Professionalism and the Australian Breathwork Association
The Australian Breathwork Association recognises the practitioners and trainers listed below.
All our members have had their training credentials verified and are therefore properly qualified, professional and meeting ABA ethical standards. See Association's Code of Ethics and Code of Professional Conduct
We encourage you to choose a Breathwork Practitioner and/or Trainer from our membership, as the ABA is not able to take responsibility for unregistered practitioners or trainers and does not countenance any illegal or unethical behaviour.
