‘To understand is to transform what is. Yoga became the focal grounding point to which I could gravitate myself to. Yoga has brought balance and strength to my life, not only physically and during my practice but to my mind. It has taught me to reach within for happiness, trust the process, trust myself and put my trust back into life. This is what I wish to share with you’ - Verity Coonan

Fourteen phases end with live, supervised facilitation and a real business foundation, pricing, client acquisition, scope of practice. Most graduates recoup the investment within a few weeks/months. This is the part that turns training into an actual practice. Applications open now, guide's in bio.

Part two: skill and safety. Reading a body in real time isn't a slide in a manual, it's a practiced skill, done over and over... in front of people who'll tell you when you missed something. Safety is contraindications, consent, scope of practice, knowing exactly when to refer someone out. Together with self and science, this is the whole shape of the training. Applications open now, guide's in bio.

you can teach someone a breathing pattern in a weekend. You can't teach them capacity in a weekend. VFT starts with the practitioner, not the client, you do your own work first, with supervision, before you're taught to hold it for anyone else. Then the nervous system science underneath every session you'll run. Roughly phases one through four are all you. Full curriculum's in the guide if you want the rest before applying.

Ten hours of sleep and nothing changes. Snapping over a dishwasher, then feeling like garbage an hour later. Saying “no worries” when you very much have worries. None of that is who you are, it's where you're stuck. Save this one.

What I love most is how simple this can be... I know in this world we are all chasing the quick fix. This is the "quickest" scientifically I can make it for you.
It's not hard, you can do it anywhere, anytime and I keep you focussed while you learn the process...

I searched for years... for the answer to feel like me again, to feel safe, to feel happy. It was this. And if I'm honest... I wanted someone to do it for me in the first few years... no one is coming to save you apart from you. And I believe in you. I know you can do it. Because I did and thousand of others in our community also.

Make life work for you again.

"I did a weekend course, I'm certified"

my friends, this is not a callout. this is just me being honest with you, because I care.
the breathing pattern. the certificate. the confidence to post about it.

that's a real start. it's just not the whole thing yet.

you're not behind. you're just early. and that gap between knowing the pattern and knowing what to do when it goes sideways? completely normal. also completely closeable.

cause let me tell you what actually makes a facilitator someone people trust with their nervous system...

👉🏻 knowing what to do when someone dissociates
👉🏻 knowing the difference between your activation and theirs
👉🏻 knowing exactly when to refer out
👉🏻 knowing the science, not just the pattern
👉🏻 knowing when to stop
👉🏻 knowing the nervous system in front of you

none of that comes from a weekend. it's not because a weekend is bad, it's just not long enough to cover it.

it comes from the less exciting (and so important part) than the breathwork itself: the science, the safety protocols, the supervised practice, the banked hours of breathes.

that's why VFT is structured in the way it is.

applications close Sept 9th. curriculum guide in bio if you want to see the rest before you decide.
