Course program

The Somatic Healing Life Coach Certification by Transformation Academy is a self-paced program exploring somatics — the practice of internal awareness that bridges the physical, mental, and emotional realms. It introduces a holistic approach to healing and empowerment, helping students break unhelpful patterns, nurture emotional well-being, and reconnect with the body’s wisdom, then guide others to do the same.

This certification is open to everyone — no prior experience or credentials are required to enroll. It is designed both for individuals seeking personal transformation and for coaches ready to integrate somatic techniques into their existing practice. It suits people who want a straightforward, info-packed learning experience they can complete at their own pace and apply to themselves, their clients, and their community.

The course introduces a comprehensive range of somatic modalities through six sections: an Introduction, Somatic Yoga, Somatic Dance and Movement, Integrated Somatic EMDR Movement and Therapy, How to Coach Each Section of Somatics, and a Culmination. Students learn how to achieve healing through mindful, intentional movement that improves mental health and helps relieve chronic pain by connecting mind and body.

The training covers how to feel safe in the body while exploring thoughts, emotions, and memories, how to replace unhelpful movement patterns, and tools to increase emotional awareness. It examines how to work with the parasympathetic nervous system, how to explore the body-mind connection, and how to survey the internal self and listen to the body’s signals of pain, discomfort, or imbalance — alongside guidance on coaching each somatic modality with others.

The course is led by Tasha Ina Church, an Indigenous Empowerment and Self-Healing Coach with over 24 years of experience, whose indigenous name Iyémote means “Strives for Empowerment.” Based in the Hawaiian Islands, she draws on both tradition and modern evidence-based practices. Transformation Academy, founded by Joeel and Natalie Rivera, has taught over a million students worldwide.

The program is fully online and self-paced, so students start quickly and progress on their own schedule with no required live sessions. It is structured as a done-for-you learning experience built around the six curriculum sections, combining instruction with practical somatic exercises that can be applied to personal practice or integrated into client coaching.

Upon completion, students receive an official digital (PDF) certification, with the option to request a printed certificate and CPD/CEU credits through the CPD Standards Office. The training is CPD accredited, supporting graduates who want to integrate somatic coaching into their practice.

The course combines the topics of nutrition, fitness and behavioural psychology in a skillful way. Lots of theory, supported with practical examples, and all the added resources make it the source of knowledge and skills which will be definitely revisited many times by the participants of the course.

I'm a Wellness Coach with over 30 years experience. I'm now going out on my own bringing my skills and experience to my new clients. That said I wanted to be sure that I had all the skills to be successful in helping my clients realize their goals. My friend recommended this course and I'm so happy I listened to her. I now feel confident that I can take the next steps needed to have a successful coaching business.

The health coach certification was on target and meets industry standards. I am an ACSM Certified Exercise Physiologist and that was important to me. There is so much misinformation out there. I'm very pleased and impressed with the content this course offered.
