Getting to Seattle by Air, Rail or Road

If you teach in Capitol Hill, Ballard or Fremont, you sleep in your own bed all weekend. From anywhere else in the region, pick your route below.

  • Flying into Sea-Tac (SEA). Alaska and Delta both hub there. The Link 1 Line runs from the airport to Westlake downtown in 38 minutes, with a train every 8 to 10 minutes most of the day.
  • Paine Field (PAE). The smaller airport, up in Everett. Alaska flies a short West Coast list there, Phoenix and Portland included.
  • From the Eastside. The 2 Line crosses the lake on the I-90 floating bridge, about 20 minutes from downtown Bellevue to the International District.
  • September weather. Highs around 70 and mostly dry, before the October rain. Pack layers and a light rain shell.
  • A spare afternoon. The coho run through the fish ladder at the Ballard Locks, and the Green Lake loop is 2.8 miles of flat path.

Coming From Across the Pacific Northwest

Seattle is our first training in the Pacific Northwest, so it is the one date in reach for yoga teachers across Washington State and its neighbors. Here is the trip from each.

Tacoma and Bainbridge Island

Tacoma is an Amtrak Cascades stop, and I-5 runs straight up into the city.

From Bainbridge Island, the Washington State Ferries crossing to downtown Seattle takes 35 minutes.

Vancouver and Southwest Washington

Vancouver has its own Amtrak Cascades stop, so there is no need to cross the river to Portland first. I-5 runs north from there too.

Spokane and Coeur d'Alene, Idaho

Drive I-90 the whole way, over Snoqualmie Pass. Or fly: Alaska runs Spokane (GEG) to SEA nonstop in about an hour and fifteen minutes.

Coeur d'Alene sits about 30 miles east of Spokane, so the same airport works for North Idaho.

Portland and the Willamette Valley

Amtrak Cascades starts in Eugene and stops at Albany, Salem and Oregon City before Portland's Union Station. From there it is about 3.5 hours to King Street Station, with several trains a day.

Flying instead? Alaska and Delta run PDX to SEA nonstop, and the MAX Red Line gets you from downtown Portland to PDX in about 40 minutes.

Bend, Hood River and the Gorge

From Central Oregon, Alaska and Delta both fly Redmond (RDM) to SEA nonstop, which beats driving over the Cascades.

From Hood River, take I-84 west through the Gorge to Portland and pick up the train or I-5 there.

Vancouver, British Columbia

Amtrak Cascades runs between Vancouver and Seattle, so teachers in British Columbia can ride the same line south into King Street Station.

Brittany Prince guiding a Breathwork class

Brittany Prince - LBW facilitator, owner of Awakened Prana

A Full Breathwork Session for Your Students

This weekend teaches you to lead a whole Breathwork session: the active breathing, the holds, and the stillness that follows.

Fold it into savasana, or offer it as a stand-alone workshop where you already teach. You guide real breathers all weekend, and Ryan and Shelby coach you in the moment.

Four lessons for teachers who already hold a room.

  • Vocal Cueing
  • Phrases for Guiding a Session
  • Trauma-Informed Facilitation
  • Tetany & Why It's Safe
