At One Breath Institute, we provide tools for transformative healing. Discover your authentic self through our trauma-informed breathwork training.

Person-Centered Education for Trauma Resolution

Redefining healing, Inspiring heart-centered communities

We redefine healing through innovative, person-centered breathwork education, fostering empowered and heart-centered communities guided by experienced breath coaches. Join us in the journey of transforming lives, One Breath at a time.

Why Breathwork?

Because it works. Breathwork gets to the root of your problems in a way that nothing else can.

Because breathwork gets to the root of your problems, your life gets better. You find it easier to let go of your bad habits, and to create healthy ones you’ve struggled with sticking to in the past.

We offer the best breathwork training from certified facilitators to help you feel a deeper connection within yourself and with others, see things from a new perspective, feel happier and more self-loving.

Why One Breath Institute (OBI)?

Our breathwork training is the most comprehensive breathwork training program you will find, globally. As an accredited school by the Global Professional Breathwork Alliance, OBI is your trusted partner on the journey to becoming a certified trauma-informed Introspective Breathwork® Practitioner. We are leading certified breathwork training near you and online, changing the world one breath at a time!

We designed Introspective Breathwork® Therapy as a system supporting healing and self-actualization.

We believe -
Every individual holds within them their own solutions.
We can help you find them (and learn how to support your clients in this way).
Your body is designed to heal itself.
You CAN be and have all you desire.
YOU are enough, YOU matter and what you want for your life holds importance!

At One Breath Institute, we create an environment that supports healing and wholeness. We provide support and a community in which you will feel heard, seen, valued and held. We invest in you, and, if you allow us to, walk with you every step of the way as you move through our programs in order to ensure your success. We keep our class sizes small so we can connect with you as an individual and learn how we can best support you, what you need, and how you learn. Our focus is on you, the individual, as you develop your skills as a Breathwork Facilitator, deepen your knowledge and create a sustainable business as a Breathwork Practitioner. At OBI, you are not just a number... this is just one way we stand out from other breathwork schools.

The 4 Pillars of our Breathwork School

Conscious Community

We provide a safe haven for people to connect and heal in this crazy world.

We have become a global movement, and appreciate the diversity of our community.

A big part of our mission is helping you to accept, trust and love yourself — so you feel empowered to be yourself and live authentically. You are always welcome and encouraged to show up exactly as you are — no need to hide or change anything about yourself.

Trauma Healing

Our society is so permeated with trauma that we have normalized things which are not normal or OK. At OBI, we relate our society to a fishbowl--as if we're all swimming in a 'fishbowl of trauma'. Fish swim in polluted water, doing the best they can. If the water were clean, the fish would feel better, be healthier, and be more likely to thrive. The same can be said for humans, where trauma is the pollution.

Those who choose to consciously heal and transform their trauma are 'clearing the water' for others--helping to change the world, in our case through somatic breathwork!

Embodiment

Breathe Life into Your Being: Embrace breathwork as an Embodied Spiritual Practice.

Breathwork is more than a practice; it's an embodied and spiritual journey. To reach self-actualization, integrate all aspects of yourself—physical, mental, energetic, and spiritual. 

OBI teaches the history of holotropic breathwork therapy and rebirthing breathwork, and about how our approach is different. Introspective Breathwork® Therapy is less about controlling the breath and more about allowing it to “breathe you”, guiding a transformative process and allowing you to embody your truest self and realize your full potential.

Knowledge & Support

Our students tell us they're amazed at how much support they receive from us during and after their breathwork training.

We care about you and want you to succeed as a professional breathwork teacher, which is why our program is 2 years. We don’t stop at the minimum training, certifying you as a Breathwork Facilitator only (left to start a business without any mentorship or further guidance). We dedicate a second year of support focused on your professional development from a business perspective. You will receive training and coaching as you discover your niche clientele and earn your advanced certification as a Breathwork Practitioner.

Our school received praise from the GPBA on how comprehensive our training is.

We walk with you every step of the way as you move through our Breathwork Practitioner training!

Hear what our students say about OBI

“Learning at One Breath is a very unique and supportive journey to health, emotional freedom, and trauma resolution. I completed The Personal Journey, am currently in Facilitator training, and moving into Practitioner training in September 2023. One Breath offers me everything I could need or want towards personal and professional growth.”

— Brittany Brdecka

"My experience with OBI has been nothing short of incredible! The conscious community of like minded souls has been powerful for my transformation into the best version of myself! Absolutely would recommend it for anyone and everyone!"

— Ryan Creager

“I had an amazing time being a part of the personal journey. I learned so many things that have helped me heal. I now have so many tools and techniques I can use to help others as well. Not only has this experience taught me so much, but it has also allowed me to meet and form relationships with other amazing women. Thank you, Debbie and Lisa. You all are amazing.”

Keisha A

"I decided to train as a breathwork facilitator as it seemed like the natural next step on my own healing journey and also facilitating others. I chose to train with OBI as they have the most comprehensive online training, specifically in the area of trauma."

Emma Greenslade

“Breathwork has been a daily part of my life for about 4 years now and I have been curious about facilitating breathwork. As a massage therapist, breathwork is something I could easily incorporate into sessions for additional health benefits. I chose One Breath Institute for their focus on releasing trauma through breathwork!”

— Miles Tade

“I am very excited to start my breath work training with One Breath Institute, to not only have a deeper understanding of myself but others who have experienced trauma & how to help heal from it. As well as using the knowledge I acquire in training to pay it forward and create a space for my community to heal and starting anew, just as I myself was so fortunate to be able to do.”

— Mia Hastings

“I am choosing to train to be a facilitator to heal others like myself. To bring awareness of the power of breathwork to the FIRE/ EMS service. To restore health and healing to myself.”

— Jason Barger

“After experiencing deep and lasting transformation as a result of breathwork, I am excited to share these tools with others. My deep desire is to connect with others at the heart level and support them on their own journey of self discovery. I feel grateful and passionate in the knowing that we are all capable of healing and truly living life from a place of wonder!”

— Cori Thompson
