The Application Process

When you apply, you can select an upcoming Somatic Coach Certification training date (the program runs every January). We have limited spots available + a few pre-requisites before you are able to start coach training, so be sure to complete this step prior to moving to step 2 so that we can save your spot + ensure your program pre-requisites are underway!

Step Two: Your Work

Embodying the Somatic Soul Design Process

In order to be accepted into the Certified Somatic Coach program, you must be taking our 1:1 personal coaching program. We believe great coaches are the one's whose inner work is primary. The 12-Session Deep Discovery Somatic Soul Design journey will allow you to truly transform throughout your time with us + it will be foundational in your ability to learn + teach with confidence what you yourself have experienced. You must begin these sessions prior to training + continue your work on a bi-weekly or monthly basis. The cost of your 1:1 coaching is $250/month; it is not part of the coach certification tuition.

Step Three: Reiki Practitioner Certification

Register for the Spring or Fall Reiki Practitioner Certification Retreat

Completing your Reiki Practitioner Certification is a requirement for being accepted into the Somatic Coaching Certification Program, even if you don't intend on practicing Reiki in its traditional hands-on format. Usui Reiki is foundational in Mode's Somatic Soul Design process + coaching approach. Reiki will give you hands-on experience working with multidimensional energy, innate intelligence + the body ... and it will teach you in a way nothing else possibly could. Reiki is a profound ancient healing practice + a true gift to a highly sensitive practitioner. (Reiki Practitioner Training is open to anyone, even if you do not want to do coach training).

Step Four: Meditation

It's time to be still + get ready to begin ...

Once your application for coach training has been accepted + you have completed your registration for the program, you will receive access to begin your 40-Hour Somatic Meditation Facilitator training (if you have previously completed this training separate from the program it will be credited). Somatic meditation + the art of facilitating guided meditation will prove invaluable to your confidence + leadership in somatic coaching. Not to mention, it will do wonders for your life + professional practice.

FAQs

Here are a few common questions asked:

  • Do I have to complete my certification by a certain time?

    You will have 1-year post program to complete your certification. Should you not make the 1-year deadline, you may apply for an 'Alumni Refresh' to retake the program the following year.

  • Can the case study hours be with the other coaches in the program?

    Yes, after training you will be able to use anyone for your case studies in order to complete your hours. In your coaching case studies you will not be able to use a person more than 2 times + 2 of your case studies will use 4 on-going sessions with a single client so that you can experience working with a client over a longer period of time.

  • Does certification cost extra?

  • How much time do I need for the online learning monthly modules?

    It is important to set aside 4-hours per week to study your online material + be ready for your 2 x monthly zoom weekend classes. Preparation with your online learning + personal embodiment practices will be key to optimizing your in-class learning.
