SOMA+IQ: SOMATIC TRAINING

your holistic practitioner pathway:

You've probably noticed: traditional talk therapy and coaching methods often hit a wall. Your clients understand their struggles intellectually, yet their anxiety, stress, and trauma responses persist, keeping them stuck in repetitive cycles.

Why? Because true healing isn’t just about changing thoughts; it requires tapping into the body’s innate intelligence. Without directly engaging the nervous system, lasting transformation remains elusive, often leading to frustration for both you and your clients.

Somatic Practitioner Training fills the gap.

Through our fully accredited training, you'll learn to skillfully guide your clients through experiential practices that speak directly to their nervous systems.

continue together

And because true mastery is ongoing, after certification, you'll join The Network, our supportive community of certified practitioners, offering continuous education, mentorship, and growth.

OUR PHILOSOPHY:

a modern
approach to
nervous system
healing.

Many healing modalities focus only on mindset and overlook the body: the very place where trauma, stress, and emotional pain are stored. This incomplete approach means clients continue to experience patterns of stress, anxiety, and unresolved trauma, no matter how hard they try to "think" their way through healing.

Ignoring the body’s wisdom keeps us trapped in repetitive cycles, limiting both personal and professional growth.

Soma+IQ™ reconnects mind and body for true healing through science-informed practices that combine breathwork, somatic therapeutic techniques, and emotionally intelligent coaching. 

THE PROGRAM

The #1 Somatic
training

accredited by
Arizona State University.

Many trainings equip you to discuss patterns and behaviors, but fail to give you the tools to truly shift them. Without understanding the body's intelligence, your ability to create lasting change remains limited. Our program teaches you cutting-edge somatic techniques, blending science-informed physiology with practical, real-world application. You'll deeply understand your own patterns, allowing you to confidently facilitate transformative breathwork sessions both online and in-person.

(Licensed professionals earn CEU credits upon completion.)
