Where is your breath taking you?

Become a certified Breath Awareness Facilitator

This accredited course is designed for aspiring breath awareness facilitators who would like to learn to create, tailor and safely facilitate group and one-on-one sessions on breath awareness and self-regulation through breath.

Blending fundamentals of breathwork, facilitation and Embodied Processing, this course is trauma-informed and based on latest science and years of practical experience in corporate, community, well-being and other settings.

It is intended to bridge the current gap in breathwork certifications, most of which focus on connected breath styles for deep emotional processing and require longer and more in-depth training, and to serve growing demand for breath awareness and light breathwork sessions in the corporate world, well-being industry, schools and other contexts.
