I’m Rafael (Rafa) Ghedini, founder of Breathwork Collective, Certified Breathwork Master Facilitator, Global Certified TRE® Provider, and trauma-informed nervous system educator.
After more than a decade working in executive Technology Risk and Internal Audit roles, chronic pain and burnout led me on a personal journey into breathwork, somatic healing, nervous system regulation, and human performance. What began as a search for healing became a profound transformation that ultimately inspired me to help others reconnect with their own body, breath, and inner resources.
Today I facilitate group and private breathwork and TRE® experiences using Conscious Connected Breathing, Breakthrough-style breathwork, Heart Coherence, CO₂ tolerance training, and TRE® (Tension & Trauma Releasing Exercises). My approach is trauma-informed and integrates modern nervous system science, somatic awareness, and the connection between mind, body, and breath.
I am a professional member of the International Breathwork Foundation, fully insured, and hold current First Aid and CPR certification.
At Breathwork Collective, we create safe, welcoming, and supportive spaces where people can slow down, reconnect with themselves, release stress and tension, and explore deeper levels of clarity, resilience, and wellbeing. Sessions are intentionally kept personal and community-focused, allowing participants to feel seen, supported, and empowered throughout their experience.
Whether you are navigating stress, emotional challenges, burnout, seeking personal growth, or simply curious about what breathwork and TRE® can unlock, you are welcome exactly as you are.
I look forward to sharing this work with you.
