The program is clear about its limits: educational, not therapy or a guaranteed income, with medical clearance before you practice. They also publish a reference library of research behind the method.
What to weigh: this is their Founding Practitioner Cohort, so you would be among the first through it. The price comes only after an application and a call. Plan on about 10 hours a week for four months.

These lessons cover the same ground Quantum Breath lists: safety, integration and launching a practice.
What we don't teach: the eight Quantum Breath journeys, such as Quantum DMT Breathwork, or Dr Espen's coaching frameworks. We don't certify anyone in Quantum Breath. If you need those, train with them.
