Why train with HBA

An LA breathwork school, trauma-informed from the first breath.

Holistic Breath Academy is based in Los Angeles, where Bianca teaches every week. Our certification is built for people who want to guide others safely: coaches, therapists, yoga teachers, bodyworkers and anyone ready to become a breathwork facilitator.

Instead of one intense technique, you learn many ways to breathe and how to sequence them into one safe arc, with check-ins that keep everyone within their window of tolerance. Graduates now lead classes, workshops and one-on-one sessions from LA to Hong Kong.

Recognized by Yoga Alliance (YACEP), the International Breathwork Foundation and ICAHP.

The Tidal Method

Every session moves in three waves.

Breath moves like water. It can be still, it can crash, and it can settle into a clear reflection. Every Tidal Method session moves through all three.

Wave 01

Arrive

You come in mindfully and land in the body. Slow, steady breath settles the nervous system first, so the deeper work is safe.

Wave 02

Rise

Release through somatic, cathartic breath, introduced gradually. It is always the person's choice how far to go.

Wave 03

Return

Reflect and integrate from a clearer place, then come back to center.
