Embodied Practitioner Training
Friday, August 1st 8am-10am et
Saturday, August 2nd 8-11am et
Both sessions will be held virtually
A 2-day somatic experience to elevate your facilitation depth, and go from intellectualizing, to integrating.
You can’t take your clients where you haven’t gone.
This 2-day training will help you feel the difference in incorporating somatic work, and go beyond simply “understanding” it. We’ll explore tools that will allow you to rely on sensation over sentences, and guide your clients into what’s living beneath their depths, so that by the end, you’ll have somatic wisdom, artful practices, and embodied, integrated confidence in your leadership.
You don’t need another mindset tool, podcast or book.
You need to trust the message in your own body’s nuance.

This training is for you
If you know you’re good at what you do, but it’s missing somatic depth, and you’ve been curious about what’s possible when you start to weave it in.
This is an excellent opportunity for therapists, coaches, yoga teachers, nurses, healers and other space holders who want to lead sessions with more nuanced precision, and creatively incorporate more body-based tools.
Above all else, this training is for you.
These practices can be brought right to your clients, but more importantly, they are designed to deepen the way you hold your Self.
Cross the threshold from intellectual knowing into embodied understanding.
