What You Walk Away With

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.

Breathwork Training From Jacksonville

The closest training to Jax is Atlanta, March 19-21. It is also the only Southeast date on our 2027 calendar.

Jax is already warm in March, so this trip is about the date. Atlanta is the nearest one, and you stay on Eastern time the whole weekend.

You can fly or drive. A short nonstop out of JAX, or about 345 miles up I-10 and I-75.

Three days, Friday to Sunday, 9am to 6pm. Most people arrive Thursday. We bring snacks; plan your own meals.

Rather wait for late spring? Washington, D.C. runs May 21-23.

In person in Atlanta

Fly up for three days with Ryan and Shelby. You lead real sessions with real people, and they coach you between rounds.

Next: Mar 19-21 · $1,997

In-person details

Online from home

Learn from the house and skip the flight to Atlanta. Live calls with Ryan and Shelby run for 12 weeks, and the lessons fit around your schedule.

Starts Oct 6 · $1,497

Online details

JAX to Atlanta, by Air or by Road

Flying

JAX sits 13 miles north of downtown. Delta and Frontier both fly nonstop to Atlanta, about an hour and a quarter in the air.

ATL is Delta's main hub. From the Domestic Terminal, Five Points and Midtown are a short MARTA ride, so you can leave the rental car alone.

Driving

About 345 miles: I-10 west to Lake City, then I-75 north through Macon. Call it a long half day on the road, and give yourself Thursday for it.

Hoping for a train? Amtrak out of Jacksonville never stops in Atlanta.

March in Atlanta

Back home, March runs mid 70s by day. Atlanta is about eight degrees cooler, highs in the mid 60s, nights in the mid 40s. Bring layers and a rain shell, not a parka.

Late March is peak tree pollen up there, and that yellow dust is pine. If it gets you, pack your allergy meds. You want clear airways for a breath training.

Runners, the Gate River Run is the first Saturday of March, earlier in the month than the Atlanta weekend. Run the bridges, then come up and breathe.

Coming from across Northeast Florida

Jacksonville is the biggest city by area in the lower 48, and the First Coast stretches past it in every direction. Here is the short version by area.

From St. Augustine and St. Johns County

St. Augustine sits about 40 miles south of downtown Jacksonville and is still part of the metro. Ponte Vedra Beach and the rest of St. Johns County fly out of JAX like everyone else, or drive the whole way north.

Either way you end up in the same room in Atlanta on March 19-21. If you already teach yoga or lead circles down the coast, those three days are where you practice holding a full room before you bring it home.

From the Beaches and Amelia Island

Jacksonville Beach, Atlantic Beach, Neptune Beach and Mayport: your airport is JAX too, on the north side of the city, 13 miles above downtown.

Fernandina Beach, on Amelia Island, is the Nassau County seat, about 25 miles northeast of downtown. Fly out of JAX, or load the car and drive to Atlanta so you have your own wheels for the weekend. Coming from the Beaches or the island, the training dates are the same: March 19-21.

March in Atlanta or May in D.C.

Two in-person dates sit within reach of Northeast Florida. Atlanta (March 19-21) is closest and comes first. Washington, D.C. (May 21-23) is a flight, and JAX has nonstops to all three D.C. airports.

Clay and Baker County readers, Orange Park out to Macclenny, face the same choice from the same airport. Pick by calendar; both end in the same certification. New York follows in October, and the East Coast page puts all three side by side.

What the Training Covers

Looking for Breathwork teacher training near Jacksonville? Here is what the three days in Atlanta cover. The full curriculum lives on the certification page.

The pace is trauma-informed. The breather sets the depth. You learn to read a body, slow a session down, and bring someone back gently when it runs big.

Safety gets real time: who should sit this style out, consent before any touch, and what to do in the room when something surfaces.

Then the business side, pricing and filling your first sessions, whether that is a living room in San Marco or a porch near the water. Mentorship keeps going after the weekend. 55 students enrolled so far.

Jacksonville Breathwork Certification FAQ

Where is the closest Breathwork certification to Jacksonville?

Atlanta, Georgia, March 19-21. The venue is TBD. Flexible refund policy. Transfer or refund within 30 days of dates and location being settled. After that, Washington, D.C. runs May 21-23. If a trip is off the table, the online training gets you the same certification from your couch.
