The Legacy Scholarship | Alchemy of Breath
The Legacy Scholarship · Applications open July 29

Carry the breath into the rooms that need it most.

The Legacy Scholarship places the next generation of facilitators into our training, the ones who will bring this work where it has rarely been allowed to go: hospital wards, boardrooms, recovery rooms, pain clinics. If that future is yours, the cost of the training should not be what stands in your way.

Apply for the scholarship

Applications open Wednesday, July 29 and close August 5. Every applicant hears back.

The legacy

Anthony started this. You are how it keeps going.

For fifty years, Anthony Abbagnano has carried the breath into rooms that needed it. One person, even across a lifetime, can only reach so many. The rooms he never entered are still waiting: the hospital ward, the treatment center, the company on the edge of burnout, the clinic where people live with pain that no drug has reached. This scholarship exists to send you into them. The legacy was never the school. It is the people who leave it and go where the breath has never been.

Where you will take it

The breath belongs in more than quiet rooms.

You probably already have a sense of who you are meant to reach. The training gives you the skill, the ethics, and the standing to walk into those places and be trusted. This is the impact the scholarship is really funding.

A breathwork facilitator bringing calm into an everyday setting

Hospitals and care

Bedsides, recovery wards, and the people who work in them. Breath as steadiness where medicine reaches its edge.

Addiction and recovery

For those rebuilding a life, a tool that lives in the body and cannot be taken away.

Chronic pain

Meeting pain that has outlasted every other approach, with something the nervous system already understands.

Work and leadership

Boardrooms and teams carrying more than they can hold. Calm that quietly changes how people lead.

Is this you

You already know if this is speaking to you.

We are not looking for the most qualified on paper. We are looking for the ones who can already picture the room they are meant to walk into.

  • You can name the people you want to serve, and it is not a general everyone. It is a specific room, a specific kind of suffering.
  • You have done your own inner work, or you are ready to begin, because you know you cannot guide others anywhere you have not been.
  • You feel that breathwork belongs in places that have not welcomed it yet, and you are willing to be the one who brings it there.
  • The training is the clear next step, and its cost is the one real barrier between you and it.
  • You are ready to give this everything, if you are given the chance.
Two ways to qualify

One certification, two paths to it.

Both lead to the same triple accredited qualification. Choose the shape that fits your life. The scholarship applies to either.

In their words

From people who walked through first.

My breathwork experience with Anthony and Alchemy of Breath, through festival workshops, Seeds of Alchemy, and now the Facilitator Training, has been a profound and powerful tool in my personal journey. It creates the space for deep insight, connection, and change in a safe and loving container.

Tanya LopezFacilitator Training

Breathwork continues to open doors, and the training allows me to fully investigate and be supported in my experiences. I feel like I am growing and opening toward life's untapped potential. Becoming part of an inspiring, like-minded community on a global scale is a great bonus.

Hannah GoodmanFacilitator Training

When I walked into my first breathwork with Anthony, I thought it would be a lecture on breathing techniques. An hour later, I knew it had turned my life around. The training kept me committed to the journey of self-healing I had started. I feel like my heart has opened again for the first time in decades.

How it works

Three steps, honestly held.

1
Jul 29 to Aug 5

Apply and book your interview

Answer a few honest questions and choose a time to speak with us. Applications close Wednesday, August 5 at 9pm UK time.

2
Your interview

An honest conversation

We talk through who you feel called to serve, where you are, and what the training would mean for you. This is the heart of it.

3
By Aug 14

A private invitation

We hold the interview calls, and you will hear back from us by August 14 at the latest, whatever we decide.

Questions, gently

A few honest answers.

Who can apply?+

Anyone who feels called to become a breathwork facilitator and for whom the cost of the training is a real barrier. No particular background is required. What matters is the calling and a clear sense of who you want to serve.

What is the difference between the two paths?+

The Online Training is eight months of study from wherever you are, finishing with one week at BreathCamp in Tuscany to graduate and consolidate everything you have learned (paid separately). The Live Residential Training is a four-month fast track: twenty-one days living the practice at ASHA in Tuscany, with the rest completed as online modules from home. It is half the length, with a depth that only a live immersion can give. Both lead to the same triple accredited certification, and the scholarship applies to either.

What does the scholarship cover?+

A meaningful part of your tuition, awarded at 25%, 35%, or 50% of the $7,200 fee, up to $3,600. It is a partial scholarship rather than a full ride, so there is still an investment from you. Your level is decided together with your Success Advisor.

Is it based on financial need?+

Need and fit both matter. The interview is where we come to understand both, so we can place each award where it will do the most good.

What happens in the interview?+

An honest conversation about what is calling you, who you hope to serve, your circumstances, and whether the timing is right. Nothing to prepare. Just come as you are.

When will I hear back?+

Applications close Wednesday, August 5 at 9pm UK time. We hold the interview calls after that, and you will hear back from us by August 14 at the latest, whether the answer is yes or not this time.

What if I am not chosen this time?+

You are still welcome here. We will point you toward other ways in, from free sessions to payment options on the training, and you are welcome to apply again when the doors open next.

The door is open

The room is waiting. Walk in.

A small number of places. A short window. If you already know the people you are meant to reach, this is how you get to them.
