Our Advanced Somatic Coaching Intensive is a next step for our advanced students who have completed the Strozzi Institute Somatic Coaching Certification.

This unique intensive course is for those practitioners and coaches who are looking to sharpen their somatic coaching competencies and master practices, allowing them to better partner with clients in deeper and more potent ways.

Our senior teaching team crafted this intensive with the intent for our graduates to dive deeper into their somatic studies and learn how to coach their clients to more sustainable transformations. The work you’ll do here was born out of the requests and curiosities of our certified coaching graduates.

During this course of study, you will work with Strozzi Institute founder, Richard Strozzi-Heckler, as well as other Strozzi Teachers, to deepen into your own embodied presence while also increasing your competency and skill in moving your clients through their arcs of transformation.

This course is intentionally limited to 28 coaches in a conscious effort to foster an intimate environment ideal for authentic connection, embodied learning, and opportunities for individual attention from our instructors.

What students are saying about Strozzi Somatics:

“She presents things with extraordinary clarity…”

“Staci Haines is one of the best teachers I’ve ever encountered. She creates a safe and engaging space in which to explore and learn. And, Staci has a very grounded and warm presence, she presents things with extraordinary clarity, and she responds to inquiries and offers demos with the utmost respect and care. In addition, the content and somatic practices of the course complement each other beautifully and have the power to be transformational.”

— Misty Perez Truedson

“There’s no better place to learn & practice these skills than with the Strozzi Institute’s community of teachers and practitioners.”

“The instruction, coaching, and encouragement to be in a community of practice deepened my somatic awareness and continued to support my own embodied change, for the sake of liberation and love with power. I need – we need – this embodied competency to meet this moment. There’s no better place to learn & practice these skills than with the Strozzi Institute’s community of teachers and practitioners.”

— Caitlin Brune

“The masterful instructors were authentic…”

“It was dramatically different than anything I had experienced before.”

“We wanted a game changer for accelerating our high performing teams and our leadership team. I’ve worked with a lot of different leadership programs and the Strozzi Institute’s is the one that works. It was dramatically different than anything I had experienced before. It’s their ability to connect the mind, language, action, and the body into sustainable practices. And we were able to see actual true change in a very short amount of time. It deeply resonated with our teams in a meaningful and authentic way.”

— John Pershing, SVP HR Ascena Retail Group
