DVRM® Level 2: Themed Breathwork Certification with David Magone
Five Day Intensive
Monday, June 15 - Friday, June 19
8am-4pm each day
This advanced training is designed for teachers and facilitators who want to offer breathwork with greater structure, clarity, and confidence.
DVRM® (Dynamic Volitional Respiratory Modulation) is a breathwork methodology developed by David Magone and studied through fMRI research in collaboration with Harvard, MIT, and Massachusetts General Hospital. The research explores how specific breathing patterns can influence brain states and create conditions that support focused awareness, emotional processing, and meaningful shifts in experience.
This training focuses on how to work skillfully within those states — combining precise breathing techniques with thoughtfully structured guidance.
