A year-long mentorship for Soma+IQ Practitioners, facilitation practice, and deep personal work + the first‑ever Level 2 Somatic Practitioner Training.

 

This is not an instructor certification.
This is not a shortcut to teaching Soma+IQ trainings.

This is for Soma+IQ practitioners who want to become safer, more grounded, and more capable of holding themselves and others through real transformative experiences and who are ready for Level 2 practitioner certification.

Applications for the 2026 mentorship + Level 2 are now open to 30 people only.

Short answer:
The 12‑Month Mentorship itself is not a certification and does not make you a SOMA+IQ instructor.

You will NOT be able to:

  • Run or facilitate official SOMA+IQ group trainings
  • Teach SOMA+IQ practitioner trainings
  • Call yourself a “SOMA+IQ Instructor” or “SOMA+IQ Trainer”

What this mentorship does give you:

  • A full year of embodied leadership and nervous system literacy
  • Real‑time apprenticeship inside online and in‑person trainings
  • Direct feedback from Steven and Adam on how you hold space
  • A deeper, more grounded way of showing up that people can feel

How you can use the work:

  • Integrate the principles and tools into your 1:1 coaching, bodywork, and leadership
  • Bring this into your existing practice with appropriate attribution
  • Let your own nervous system and presence be the main transmission

Path to becoming a mentor or instructor (eventually):

  • This mentorship is the starting point, not a guarantee
  • Any future mentor/instructor roles will come from:
    • Your readiness
    • Your alignment with the work and the team
    • How clearly you embody the principles over time

This container is built to slow things down so you don’t rush into teaching before you have the internal capacity to hold it safely. If you’re here for your own transformation and long‑term practice, you’re in the right place.

Baseline requirement
You have completed SOMA+IQ Level 1 (online or in‑person).

    • Show up ready to participate, not just watch
    • Engage in the Slack / community space throughout the year

This mentorship is not for you if:

  • You mainly want to collect more tools or certifications.
  • You’re looking for a quick win rather than long‑term practice.

What this is

The SOMA+IQ 12‑Month Mentorship is our most intimate offering: a year‑long developmental container for Level 1 graduates who feel called to deepen their own work, expand their capacity to hold others, and build the foundations of embodied leadership.

As part of this year, you will also complete the Level 2 Somatic Practitioner Certification Training – our advanced practitioner training that many of you have been asking about. The mentorship gives you a full year of practice and support wrapped around that Level 2 experience.

The mentorship itself is not an instructor or trainer certification. It does not authorize you to lead Soma+IQ practitioner trainings or certify others. It strengthens you as a practitioner and leader.

WHAT’S INCLUDED


1. First‑Ever Level 2 Somatic Practitioner Training (April 30th - 3th, 2026)

For years, many of you have asked, “What comes after Level 1?”
Level 2 is officially here - and this is the first time we’re offering it.

In this 4‑day in‑person training, you’ll deepen into:

  • Somatic‑based coaching skills: 
    For post‑breathwork integration
    Learn how to stay with someone after a big session - helping them orient, name what happened in their body, track nervous system shifts, and connect the experience to real life. You’ll practice asking clean questions, reflecting patterns, and offering simple somatic invitations that support integration instead of chasing another peak moment.

  • Advanced hands‑on techniques:
    Refine how you use touch, positioning, and physical support within your scope of practice to help clients feel safer, more grounded, and more present in their bodies. You’ll explore when and how to offer contact, how to adjust for different nervous system responses, and how to work with the body in ways that respect agency and consent at every step.

  • Theme design and session structuring:
    Go beyond “press play and breathe.” You’ll learn how to design sessions around clear themes, intentions, and nervous system states - choosing pacing, language, and music that create a coherent arc from arrival to integration. This includes mapping the emotional journey of a session and knowing how to adjust in real time based on what’s actually happening in the room.

  • Group somatic breathwork dynamics & mastery:
    Deepen your ability to read and respond to the energy of a whole group: sensing when the room needs grounding vs. activation, how to communicate clearly to many different nervous systems at once, and how to navigate intense moments without losing yourself. You’ll practice managing openings, closures, and transitions so the group feels held from beginning to end.

2. Direct Mentorship with Steven & Adam 12 monthly live calls (90 minutes each)

  • 6 calls with Steven: inner work, nervous system capacity, principles of embodied leadership 
  • 6 calls with Adam: technical facilitation, session craft, voice, pacing, and energetics
  • Last Wednesday of each month, 12pm PST - (Full calendar schedule provided) 

3. Two Level 1 Online Trainings (24 weeks total)

  • First Training - Observer / Witness Role:

    • Tuesday pre‑call + live session, no pod responsibility
    • Learn how we structure sessions and hold the online container from the inside

  • Second Training - Mentor Assistant Role:

    • Assigned to a Mentor Assistant Pod
    • Support Mentors and hold space in breakout rooms under supervision
    • Attend the Instructors pre-alignment call before each Tuesday training call for current students.

Total value for both online trainings: $7,000

4. Two Level 1 In‑Person Trainings (4 days each)

  • Choose from our 2026 training calendar
  • Role determined by prior experience (first‑time student and/or training assistant)
  • Includes pre‑training alignment call + post‑training integration call

Total value: $8,000
Travel and lodging are not included.

5. Year‑End Retreat (October 2026)

  • 2 - 3 days together (tentatively - Sedona)
