Continuing Education Series

A Free Self-Paced Online Course Series for SSEs, CSBs, Bodyworkers, Coaches, and Therapists

While each of these 90-minute recordings are structured as stand-alone classes, the curriculum, from session to session, is interrelated and will build on itself as we progress through all four, so you may find that you get much more if you watch in order. This series includes the following four classes.

  • Finding Pleasure in Sensation: An Introduction to Erotic Embodiment 

  • An Introduction to Attunement: Transforming Theory Into Practice

  • Fostering Belonging in a Fractured World: An Introduction to Trauma Through a Soulcentric Lens

  • Ethics & Power: Cultivating Ethics From the Inside Out
