WHY YOGA + SOMATIC COACHING?
Embodied
Science now shows us that healing doesn’t happen through insight alone.
You can talk about a problem for years and still feel stuck in the same emotional patterns, stress responses, and nervous system loops.
And yet somehow…
Movement, nervous system regulation, emotional processing, and life coaching are still happening in seperate rooms.
Yoga
In yoga, emotion naturally rises to the surface.
Students breathe deeply. Move energy. Release stress. Open the body.
But often there’s no framework to help them process what’s actually coming up.
So transformation stays incomplete.
This training teaches you how to bridge movement with meaningful reflection, coaching, and emotional integration — all within the same session.
Life Coaching
Traditional life coaching focuses heavily on mindset, goals, and conversation.
But real change doesn’t just happen through talking.
The body closes the stress cycle through movement, breath, sound, sensation, and felt experience.
Modern coaches are beginning to realize:
you can’t think your way into healing.
You have to embody it.
This is where somatics, yoga, and coaching become exponentially more powerful together.

As soon you enroll, both Yoga for Self Mastery and the Somatic Coaching Training will be available in your online portal and through the Uplifted YTT mobile app. THREE accompanying paper manuals will mail to your house.

Why do I need to apply?

The application process is not meant to be daunting, but rather to ensure that the program is a good fit for you, and that you are a good fit for the program. We want to get to know you. And want you to make sure you will succeed!
How long is the program?

Do I need life coaching experience?
No, the Somatic Coaching methodology, the process of marketing, enrolling clients and all the paperwork will be provided for you, including lots of ideas of how you can blend Somatic Coaching with other modalities you may already teach.

How can I get started immediately if I'm not yet ready to apply?
Yoga for Self Mastery is a pre-requisite to this course (and included in tuition). If you’re not yet ready to apply, enroll in Yoga for Self Mastery as a first step to your coaching journey and complete all the videos, journaling, and practices.
Yoga for Self Mastery outlines the first of 6 life coaching frameworks within EYLC. Since this is one of the modalities you’ll use in coaching sessions with your yoga students or others if you decide to enroll and certify, it’s essential you experience this coaching for yourself.
Yoga for Self Mastery will help you:
- Feel more confident, sensual, feminine, and alive.
- Slay imposter syndrome, activate your throat/heart chakra, and kick self-sabotage to the curb.
- Discover what your “Goddess of Fun and Light” (GOFL) energy feels like in your body.
- Eliminate the inherited negative patterns from childhood or past trauma that are not the real you.
Yoga for Self Mastery is a “go at your own pace” self-study training. It encompasses the skill set of how to better your relationship, improve your sense of self-worth, feel confident, alive and approach yoga as a lifestyle. You’ll also get to see example coaching conversations and the success of past students who were coached live. Yoga practices, somatic pleasure practices, embodiment practices and meditations that exemplify each life coaching principle are provided.

AND it’s a deep dive into ONE of the MANY coaching frameworks inside Somatic Coaching.
What is Somatic Coaching?
Somatic coaching combines life coaching frameworks with somatic yoga and embodied movement practices. Rather than just teaching group yoga classes, a somatic coach works one-on-one or in small groups to help clients process emotions, heal trauma, and achieve personal breakthroughs through the body. This certification trains you in both the somatic yoga techniques and the coaching skills to guide lasting transformation — on and off the mat.

Definitely read up on What Is Somatic Yoga to help you determine if this training resonates with you.
How is Somatic Coaching different from other training or coaching?
Embodied Yoga Life Coaching is the first certification of its kind combining the ancient wisdom of Kriya Yoga with the profound healing modalities of somatic therapy to help your clients feel confident and make effective change in their lives.
During your time in training you’ll:
- Benefit from one-on-one coaching sessions with your classmates
- Receive feedback from your peers on your coaching conversations
- Get everything you need business-wise to hit the ground running with your coaching programs after graduation
- Experience this one of a kind coaching modality combining yogic philosophy, life coaching and somatic movement that you won’t find elsewhere
- Gain the confidence to assist your yoga students or non-yogi clients towards a successful transformation in multiple areas of their lives
Is Somatic Coaching ICF certified?
This training covers ICF’s ethical guidelines and core competencies, which means you’ll be eligible to apply for International Coaching Federation (ICF) membership and receive an official ICF Member badge to display on your website—if that’s important to you.
We’ll walk you through how to do this at the end of the training.
It’s important to understand: ICF membership is different from ICF credentialing. ICF credentialing is something you pursue individually with the ICF and requires you to:
-
Log a minimum of 100 coaching hours (or 500 for higher-level credentials)
-
Submit coaching video session recordings for assessment by an ICF-approved evaluator
-
Pay a fee and pass a 3.5+ hour standardized exam proctored and administered by the ICF
Please note: This training is not currently an ICF-accredited school or Level 1/Level 2 ICF program. Our curriculum is highly somatic, experiential, and movement-based, while ICF accreditation is primarily designed around more traditional talk-based coaching models.
We continue to monitor ICF requirements and teach in alignment with their ethical guidelines and core competencies where applicable.
The next 100 years are going to be about the journey DOWN the chakras, instead of the journey UP.
