Train to become an accredited breathwork facilitator in the Snowy Mountains through a science-backed program that combines a 4-day in-person intensive with a complete online curriculum. From $997 AUD.
Some experiences simply can’t be captured through a screen.
There is a difference between understanding breathwork in theory and feeling the energy of a room change as someone releases, softens, and lets go. There is also a difference between observing facilitation and truly holding space for another person in one of life’s most vulnerable, transformative moments.
This training is designed around lived experience.
Set across four days in the Snowy Mountains, this fully accredited breathwork facilitator training gives you the professional foundation to begin practising from day one.
Breathless Level 1 includes a 4-day in-person intensive in the mountains of NSW, supported by a comprehensive online curriculum. Surrounded by nature and learning alongside a like-minded cohort, you’ll develop practical facilitation skills through guided, hands-on experience.
Graduates have described it as “pure magic” and “by far the best training I’ve attended.”
Those words come from participants who have returned from the mountain with real confidence and deep appreciation for the process.
Four days. Nature. Real practice. Real people.
This is where everything comes to life.
You’ll arrive in one of Australia’s most stunning landscapes, step away from the pace of everyday life, and spend four full days immersed in breathwork. You will practise, facilitate, receive, learn, and connect throughout the intensive.
This is not a retreat where you simply observe. It is a skill-building intensive where you actively do the work, supported throughout by Johannes and the Breathless Team.
By the end of the experience, you will have:
Many graduates call it “a trip of a lifetime,” and for some, it becomes the moment they truly step into the role of facilitator rather than simply learning about it.
You may join the Snowy Mountains intensive at the beginning of your training or at any stage along the way.
The in-person intensive is powerful. The online curriculum is what helps it stay with you.
Your full Level 1 curriculum is self-paced, comprehensive, and can be completed before, during, or after the intensive, depending on what suits your life best.
It includes everything you need to facilitate with confidence:
In addition, you’ll have access to live sessions every Wednesday and Friday at 7 am AEST/AEDT, ongoing practice, peer connection, and direct guidance across three 10-week cycles each year.
The online training is included in the full Breathless Level 1 package.
This training is for people who have experienced breathwork and felt something shift, and who want to create that same space for others.
It suits those drawn to embodied, science-backed, and meaningful work, and to training that prepares them for the full reality of facilitation rather than only the polished version.
You may be a coach, therapist, yoga teacher, health professional, or someone ready for a complete career change. You may also be starting without any formal background.
What matters most is your willingness to show up fully — for the mountain, for the work, and for the people you may one day guide.
As one graduate shared: “Breathless isn’t a business selling certifications. It’s a life-changing organisation that creates community, connection, profound healing, and lifelong transformation that ripples throughout the world.”
“Johannes is a remarkable human and a real master of his discipline.”
With more than a decade of experience, Johannes has worked as a freediving instructor, Wim Hof Method Instructor, Oxygen Advantage Instructor, HeartMath Trainer, and certified yoga teacher. He has facilitated breathwork for thousands of people and co-authored peer-reviewed research published in international scientific journals.
What many graduates remember most, however, is the feeling of being in the room with him.
“Incredibly talented at what they do, with boundless kindness, compassion and positivity.”
The Breathless team brings the same care and presence to every part of the in-person experience, from arrival to farewell.

This work is independently researched.
In collaboration with Macquarie University, Breathless took part in a study of 505 participants that found significant improvements in mood, substantial reductions in anxiety, and measurable growth in interoceptive awareness, with results sustained one week later.
Johannes is also a co-author of peer-reviewed breathwork research published in Brain Sciences (Banushi et al., 2023, MDPI), an internationally recognised scientific journal.
When you train with Breathless, you are learning from a practice that has been measured, studied, and published.
