Oh wow! I spent my Sunday Morning at BreathCamp to get my BLS/CPR certificate and let me tell you it was amazing. Brent is awesome, he is a great instructor and great Human. BreathCamp is located in the second floor, once you open the door you will immediately be greeted by Brent, who is a full energy and will make you feel comfortable and welcomed. Everyone gets the chance to introduce themselves and you get to say why are you there, which is awesome to break the ice. Brent really made the class so chill and nice. We were bringing mannequins back to life with songs by Nirvana, Queen, Amy Winehouse, etc. My favorite part was when Allie came out to say Hi! She is the cutest doggo and she made sure she said hi to everyone. There is a small parking lot available, but I parked on Ventura Blvd. there were plenty of spots available. Thanks Brent you are awesome! Nice Michael Myers tattoo! Lol Happy Halloween Yelpies. read more

BreathCamp - Doing my job with Tiger for ESPN - CPR Classes Near Me - Los Angeles, California

I had to get my BLS/ CPR certification for school. I signed up for this class through American Red Cross' website since it was the nearest to me. Brent, the instructor, was so energetic. He knows the material really well and made class enjoyable! He is absolutely hilarious and encouraging through this whole process. I was never bored and he made learning the material really fun. Thank you, Brent! read more

I have never had as much fun as I did today in this First Aid/CPR class run by Brent. The energy was amazing, and the time passed by so quickly, without realizing it. He uses music to help with compression speeds etc, which is awesome, and it hyped us up to just keep going. You never felt silly answering a question, his energy is off the wall amazing, he is all about feeling comfortable in the class whilst engaging with the activities needed for the certification, so it was a real easy class to finish up and certify the online part that you do at home first, before you arrive in class. He knows his stuff incredibly well, and I was sad when it ended! And to top it all, he does dog and cat cpr classes also! So all you animal lovers out there, a nice way to spend an hour or two and then pop into Casa Vega next door after for a well deserved margarita! read more

Such a fun class. Brett was incredible. He makes you feel so comfortable and he's hilarious. 10/10 I can't wait to do it again in 2 years ! Thank Brett read more

Brent is a fantastic instructor! I was really nervous to renew my CPR/first aid license because it's been many years. My mom and I came together and had such a good time! He explains everything in detail and makes the class very fun. It's nice that he doesn't make you feel dumb if you don't understand something on the first try, second try, or even the third try. The first thing I noticed upon walking in is that it was freezing in there (a positive given it's nearly 100° out today and you get a good workout during the class). It was also spotless in there, everything was laid out perfectly, and he's kind enough to offer drinks and snacks. I was excited to learn he also offers a dog and cat CPR class which we are definitely going to attend. I've already told quite a few people about it and hope they join me as well. Thanks for such an awesome class and being an amazing instructor. There is a reason why every single rating is five stars! We came to this class from Ventura County and plan to return here every two years when we need to renew our certification. read more

Brent was incredibly energetic and knowledgable. He knew when to get serious and focus on the facts, and when to be entertaining and engaging to keep the group's focus. My husband and I feel very ready to bring our new baby in the world -- now that we're armed with first aid and CPR training for adults, children, and infants. Definitely recommend BreathCamp! read more

BreathCamp - Michelangelo - CPR Classes Near Me - Los Angeles, California

Amazing! I've taken a few BLS/CPR classes and super happy that BreathCamp was available. I found them through the American Red Cross website and happy to see many different available time slots. There is a parking lot or also plenty of street parking on Ventura Blvd. Brent is very enthusiastic and explains all the concepts you learn online in an easy to understand way. He doesn't make you feel weird if you don't remember an answer Also I must add that previous certification classes did not have adult and baby dummies that were advanced as the ones here. I totally appreciate that the adult dummy had light indicators to show if your compressions were at the right pace/depth and that the dummy actually shows the chest rising and falling. Definitely makes you more prepared for real life situations in my opinion. Or at least more comfortable to prepare for an emergency! Must add the fact that Brent has covid precautions on lock. We wore masks during class and he had us all wear gloves + a plastic disposable most protector for the dummy when we practiced the ventilations. Thanks so much! I will definitely be recommending to fellow colleagues and anyone who needs to get their BLS/CPR certified. I've done quite a few years of BLS classes for health care professionals and this is seriously the best one yet! You can do the hybrid class where you take the online portion first before arriving. I am recommending Brent to all my colleagues and anyone renewing. (He also provides organic snacks and water!) read more

I prefer this location because of the proximity to where I live. Also, Brent the instructor keeps it upbeat and lively, he has wonderful energy & is very professional. This is the second time I've done my CPR/first aid here and I will keep returning! read more

Brent made this class so much fun and so informative. everyone got to ask all the questions they needed to and I left feeling pretty confident in what I had learned, especially having no experience in the medical field. I would recommend this class to everyone who wants to learn! read more

BreathCamp - CPR Classes Near Me - Los Angeles, California

Brent is sensational. I learned an immense amount of sacred information of how to care for my animals and any animal within a couple of hours! Let me back up and share my experience upon first entering his gorgeous space...he was there to greet me with a warm smile and his backdrop was this immaculate. High-ceiling studio with great lighting and perfectly organized yoga mats lined up with giant plush doggies and necessary supplies we would use during our class. He encouraged each of us to talk about our animal babies and asked what brought us to his class that morning. My reason was that I want to have the confidence and knowledge for what to do in case of any animal emergencies, Then we got to hear about Brent's beloved animal babies- beautiful 17 year old Nema and mini pit bull, Allie. He told us his wonderful, heartwarming stories of how he and they collided and then we got to meet Allie! I was choked up as she sauntered around the studio, hamming it up while we cheered for this sweet mama. Brent is such an incredible, loving human and animal dad. His passion and love comes through powerfully while he shares his wisdom and brilliance and teaches us! I now know what to do if an animal is choking, having a seizure, ingested poison; how to properly wrap a broken leg with a DIY tourniquet; I have an invaluable ap now installed on my phone with everything I need to know; very important items to add to my homemade first aid kit. I know how to do CPR! And how to do it correctly- there are different methods for different dogs and appearances of dogs! We practiced CPR compressions and breaths to the beats of inspirational music! So helpful and fun! I was emotional during the course- every new lesson we learned- especially the CPR, I imagined it was the actual, real moment- one of my precious babies was in need of me to save their life and I was empowered now with the right tools, thanks to Brent! Sign up for his class immediately. I will return to him to take Human CPR class (I only know how from the movies). I will learn the correct way from the best! And I encourage you to peruse his website. He teaches several other types of classes in addition to being a personal trainer! Best money you can spend. Thank you so much, Brent! I am so grateful for you. Website link: https://www.breathcamp.net read more

Just received my CPR certification with BreathCamp and I can honestly say, it was a lot of fun! For being such a serious and scary reality, Brent makes it light & serious at the same time. He covers it all. He is extremely knowledgeable and it shows. But, being able to find the balance to help us learn and make it fun its own skill. I mean, we were pumping compressions on dummies to Nirvana for crying out loud, hitting the beat. Lol! It was great. And the online certification course from Red Cross was amazing. Really easy to use and I learned a lot. Thanks so much Brent!! read more

Christina is an amazing instructor and did a great job giving clear and concise information. She answered all our questions and gave us good information. Class went by fast before I even knew it. read more

I honestly thought this class was going to be a drag! The instructor, Brent made the class so much fun, hyped us up and really showed us the right way to save a life! The money spent is well worth it! Highly recommend if you need to get trained or renew your certification!!!! 5 stars read more

Excellent! Fun and informative. I have over a dozen BLS training and this by far was the most engaging. The instructor had a strong grasp of the material, brings energy, and good music as a teaching aid. read more

This was a fantastic class. I learned so much. I would recommend this class to anyone who needs to renew their BLS certification. I feel so prepared now, more than I have with previous BLS classes. read more

Brent is an Informative and interactive instructor. Makes you think and puts your skills to the test while keeping it lively. I highly recommend Breathcamp and especially Brent! read more

Brent was awesome! He makes the class both fun and enjoyable. Time flew by, would highly recommend!

What a fabulous experience we had at BreathCamp with Brent! He was SO energetic, enthusiastic and encouraging. He made this experience so much fun. There were no stupid questions or stupid answers and he made everyone feel at home. He also made it a point to get to know everyone in the class and provided personalized attention to our techniques. The facilities were SUPER clean and COVID friendly. It felt very very safe in these challenging times. Also, Brent was kind enough to provide an AMAZING selection of drinks and snacks. Seriously the snack game was on point - SkinnyPop, Lara Bars, Belvita, Oreos, Nutter Butters, etc. Seriously such a nice touch for this class! Another nice touch was the really fun music! Lastly, the training was paramount. Brent had such a good way of really drilling the concepts into our heads and providing a reason for everything we do in CPR. This made sure that we didn't forget what was taught. I hope I never have to use these skills, but I feel much more confident now after taking this class. You truly cannot choose a better place to do your BLS certification than this place!!! read more

Best CPR class ever! My friends and I needed to get our BLS renewed in a pinch, and we were able to sign up for this class the day before which was extremely convenient. Due to COVID, part of the class was online prior to arrival. Our instructor was named Brent, and he was wonderful from start to finish. He helped everyone stay engaged and feel comfortable during the class. The site was fully compliant with social distancing and everything was sanitized prior to our arrival. In addition, the playlist was amazing. It was so great to hear something other than Stayin Alive during BLS!!! A special touch was that there were lots of snacks and drinks available for us. There was a full fridge with water, seltzer waters and juice, as well as oreos, popcorn, lara bars, etc! The training was wonderful, and Brent made sure to go over all the key points from the online portion of the course as well. He also went through real-life scenarios with us, in the event we have to use these our skills. After this class, I feel totally comfortable using these skills if necessary!! read more

Above and beyond! This class was super engaging, conducted in a professional manner, and the instructor provided a lot of helpful information for bringing these skills into the real world. Definitely recommend. read more

Wonderful way to learn first aid and keep certification up to date! I'm adding at least one friend or family member each year.

I appreciate the hybrid class structure. It's better than sitting in classroom for 4hrs. We got to do the online modules/test on our own time at home (or wherever you have access to a computer and internet) self paced and then did the physical skills review in class the next day. Both take about 2-2.5hrs. Brent is a great BLS instructor. He was very engaging, and we we were able to spare 30 mins of class time due to everyone being knowledgeable and participating with enthusiasm. Would recommend for BLS certification and renewal. read more

BreathCamp - CPR manikins - CPR Classes Near Me - Los Angeles, California

Although I don't work in the healthcare industry, I like to keep my CPR and BLS certificates up to date just in case of emergencies. This class was by far the best BLS class I've taken. The facility is very well kept, and Brent has all of the tools you need to learn and retain that knowledge. Brent was also an amazing instructor, and made the class very upbeat and fun. Other classes you take can be monotone and boring, but Brent kept it exciting with jokes, stories, etc. which will definitely help with knowledge retention. Definitely recommend taking your CPR/BLS or any other class here. I also learned he has a pet CPR class which I am definitely going to be checking out. read more

I took the BLS with Brent and Chris. I was very nervous to attend this class because I have never taken one before. I was so nervous I even forgot a few things when he would ask me. He made me feel comfortable though and asked me if I had any questions before moving on. I liked that he had music and would make it fun. Thank so much Brent and Chris! Will definitely be back when I have to renew in 2 years. read more

Brett was my instructor and he was freaking awesome!! 2 years ago I went to a Sunday cpr course and i literally was falling asleep during the whole thing. I was counting down the seconds. Today I came prepared with a big mug of matcha thinking it would be the only way I'd get through another cpr class but honestly I didn't even need it. Brett had us doing compressions to EDM music anyways, if you ever have to waste a Sunday going to a cpr class, AT LEAST make it this one! read more

Just got my BLS at Breathcamp and I wanted to take a minute to commend Brent on a job well done. There were only a few of us in this particular class but he kept his enthusiasm and energy up the entire time and made the class fly by. He knows his stuff and he communicates the important information well. The studio was clean and organized the equipment was top notch. You won't find a better experience. I highly recommend him! read more

BreathCamp - Brent doin' his thang! - CPR Classes Near Me - Los Angeles, California

Fantastic. This would be my fourth time doing a CPR class in the last six years. Each time before this I always left unconfident that I would know what to do in an emergency, whether it be because the instructors assumed too much of our knowledge or they just blew past the content to get done sooner. This time with BreathCamp it was a breath of fresh air (no pun intended, lol). The premises was very neat, clean, and professional. Brent, our instructor, was energetic, funny, patient, and thorough. It seems Red Cross has very little to do with the quality of the in-person classes but stumbling onto BreathCamp was a stroke of luck ;) Also, do Red Cross' mix of online/in-person. The online curriculum is laid out very well - almost like a video game. It is interactive and allows you to go at your own pace. I liked it so much I did it twice. When it comes to the theory, I thought this format was much better than an in-person format due to the stress, time constraints, and susceptibility of human (instructor) compromise. This online portion could have been dull and unengaging, but it was actually a home run. Kudos to Red Cross on getting this right at least. The final in-person session with Brent was a good way to solidify what I had learned. read more

Great class with a motivated teacher! Brent was well prepared, friendly and delivered the content in a very approachable manner. Highly recommend!! read more

This is my second time renewing my BLS via BreathCamp. My first experience was so great that I knew I had to come back! I seriously love this place. Brent is so kind, lovely, and encouraging. I love that he motivates without belittling or making anyone feel stupid, which I've experienced in some CPR classes. The classroom is SO clean and the equipment is all in perfect condition. It's a welcoming atmosphere instead of feeling like a stuffy classroom. Bonus: there are snacks, drinks, and coffee! After a shot of espresso and the awesome music Brent plays, I was amped and ready to do some high quality CPR. I've always dreaded doing my renewals, but thanks to Brent, I look forward to them AND I retain more information. read more

BreathCamp is a perfect place if you want to get your CPR certificate. Education include 2 steps. 1- online classes, 2- practice (have to go to BreathCamp and perform CPR). Brent (instructor and the owner) is patient, ready to help and explain again if you are struggling. Thank you for your time reading this review. Stay safe! read more

BreathCamp - I got my CPR keychain since I completed both online and practice training. - CPR Classes Near Me - Los Angeles, California

Brent at Breathcamp made it easy and it felt like it went so fast. He's kind and funny. This was a excellent experience. If you are looking for a great cpr training class I would go here. I've been to others and this one was the best so far read more

Just finished my BLS course with Brent in the Sherman Oaks location next to Casa Vega and he was by far the best instructor I have had for this course in the last 20 years. Initially I wasn't sure about using this third-party to get my Red Cross CPR certification for work, but it was definitely legit and so much fun. Brent was funny, energetic, gave a lot of real life scenarios, and played more current music rather than just Stayin Alive and Another One Bites the Dust. I never thought I'd say this but it felt like the time just flew by and I learned. There was no incentive in writing this review, I was just so impressed I wanted to let others know. Brent also teaches a CPR class for animal emergencies. read more

Best place to do your CPR/first aid/AED certification. The place is set very nice , super clean, and pleasant to spend the 2 hours of the training. Nice choice of coffee, tea, water and light snacks are set for you. Brent the owner is amazing! Very energetic and dedicated to make sure you understand the material and enjoy the learning process. (I took the course a long while ago at a different spot, and they didn't care where you get it or not, just rushed through the material) Most importantly, Brent made me feel comfortable and added to my confidence by going over all the details and answering all of my questions. I feel now , that I can actually help someone in case of a health emergency. Highly recommend this place for your certification needs! read more

Fun, entertaining, plenty of learning. Pretty quick and the staff was knowledgeable. Nurses, pharmacist there getting the recertification that day. Highly recommended read more
