Module 1: Core Somatic Skills
Module 1 focuses on your personal journey of trauma integration and embodiment. You’ll deepen your understanding of core somatic concepts while building a strong foundation through creative exercises, case studies, and daily practices.
We focus on these concepts in Module 1:
Felt-Sense - The subtle, intuitive awareness of physical sensations and emotions in the body, providing a bridge between inner experiences and conscious understanding.
Resourcing - The ability to connect to sense of grounding and stability.
Trauma Imprints - Residual patterns of emotional, physical, or behavioral responses stored in the body after a traumatic experience. The root cause of all mental health issues.
Capacity/Resilience - The range of arousal within which a person can function and process emotions without becoming overwhelmed or shutting down.
Self-Regulation - The skill of managing your emotional and physiological states through body-based practices, thoughts, or behaviors.
Titration - Gradually introducing small doses of sensation or emotion to avoid overwhelm and promote safe processing.

Principles Of Embodied Learning:
Here’s what you can expect in all our classrooms.
-
We believe in embodied learning. True understanding comes from engaging our bodies, emotions, and senses in real situations. Instead of passively absorbing information, we practice them, explore their nuances, and integrate knowledge on a deeper level. This hands-on approach cultivates authentic mastery and meaningful personal growth.
-
Stories shape how we understand ourselves and the world. By weaving concepts into real-life examples or case studies, students see how ideas translate into practice. Narrative-based learning sparks curiosity, empathy, and reflection, making it easier to retain information and connect lessons to meaningful, everyday experiences.
-
We encourage our students to practice holding space right away, leaning into the fear of leading others. Early practical engagement helps students bridge theory and reality, revealing knowledge gaps and building competence through trial and reflection. Working on real tasks or with real clients fosters confidence, sharpens problem-solving skills, and prepares learners for the professional world from day one.
-
We believe expert teachers aren’t just academics—they actively practice what they teach. By embodying these principles in their own lives, they bring depth, authenticity, and lived experience into the classroom. Their engaging teaching style and strong communication skills inspire students to explore, question, and apply their learning with confidence.
