You’ve felt the call. 
Now it’s time to answer it. 

You’ve been walking through life with a deeper sensitivity…a natural ability to support, guide and care for others. And now you’re ready to learn the approach, skills, and framework to provide a sacred space for somatic healing. You know in your heart you’re meant to be a somatic practitioner.

You’re intuitively aware of what others can’t name.

You feel deeply and you desire to serve others. But you know you need the right approach to help you to guide others without burning out.

You Know You’re Meant to Guide Others

You feel the call to support others' healing process. But most approaches are surface level and disconnected from the body. Other methods offer formulas and cookie cutter strategies that do not meet clients exactly where they’re at. You want to learn an approach that centers the nervous system and trusts in the innate wisdom of the body.

You’re Ready to Meet People Where They’re At

You’re not here to fix or rescue others. You’re here to witness, support and guide with integrity. You’re ready to lead a somatic session that is safe, sacred and transformative without losing yourself in the process.

The Somatic Healing ArtsTM Practitioner Training prepares you to guide clients through a creative somatic process that sparks profound, lasting transformation.

Embodied
Confidence

Understand how to respond to a client's unique physiology and nervous system.

Creative
Mastery

Integrate expressive arts (dance, movement vocalization, and writing) to deepen your client’s experience.

Somatic
Authority

Step into your authentic way of guiding, beyond copying someone else’s style.

This work begins with you, and ripples outward.

It’s time to deepen your impact in a way that feels sustainable, ethical and nervous system centered.

the work.

to go deep.
