Clinical Somatics

Over the past 2 decades, the directors, faculty, and staff have worked hard to fine-tune our program to be the richest in experience and most efficient in training. The directors of the program have used their extensive background both in Somatic Education and education to employ the best teaching practices to offer the most powerful educational experience.

While the material presented is dense and rich, our program is also designed to be pleasant and “gentle”. Much as our clients' nervous systems would not learn from our somatics sessions if we caused them pain or overwhelmed them, our practitioners-in-training will learn best if their training does not saturate them beyond comprehension.

This is where good teaching and program design comes in. Our curriculum has been carefully fine-tuned and coordinated to build solid fundamentals each step of the way - making each new lesson just another building block in a process of smooth mastery of the craft.

Even our daily schedule is designed to allow for maximum comprehension, including sequencing academic and hands-on activities effectively, and allowing adequate lunch breaks and integration periods.
