Breathwork Training FAQ

 

+ I am new to breathwork. Can I attend the training?

Yes. It is for newbies, and veteran breathwork students alike. You will receive the training material from your level of understanding, and can implement it as best fit for you.

+ Can I take the training if I don’t want to become a breathwork teacher?

Yes! Half of the students in the training are taking it for their own healing and transformation, and the other half to teach breathwork. Think of it as you becoming your own healer for yourself and others.

+ I am pregnant, can I attend the training?

Yes. I have facilitated many classes, trainings and privates with pregnant women up until one week before birth.

+ Can I start teaching breathwork right after module 1?

Yes, you can start teaching breathwork private one-on-one sessions. You will have enough information to apply to clients. I would encourage it, as you get to practice and refine your intuition and grounding techniques. However, I would encourage you to hold off teaching groups larger than 3 students.

+ When can I start teaching groups?

You can start teaching groups, after taking module 2. In module 2 we will work with heavier emotions, traumas, addictions, abuse, volatility, etc. You need to feel comfortable enough to stay grounded within these heavier traumas, and have enough knowledge to know what to do when these themes come up in class.

+ Can I start teaching at Unplug Meditation?

You can apply to get on the sub list after you graduate from module 2. There will be a final assessment, and you will either get approved, or will be asked to practice working with clients/students a bit longer for more experience. This way we get to set you up for success, and hold our standards high, which is something we are known for.

+ Can I leave a deposit if I can’t pay the full tuition?

Yes, call the front desk, and they can apply a deposit of $250 for you.

+ When must my tuition be paid in full?

One week prior to the start date. If you need an extension, you may call the front desk and request an extension of 4 days. This means tuition be paid in full by the Wednesday, two days before the start of the training that Friday.

+ Do I get to assist the trainer to deepen my study becoming a breathwork teacher?

Yes if you sign up for module 2, on the last day of module 1, you get to assist the trainer during one of her weekly scheduled breathwork classes. It is a GREAT opportunity to read bodies, practice your intuition and watch the flow of class behind the scenes. It’s incredibly informative, for no charge.

+ Do I get any discount if I sign up for both trainings?

Yes, if you sign up for module 2 on the last day of module 1 training, you get a $50 discount! Same applies if you sign up for both trainings at the same time.

+ Is there anything I need to do to prepare for the training?

You will receive an email with a homework assignment to be completed before the start of the training Friday evening. I would invite you to look at homework as a gift to you, and a way to get the most from your weekend training. The more you commit, the more you will receive in the end! Also the moment you sign up, the energy already begins to move. Make notes. See what’s coming up for you in the time prior to the training. Get clear on your intention for taking the training.

+ Be on the look out for resistance that can sneak in a few days prior to the training.

It is very common that you can get sick, your alarm doesn’t go off on time, life throws you a few curveballs on the way to the training. It just means that you are right on target and things are percolating, preparing yourself for a very transformative weekend. Anytime you say yes to stepping up into the next phase of you life, sneaky resistance can surface in the stangest ways! Don’t give in to it. If you are signed up, it means you are ready for a HUGE breakthrough and expansion.

+ Will there be a lunch break? Do I bring my own food?

Yes you will have a 60-minute lunch break on Saturday and Sunday. Also 10-min breaks twice a day over the weekend. Bring water, and snacks to hold you over. Stay away from sugar or anything that can make you tired. You will have time to go somewhere for lunch if you like to. Bring money for lunch or bring your own lunch.

+ What do I wear?

Wear something comfortable that you can sit in, and lie down in when doing breathwork. Bring layers...as energy is moving through you, your body temperature will fluctuate.

Socks to keep your feet warm if you like. If you have anything special you’d like to bring with you to support your healing journey, bring it. Like crystals, etc.
