School of Embodied Leadership
6-Day Immersive Leadership Course
The Breakthrough in Leadership You're Looking For
The School of Embodied Leadership is for dedicated leaders who are ready to overcome obstacles and move their teams forward with decisive action, emotional maturity, and embodied vision. In this six-day intensive you will discover what is not currently working in your role at work, in your community, or on team and gain strategies and tools to make necessary and lasting change in your leadership. You will walk out with proven methods and practices to stay centered and maintain your leadership presence under increasing amounts of pressure. 
​​​​​​​

In our forty years experience with training leaders, we’ve found that top leaders in their fields grapple with similar challenges. We empower leaders to work through them: 
  • "I'm indecisive and not fully confident in my actions as a leader."
  • "I want my entire team to show up collectively more confident and credible when it counts."
  • "I'm a high achiever at work, climbing the corporate ladder, but I want to find more purpose in my work."
  • "I want to leave something impactful when I move on from this company. What will my legacy be?" 
  • "I want to empower my teams to deliver higher quality work and generate actionable ideas."
We understand you.

The School of Embodied Leadership course was a profound experience for me. I was craving a deep dive embodied leadership experience, which would be as much about building capability for work, as with relational transformation. I felt myself opening, coming into my power and a firmer commitment, and more importantly, felt knowledge of how to extend this power with others. I am grateful for this work and all that the facilitators did to make it happen for us.
