid Breathwork session, then a full circle. The full curriculum lives on the certification page.
Trauma-informed pacing comes first. The breather sets the depth. You learn who should sit a session out, and how to slow things down when someone needs it.
Consent and nervous system awareness run through every level, not a bolt-on module. The business lessons cover insurance, waivers and contraindications, then pricing and filling your first rooms if you plan to teach back home around Metro Detroit. Mentorship keeps going after the weekend. 55 students have enrolled so far.
Back home, take it outside: Belle Isle, the RiverWalk, the Dequindre Cut.

Founder & Lead Facilitator
8 years guiding Breathwork, 7 breath programs behind him including 4 full certifications, and a 21-day Breath Mastery Retreat in the Baja desert with Dan Brulé. 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."
Milwaukee, Wisconsin, June 11-13, 2027. Venue TBD. Flexible refund policy. Transfer or refund within 30 days of dates and location being settled. Washington, D.C. in May is the other nonstop from DTW, and the online training runs from home.
Yes. Delta flies nonstop from DTW to Milwaukee. Prefer the train? Ride the Amtrak Wolverine to Chicago Union Station, about 5 and a half hours, then the Hiawatha to Milwaukee, about 1 hour 29 minutes. Milwaukee runs on Central time, so our 9am start is 10am on a Detroit clock.
The June 11-13 Milwaukee training is $1,997, not including lodging or meals. Online is $1,497. Deposits and monthly payment plans are available. Questions: [email protected] or 480-660-9890.
