The leader in online yoga teacher training expands its certification offerings with a comprehensive, on-demand breathwork program rooted in both ancient tradition and modern science
HOBOKEN, N.J., April 20, 2026 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- YogaRenew, the international leader in online yoga teacher training, today announced the launch of its new Breathwork & Pranayama Certification — a 50-hour, self-paced online program led by beloved instructor Joe Miller.
More than a year in development, the certification is designed to take students far beyond technique, offering a deep dive into the philosophy, physiology, and practical application of breathwork — one of the fastest-growing healing practices in the wellness world. The program covers the history and philosophy of pranayama, the functional mechanics of breath, postures for each practice, and essential concepts like timing, ratios and location. Students will also receive comprehensive guidance on teaching breathwork safely, including how to identify contraindications for techniques such as ujjayi, kapalabhati, nadi shodhana, viloma and dirgha.
"At YogaRenew, we've always prioritized education that empowers students with both knowledge and confidence," said CEO & Founder Nicolas Goudy. "This breathwork and pranayama certification, led by Joe Miller, brings together decades of experience, scientific insight and practical teaching tools. It's designed not just to teach techniques, but to help practitioners truly understand the mechanics and impact of breathwork — so they can apply it safely and effectively."
Joe Miller brings decades of experience from both traditional and academic settings to the program, including a master's degree in applied physiology from Columbia University. One of YogaRenew's most adored instructors, Miller already has several courses, series and a yoga anatomy teacher training available on the YogaRenew platform and app, making this certification a natural and highly anticipated addition to his catalog.
"Breathwork is one of the most powerful tools for change and a rapidly growing practice," said Joe Miller. "Our goal is to make it both deeply understood and widely accessible through this certification."
The certification is fully online and on-demand, allowing students to move through the material at their own pace. Upon completion, students will have the skills and confidence to guide their own breathwork sessions — whether for personal practice or in a teaching capacity. Early feedback from the founding members' launch has been exceptional, reflecting the enthusiasm the YogaRenew community has long shown for Miller's teaching style and depth of knowledge.
YogaRenew has established itself as the global leader in online yoga teacher training, with over 10,000 five-star reviews and more than 100,000 students across 190 countries. The Breathwork & Pranayama Certification is now available at $249 at YogaRenewTeacherTraining.com.
