A personal message from Anthony

For over 50 years, I have harnessed the potential of conscious breath to guide people toward holistic health and personal transformation. Along the way, I noticed gaps in the breathwork community: trainings that are too short, inconsistent quality standards, and a lack of trauma awareness.

That is why Alchemy of Breath exists. We were the first online breathwork school in the world, and today we are recognized as one of the most thoroughly accredited and intensive institutes anywhere, having reached millions of people and certified over a thousand facilitators.

I have poured my entire life's work into this single training. If you are ready to find genuine clarity on your path, let's bring the transformative power of breath to the world, together.

A moment of stillness and reflection
Is this you?

Tap what resonates, and be honest with yourself

You have tried changing your diet, the workshops, the ice baths. Yet as Bessel van der Kolk says, the body keeps the score. If the same old patterns keep creeping back, the breath may be the doorway you have not yet opened.

Overwhelm

Life's demands sometimes seem too great. Stress and anxiety have become constant companions.

Untapped potential

You sense repressed parts of yourself, emotions like anger or shame, holding you back from your fullest expression.

Limiting beliefs

Deeply rooted convictions make you doubt your worth and keep the life you deserve out of reach.

A pull toward purpose

You feel called to guide others toward healing, whether alongside your current work or as a new path entirely.

It sounds like the breath is already calling you. A free consultation is the gentlest way to find out where it leads.

If meditation is about clearing your mind, then breathwork is about freeing your ability to feel.

Do you still have questions?

Answers to the most frequently asked questions

I have no prior breathwork experience. Can I still join?+

Yes. The training is designed for individuals with varying levels of experience and backgrounds. A comprehensive introductory module guides you through the foundations of breathwork. It is equally valuable for personal growth and for therapists, coaches, and wellness practitioners adding a profound tool to their work.

What is Conscious Connected Breathwork?+

A powerful technique where inhalation and exhalation flow seamlessly without pauses, often accompanied by specially curated music. It calms the nervous system, activates the parasympathetic response, and helps release emotional blockages and limiting beliefs, creating space for deep healing and transformation.

What certification will I receive, and what will I be qualified to offer?+

You receive the Alchemy of Breath Facilitator Certification, a globally recognized qualification. It equips you to facilitate 1:1 sessions, group workshops, and transformative breath journeys in a safe, trauma informed way, in person or online. It is also a strong asset within an existing coaching, therapy, yoga, or bodywork practice.

I'm already a holistic practitioner. How does this help my current offerings?+

Breathwork is one of the most effective ways to help clients release stored emotions and regulate their nervous system, often faster than talk therapy or bodywork alone. Graduates amplify their impact, deepen client transformation, and expand their offerings with breathwork workshops, private sessions, and guided experiences.

Is this only for people who want to become facilitators?+

Not at all. Many participants join purely for personal growth, self-healing, and transformation. The techniques integrate beautifully into coaching, therapy, bodywork, yoga, and holistic wellness professions, or simply into your own life.

What do I need to join this training?+

A willingness to deeply explore and transform yourself. An open mind and the motivation to discover and apply the healing power of breath are essential. No prior experience or professional background is required.
