Somatic coaching is a transformative process that assists individuals, teams, and organizations to more effectively fulfill on their commitments, to work more skillfully with others, and to embody new, generative ways of being. Our methodology includes somatic awareness, somatic practices, and somatic opening. You will learn to observe how the soma reflects history, character, moods, emotions, values, and meaning. You will learn the somatic techniques, conversations, and practices, to engage with your client. You will learn how to somatically build trust and connection with your client.

This Somatic Coach certification training is an experiential, integrative course that is built on a strong theoretical foundation. While you learn the moves, techniques, and theories of somatic coaching you will also go through a transformative process in which your embodied presence will deepen. This process of building an embodied presence will significantly increase trust, connection, purpose, and meaning with your clients. We say that the Self behind the techniques is what makes a powerful coach.
