Incredible communication skills learned and my favorite part ended up being able to be in break out rooms and work with my peers ! I love the arc Breathwork pattern ..unlike any other course/style I looked into before picking Soma!

The biggest impact is learning how powerful the breath is to help support us and our nervous systems. I appreciated those who led the classes and the support was excellent. I also appreciated how much others participated and supported also. I am delayed in the training but hope to catch up with the final weeks. Thank you for all your training and support! I will recommend this to interested friends.

I stumbled upon Soma+IQ breathwork during a hard time in my life. I had a lot going on outside of class, but every week, I would show up to class and leave feeling so grounded and present. I realized how much I've been suppressing my emotions my whole life, and not feeling confident expressing myself. After completing the training, I'm excited to help others live their fullest expression. I'm grateful for the incredible mentors and fellow students in my cohort. I was surprised over and over again by how much of a real and true connection can be made through zoom.

The biggest realization for me is that no one in the world makes me feel the way I feel; it's all within me, and I am the one causing it, regardless of the feeling or emotion, whether it's sad or happy. Meta exercise. They are incredible, and I learned so much from them about myself and my being. By taking this training, you will learn to connect with yourself, be present, and experience life on a whole new level. This was a life-changing experience for sure. I highly recommend.

Participating in the Somatic Breathwork Practitioner Training with Soma+IQ has been one of the most transformative experiences of my life. It has deepened my connection to myself, expanded my capacity for presence, and taught me how to hold space for others with authenticity and compassion. The teachings, practices, and community have profoundly reshaped my understanding of healing and embodiment. I'm moving forward not only with new skills, but with a renewed sense of purpose and alignment in my life!! With immense gratitude,

I did not expect to go this deep in understanding my nervous system and realizing how much I’ve been holding in my body. I’ve discovered that this work is the quickest and most powerful way to reset myself and transmute stress, tension, or any negative emotions. In the past, I used to lean on substances to cope, but now I can’t believe how much more I’ve learned about regulating myself through breath and awareness. Because this is a trauma-informed training, it’s also helped me understand my own patterns and past experiences in a compassionate way, so I can hold space for others more safely. This journey has transformed me — not just through daily breathwork practice, but through learning to co-regulate with others and experiencing the profound impact that connection has on the nervous system. I’m deeply grateful and excited to bring this medicine into the world. I really loved connecting with the community during the breakout rooms. It felt so heartwarming to collaborate, share stories, and learn from other practitioners. Hearing different perspectives and approaches gave me inspiration for how I want to offer this work in my own way. I also deeply appreciated the lectures — the wisdom and presence of the teachers were truly inspiring. Even if you don’t plan to become a facilitator, this training is incredibly valuable for your own healing and growth. It teaches you how to down-regulate your nervous system and hold space for yourself and others with more compassion and understanding. It’s one of the greatest tools you can carry for your personal and spiritual evolution — learning how the breath can shift your mood, clear heaviness, and create space for clarity, love, and authenticity. This training has truly changed my life. Over the last 12 weeks, I’ve felt lighter, more grounded, and more in tune with myself. I don’t let little things affect me the same way anymore, because I now trust my breath as a tool to release and reset. I’m deeply thankful for this experience and for the community of practitioners I get to grow and collaborate with. It’s been such a high-vibe, heart-opening journey.

-The range section was incredible—it really showed me where I’m still learning and where I need more grace with myself. - Also learning how to truly hold space for others. -This experience taught me how to calm my own nervous system quickly and naturally, allowing me to show up more fully—not only for myself, but for those around me. It makes me feel deeply aligned with my soul path. Thank you all, so much, from the heart. ❤️

I thought I was pretty comfortable with all ranges of emotions .... I was very surprised that my range for joy was actually very small in comparison to the others. The way Adrianna made me reframe my thoughts about sensuality, love, and joy has made the most intense change that never knew I needed. I am forever grateful. 2 weeks past in person training and I feel like I have a completely new baseline in life. 🥰 If you are a human you need this training.

This training was truly transformational. I loved every moment of it. The biggest realization I had was how powerful the breath can be in shifting your emotional state and reconnecting with your body. My favorite part was the sense of connection — not just to others in the group, but also to a deeper part of myself. I think anyone feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or even just curious about personal growth would gain so much from this training. It’s a beautiful journey of healing and self-awareness.

I think that SBW would benefit everyone. It is life! It is so gentle and loving, and what most people nowadays need, to be seen and felt. I loved the community and the weekly practicing of skills as we learned. I adored the instructors, who always created a safe space to grow and try new things. I am a Craniosacral therapist, and I am so excited with how well this modality supports this and the strong connection between the too. I am so excited to add SBW to my practice!!!

Upon joining this training, I feel more confident, spacious, and excited to witness others in their processes. I realized the power of presence, space, and safety. Breath is the bridge into connection with ourselves and others. My favorite part about the training was the visceral exercises that spoke to the power of attunement. This training goes beyond breathwork, through cultivating a beautiful communal space to simply be, heal, and witness others in their journey. Thank you Mentors, you special souls hold a space within me.

I did the online 12-week course. It was amazing. Yes, 12 weeks seems like a long time but it is worth it to allow time to process, practice, and integrate. The mentors are all great, they are patient, they are funny and they are human!! For me, the course provided a sense of validation and boosted my confidence to be able to go out into the world and help others untangle the mind one string at a time.

The integrated one on one sessions were really beautiful because they were uncomfortable but filled with so much growth at the same time. I love that we learned so much about attuning to one another. Learning to have those vulnerable conversations with someone you just met is so transformative and absolutely brought me out of the comfortable shadow I was living in. Combining the mental work with the body work is the exact recipe for healing. This class offered way more than just breath it offered genuine love and connection! This work changed my life and it’s an honor to facilitate it for others!

I attended the virtual training. More than anything else, this course taught me about myself and the ways in which I interact with the world. It has helped me transform my relationships and my mental health in ways that many other modalities Ive tried could not. I am eternally grateful to have found this work. Through partner practices and breathwork sessions in class Ive been been able to realize (and clear out) so many mental blocks that have kept me feeling stuck. Ive been able to sit with myself. Ive been able to make conscious choices for myself with clarity, which is something I haven't been able to do in many many years. Thank you for your time and energy. You guys have helped me get my superpowers back.

I thoroughly enjoyed the somatic related exercises before jumping into the curriculum. It set the container for holding space and human-to-human connection. I felt seen in a way I never have. The training itself was so thorough and in-depth. I can't speak highly enough of the program and mentors. I felt continually more inspired as the training progressed!

I attended online training. Joining the training helped me to understand the flow and piece together the full session. Overall, Soma +IQ has helped me shift deeper inward and release what no longer serves me or that I need to hold onto in my body and mind. My favorite part of the training was the practice sessions and going through daily exercises at the beginning of each call. For those who are interested in clearing anxiety, fear, and stress out of their bodies and returning to the person you truly are, I highly recommend Soma +IQ.

The instructors are so caring and knowledgeable and being a part of a community makes all the difference in really absorbing the material.

My largest realization in joining the training. I realized how much we as humans need this work. How to stay connected in this technology driven world. How to connect to my authentic self and to be able to navigate from this place. How to help others connect to themself too! The community within Soma+IQ and the leaders are the most supportive, genuine people I’ve ever spent time with. It was refreshing to my soul. If you’re ready to take the journey inward and want to make an impact in the world then this training is for you!

This work allows every person to return home to themselves, find greater clarity, hope, and self-acceptance. The somatic breathwork practitioner training gifts each person going through the certification program a personal mirror with which they are able to heal themselves in a space that is non-judgmental, empowering, and educational. As a byproduct, each certified practitioner is then able to create a space for their clients to hold up their own mirror to process anything that may want to move through them so they too can walk their path to living their fullest potential!

I'm so grateful for that fateful day I came across Soma+IQ's free workshop online- it put me on a path to discovering who I am at my core and who I want to become. Steven did such a beautiful job facilitating that first breathwork session that for the longest time, I couldn't even imagine being able to do it myself. But a few months ago, when the chance to enroll in this program arose again, something in me said, "Jen, it's time. You can do this. You NEED to do this." And so I did. Practically speaking, the training was delivered flawlessly. The mentors did an excellent job at supporting us in every way through the 12 weeks. The educational materials are of high quality, and the weekly calls were structured effectively, helping us build our skill set from the bottom up. I loved that we had opportunities to get out of our comfort zone and practice with each other. I know I still have a lot of learning ahead of me, but I feel very confident moving forward. I'm excited to share the power of somatic breathwork with my clients and the local community. But the most impactful part of this experience isn't the transformation of my skills. It's the transformation that took place - and continues to take place- inside of me. I'm more confident in myself, my worth, and my voice than ever before, after dealing with impostor syndrome and anxiety that's held me back for as long as I can remember. This deepened self-confidence and self-acceptance have had a positive impact on my relationships, my ability to coach and hold space for others, and my overall happiness and well-being.

I am very grateful for this 12-week journey! Throughout the training, I experienced a rollercoaster of emotions, as well as expressions - I laughed, I cried - I was healing. Today, I feel more connected to my body than ever before. The weekly training calls with the community and mentors were deeply inspiring, surrounded by amazing people and beautiful souls. This experience has been life-changing, and I recommend it to anyone who wants to deepen their connection with their body, release emotions they may not even be aware of, and cultivate more peace into their life by using the most powerful tool we all have - the breath. Beyond personal transformation, this training provides a profound understanding of how the human body works and how to support it for greater well-being. Knowledge is power, and with this knowledge we gain the ability to help others - a beautiful gift to share with the world!

Wow, this training journey has been incredible from beginning to end. I initially hoped to feel more relaxed in my body and mind, but the transformations I’ve experienced are beyond words. I have suffered from migraines for the past five years, and within just three months, my symptoms have significantly improved—I now experience only about 10% of what I used to. I absolutely loved our mentors and the community. The mentors are full of knowledge and wisdom, yet they remain approachable, humble, and deeply compassionate. They are truly beautiful souls who guided us with care and attention, holding our hands every step of the way. If you’re looking to go deeper, truly understand yourself, and heal on a profound level, this course is an absolute must.

The largest impact I experienced and realized in this training was the integration of my mind body and spirit connection. After being a breath worker for over 36 years trained by Sondra Ray and Lenard Orr the mother and father of breathwork my intuition skills were met by my intellectual skills with Soma+IQ in an integrative union in my soul. My favorite part during the training was all of it lol. I think everyone can experience growth and integration with this technique.

The biggest realization I’ve had through this work is how to not get stuck in shutdown. I’ve learned to notice my triggers, connect to my body, and let my body lead—allowing stuck tension to naturally move through. Since then, I’ve been flowing through emotions more freely—not feeling numb, but also not drowning in them. I’m navigating my nervous system with much more awareness and feel more regulated overall.

The largest impact was stepping into the breathwork techniques and having the permission to make it my own, it has been incredible empowering! It also reinforced the true power of breath and presence. My favorite part of the training has been the zoom meetings. Witnessing and connecting with the instructors and students has been a highlight! I have made friendships here that I am sure I will carry on for many years. Everyone can benefit from this training! whether deepening one's relationship to their body or stepping fully into becoming a breathwork practitioner, it is truly wonderful and life changing!

Joining this training was a transformative experience that reshaped my understanding of myself and my connection to others. The biggest realization I had was the profound impact of breath, not as a biological function, but as a tool for healing, acceptance, and growth. Learning to breathe with intention taught me how to embrace my emotions, release past burdens, and cultivate a sense of inner peace. It was a reminder that healing begins from within, and that true acceptance of oneself opens the door to a more compassionate and fulfilling life. My favorite part of the training was the deep connection I felt with myself, but also with the group of like-minded individuals who shared the same journey. The space was one of openness and trust, where every participant was encouraged to be vulnerable and authentic. There was an unspoken understanding that we were all there to heal, to grow, and to support one another. This sense of collective energy was genuinely uplifting, reminding me of the incredible power of human connection! For anyone considering taking this training, I can confidently say that it will change your life! Whether you are struggling with self-acceptance, seeking emotional healing, or simply looking for a deeper sense of peace, this training offers tools and insights that can be applied to every aspect of everyday life. It teaches the importance of being present, of embracing oneself fully, and of extending that same kindness to others. It is a journey of self-discovery that equips you not just to heal yourself, but also to become a source of support and inspiration for those around you.

I am delighted to offer my wholehearted recommendation for the Somatic Breathing Course. This program has been nothing short of transformative for me, both personally and professionally. The expertise and dedication of the instructional team is exceptional. Their profound knowledge of somatic breathing techniques is matched only by their ability to communicate complex concepts with clarity and compassion. The faculty creates a safe, supportive environment that encourages deep exploration and personal growth. The curriculum itself is brilliantly structured, offering a perfect balance between theoretical understanding and practical application. Each session built thoughtfully upon the previous one, creating a comprehensive journey through the power of breath work. The techniques I've learned have become invaluable tools in my daily life and in my work with clients. What truly sets this program apart, however, is the remarkable community it fosters. The connections formed with fellow participants have provided ongoing support and inspiration long after the formal coursework ended. This community aspect amplifies the learning experience exponentially. Throughout this course, I embarked on a profound personal journey that challenged me to explore new dimensions of self-awareness. The process was sometimes challenging but always rewarding, and I emerged with greater presence, resilience, and understanding. I cannot recommend the Somatic Breathing Course highly enough. The team, the content, and the community combine to create an exceptional learning experience that continues to influence my life in meaningful ways. For anyone seeking to deepen their understanding of breathwork and its transformative potential, this program is an absolute must.

Ive gained so much knowledge and confidence within myself to continue to learn new modalities and techniques. This training definitely pushed me outside my comfort zone.

I joined to take this back to where I worked , and then left the job, so I was wondering NOW WHAT , I struggled in the Oct class , got something worked out and started the Jan class with a differnent mind set , I knew I had some stuff to move through me and was having a hard time figuring out how to do it , I stuck with it and moved mountians in the last 12 plus weeks ... My favorite part was the community and the way we held space for each other. There’s something incredibly sacred about breathing and releasing in a room full of people who are doing the same. The safety, vulnerability, and deep connection I felt with others—many of whom I had just met—was beautiful and transformative. I also loved how each session felt like a journey, and every breath brought a new insight or layer of release.Anyone carrying stress, trauma, or emotional heaviness could benefit deeply from this training. It’s not just about learning to facilitate breathwork—though you do learn that—it’s about learning to trust your body, to feel again, and to reclaim parts of yourself you may have disconnected from. Whether you're a healer, coach, or someone simply seeking personal growth, this training offers powerful tools to regulate your nervous system, access deeper emotional truths, and show up more fully in your life and relationships. and the Mentors were amazing

This training has far exceeded my expectations. The 12 weeks online gave me the understanding of breathwork and the nervous system so that I could feel in command of the practice. The in-person training let me step into the roll of breathwork practitioner. The combined training brought me into a fuller sense of alignment with who I am...as a person and as a practitioner. It's truly been a transformational experience!

I loved the material itself, and how profound the tools are to share with others. i thought that the training was fully equipped with how to confidently become a practitioner. One thing that I would have liked is a discussion on pricing and ways to set up sessions, like platforms utilized, and or, successful ways to get people into your classes, etc. But, other than that, it was fantastic and I'm a changed person because of it.

The largest impact was the connections I made with other people and allowing myself to be held by the group. The structure of the sessions were powerful and well organized. I am very impressed with the thought put into the structure and being told to trust the process definitely helps. This is an amazing and powerful workshop. My favorite part of the workshop was how hands on it was. It wasn’t just about theory, but also about practice. It kept the days fun and they went by fast. The training would be beneficial for anyone out there. It’s not always easy to work outside of your comfort zone, but my personal feeling is that everyone would benefit from this training. It helps teach you how to become more relational in a positive way.

This training was more insignificant and personally fulfilling then I ever could have dreamed it to be. Not only did I learned incredibly vital skills to help others but I reached new levels of my self to see how much impact I can give just from the unraveling of my own awareness.

I can honestly say that I feel “more human” after this experience. My capacity to feel and express emotions has gone up 10x. Breaking through my self-imposed numbness, placed upon myself for the sake of maintaining “composure”, feels like a true blessing- a gift that I gave myself simply by committing to my breath and the process. I’ve been holding on so tight through life; this experience simply let me be held in love and grace. My favorite part of this experience was being surrounded by such high vibrational energy for such an extended amount of time. While everyone had a unique intention for themselves at the training, the fact that we all had intention to be *more*, for ourselves and the world at-large was truly uplifting. Anyone at all could benefit from this training, whether they intend to teach somatic breath work or not. Simply understanding the mechanics of how and why the process works opens up a world of opportunities for self-inquiry and exploration. Simply put, this was time well invested in the process of becoming more human and more connected with the divine spark of my inner essence.

I have always been jealous of people who had access to the feeling of certainty and groundedness, and of those who an ability to use their voice and take up space. I didn’t know what this experience had in store for me. I had never even heard of Somatic breath work before this. But the release that I’ve had here, the community that’s been formed and the connection that’s been felt has really altered me. For the first time in my life, I have really connected with the power that’s inside of me, and I’ve gotten to meet other people who share this felt sense of oneness between us all. For so much of my life, I felt so lonely because I could only ever find glimpses of God in small places, but God was in the room with all of us this weekend, and He was felt through the arms of each other. This weekend has given me so much hope for humanity and it’s also given me a sense of personal power in these really difficult times where it’s so easy to feel powerless. But I know through teaching this work as a practitioner, I will be able to share a glimpse of the hope and joy and love and connection that I felt with this weekend with my community. And I hope that glimpse is a spark that catches across the world.

Feb 8, 2025

Day one, was like an indescribable dance of emotion to a melody that is unique to each individual. The exercises we did Where things I have never done Before. It’s nearly indescribable because it is introspection prompted within a group setting or paired up with a stranger. Day, one was my first professional breath work session. And in the group, it was beautiful to be able to be around others on their journey while feeling supported in my own. In the session, my body involuntarily moved in ways I was unsure of what to do with and I learned in that moment to just be there and let it happen and not control but just be. And that doesn’t sound like much maybe while you’re reading it but it’s fucking huge for me in the first half my body convulsed and was moving a lot and in the second half when we were calming ourselves through the breath, all it took was for one of the teachers to come by. Tell me it was OK to let it go and my eyes turned into pools And pools turned into waterfalls, and my ears turned into a little warm Jacuzzi full of tears… Tears of gratitude for the moment with that person and tears of release because I didn’t realize I was holding so hard ! Everyone experience everything we got to go through in that first day… Humans need to feel their feelings! There’s not a person on the planet who shouldn’t get this full spectrum training of introspecting, outward expressions and the deep heaviness that life can be in a big beautiful healthy way! There were moments that were so uncomfortable for so many of us and especially for myself. Either to overly express or just act out an emotion that wasn’t necessarily familiar… And day one doing this in front of others was an extremely large challenge because it’s easier to stay and not looked at. And Although that feeling remained that I didn’t Really want to be seen in the moments you just do it! You do it for yourself. You do it to break through those layers that are necessary to shed to become the best version of self… Or at least this stands for me I left there with a new sense of self and calmness and community. And I realized how safe it can be to have emotions around perfect strangers when I feel like I’m “not allowed to” (emote) around people that tell me they love me and that I love in life. Day one was 1 million waves 1 million different ways both positive and negative emotionally that came in like a tsunami and washed away so much of the negative patterning (or brought it up to be realized) and unworthiness and unraveled 1 million little things inside… And after the wave moved along, it formed such a secure landing. And that new solid ground aka security, I will be able to take away with me. I realize how hard it is for me personally to be held by others. To trust in others to actually have my back. But in life, I live a story of just holding space for others and pushing my needs underneath theirs because I want them to love me. Or I want them to choose me in the way that I choose them. My biggest Takeaway is that I got to feel that beautiful Love… From perfect strangers!

My largest realization- is that we are not here to fix anyone, but to simply hold space for them. My favorite part about the training (how can I pick just one???) was the group tasks and the instant feedback. Which brought some awareness to things that I can improve upon personally. Everybody would benefit from this training, whether you are wanting to provide this service or simple become a deeper and more capable person of feeling. There are aspects to this training, and I have learned and are excited to bring back into my personal life and how I operate with my family.

The largest impact for me was how open I was during the exercises. I am usually open, but I allowed myself to go to the edge. My favorite part about the training is all that I am learning. The trainers are so knowledgeable that it is so easy to learn from them. The exercises that they are having us do open a whole new perceptive on practices that I am already doing. I believe everyone could benefit from this training in one way or another. The one on ones in person face to face are magical and intimate.

For me, as a clinician, the largest impact has been truly holding space for people. I always thought I was holding space until "holding space" in SomatIQ Breathwork. My family and friends are also embracing the idea of the breath deeper than before. I am showing up differently for others, no FIXING !! My favorite part of the training was community sessions, the mentors, and the ability to truly REMEMBER who I am and why I chose to be a therapist. We collectively need to embody this modality, and we need practitioners. My community is dire need of some healing :)

This training impacted the way I look at life differently. I really enjoyed the online training pairing with another partner and getting feedback. The benefit of this training is to help someone deal with stress instead of taking drugs to escape from the problem.

Steven talks about to not wait until you're ready to do this work because you will never "be ready" and my biggest take away is just accepting where I am at in my journey to healing. I do believe this work is helping me become my most authentic true self(I'm remembering) and with that my work will improve with more clearing, regulation and repatterining. This work is truly life changing and what a gift to give and receive it.

Online training. Really appreciated the energy and camaraderie as well as the instruction. Mentors did a great job of holding space for questions and responding comprehensively. The hands on practice sessions in breakout rooms were very empowering. I think some of them (especially like the intro / wrap up that were longish) could have allowed a little more time to account for establishing rapport with the partner and then having enough space for both participants to complete the practice. They both ended up being cut a little short.

Somatic Breathwork has been the key to what I have been searching for in life. Not only has this made major benefits to my personal life, but also to those around me and creating better connection to life. I could sit here and praise this modality all day. Give it a try and watch the growth before your eyes. Wonderful team. Beautiful souls. Somatic Family is HOME <3

I first took the online training in March. It was such a great experience. Everything was wonderful about it, but it was suggested to me to do the in person training. I cannot even describe what an exceptional experience the past four days have been. The quality of teaching was absolutely amazing. This just took my level of being a Breathwork practitioner to a different height. The trauma that I released with my partner Tyler on the last day was unbelievable. I learned so much but most of all I learned so much about myself. It was a true honor to spend four days with the most amazing group of people! The people I met are lifelong friends! People from Scotland to Bulgaria to Canada! I’m truly blessed! I am forever grateful.

I have invested thousands of dollars in various programs and trainings in the past, but Soma+IQ has far exceeded anything I’ve ever experienced. I now feel more prepared than I ever thought possible to lead Somatic Breathwork sessions, and the mentorship provided is worth so much more than the cost. This journey has given me so much beyond just a certification; I’ve formed lifelong friendships, experienced deeper healing than I have in the past five years, and I feel renewed and regulated. I am incredibly grateful to Jaggers, Fisher, Adriana, and the entire Soma+IQ team for their caring and dedicated approach to teaching. I’m honored to share this work with the world, and my newfound ability to regulate my nervous system has profoundly benefited both me and my family. I feel forever changed because of Soma+IQ. If you’re considering joining as a practitioner, I wholeheartedly encourage you to take the leap! This experience is something everyone should have, whether or not they want to facilitate sessions. The healing and insights into communication and regulation are invaluable. This has been the most impactful decision I’ve ever made for myself. Thank you, thank you, thank you, Soma+IQ and team! ❤️

I can honestly say this training was a kickstart to a direction of healing in this journey we call life. I became somatically aware of issues, traumas, and blocks that have knowingly plagued me for a long time. Through the knowledge of the mentors and my own somatic awareness I have made some shifts that not only I see but also my family sees. My levels of anxiety have decreased and I am more aware of what can or has triggered them. - Soma+IQ Practitioner

I found SomatiQ breathwork on instagram when I was searching for somatic modalities. No word of a lie, from that moment, watching the first reel, I was hooked. I studied all the videos on youtube, signed up for the free training to learn the daily breathwork, watched the 3 day workshop online and also attended the week long workshop held just before the course started, so I knew going into this, that it was going to be amazing. IT SURPASSED MY EXPECTATIONS GREATLY. The material and curriculum was everything I wanted and more but for me the best part was the team and the community. SBW have your back every single step of the way, even when you have completed the course. The founders, mentors and backstage team are the most genuine, authentic and compassionate people I had the pleasure of meeting. To have them all in one space was even more of a highlight and I am truly grateful to each of them for all they do. In terms of the modality, well all I can say is it has changed my life in more ways than one. I wasn't ever the most confident when it comes to groups and I would rather shy away than be in the spotlight. I would rather be happy all the time and work on maintaining my inner peace rather than expressing how I was actually feeling. I never truly had boundaries and was very much a people pleaser and wanted everyone to like me.......all that has changed and its down to this modality. It has taught me emotions are things to be felt and not something we need to fear, that none of them are good or bad and when we numb one we numb them all. I allow myself to feel fully now, even when it is uncomfortable and allow it too move through me instead of shoving it back down for it to reappear at a different time. I am still working on my boundaries and people pleasing tendencies however this modality is helping me to stay open, present and aware. It is helping me to shift things I have spent years trying to shift. I cant wait to share this and continue to be involved in the SomatiQ Community because it genuinely feels like I have come back home to place where I feel understood, heard and seen. SomatiQ Team thank you, thank you for everything you do and all the hard work that each of you put in. You are changing lives, you are creating a powerful movement which I know will continue to grow and I feel privileged to be able to share this, help change lives and allow people to take back their sovereignty by taking responsibility for their own nervous system. I could keep going on and on, there are honestly so many reasons people need this in their lives so if you are intrigued and its on your heart, all I can say is just do it. It doesn't matter if you are doing it for you, your family or to become a practitioner, you will 100% not regret your decision. THANK YOUUUUUUU:D

I have learned that the breath is such a tool to connect my mind and body and that I can control the state of my nervous system through breathing. This has been transformative for me as I have sought out somatic work to release trapped trauma and stress in my body. I highly recommend this program. I appreciated the space and grace each of the trainers gave to us to ask questions and center and ground ourselves. I will recommend your program to anyone interested. It is so thorough!!! I am excited to start my practicum and put into use all I have learned. Thank you so much!

I loved the online 12week course but I loved the in-person immersive training even more. I was surprised at how easy it was to stay focused and keep my attention on the training for four full days. It was interesting, easy to digest and internalize. It was laid out well, each module built upon the next nicely. It was so helpful to learn a skill, then practice it right away. You can tell Jaggers, Adriana, Fish, and Emily love what they do and are truly living their purpose of making the world a better place through their teachings and their students. Sending so much love and gratitude!

I've been in therapy for 8 years and I've been a practising therapist for 6 years and I managed to access and release trauma that I've never been able to before. The breath work training was incredibly clear and well delivered. I feel so well equipped and supported to begin this work.

I am beyond grateful for the opportunity to take a deeper dive into somatic breathwork. This training was truly life-changing—an experience that I believe everyone should have. Through learning this modality, parts of me have come home, others have reawakened, and I left the training feeling fully realized, open, and excited. Out of all the trainings I’ve invested in, this one stands out as the most precise and impactful. Every aspect was thoughtfully crafted, clearly explained, and deeply experienced. Unlike other programs where I left feeling overwhelmed and on my own, this one provided me with all the tools and confidence to go out into the world and begin sharing this powerful work with others. What’s more, I discovered a beautiful, supportive community of practitioners—a space where I can lean in and receive support when needed. Thank you, thank you, thank you for Fish, Jaggers, and Adriana for this transformative experience!

The somatic training experience is life changing! The impact and the amount of support and love in a room full of strangers is astounding. This experience has brought so much awareness into myself and the world around me and has allowed me to have a greater understanding of how our emotions work in the body. Everyone can benefit from this work and I can’t wait to see what’s to come of it!

To me it was the part that was missing on my life to make me feel that I can become a better version of myself. I feel that by practicing these modality I will be able to impact a lot of people and allow them to heal by themselves. My favorite part on the training was that it was very dynamic and that we were taken out of the comfort zone the whole time so we can actually grow as much as possible in those four days. I think if somebody else has the calling of healing through this type of trainings, they will find so much benefit of going through this summer IQ training that will change their life forever and the people that they get to work on.

This training has far exceeded my expectations, primarily due to the quality of the curriculum and your methods of delivery and instruction. Beyond those components, the synergy among and between you all as trainers is a rare thing for participants to witness and experience firsthand. The material is rigorous and immersive, yet the way it was delivered, I was able to easily process it. My confidence level went from a two on Day 1 to an eight-plus on Day 4. Thank you for making this professional journey very personal.

I recently completed a 4 day-intensive training with SOMA IQ, and I’m beyond impressed. The organization and preparation were outstanding, and the teaching is on a whole new level. There's a beautiful ripple effect from the breathwork they teach that truly impacts the world. I've taken a week-long intensive in other breathwork modalities, including Holotropic breathwork, but nothing compares to SOMA IQ. Having spent 18 years clearing somatic trauma from childhood, I can confidently say that SOMA IQ has provided a crucial missing piece in my healing journey. I feel like I have finally discovered the ideal breathwork that perfectly aligns with my work. They are truly preparing people to become confident, skilled breathwork practitioners. From now on, I’ll be a walking advertisement for them—I want everyone to experience the transformative power of what SOMA IQ offers."

Taking the in person class along with the online training has brought a fuller understanding of the concepts and “hands on” work that my brain needs to really comprehend the big picture of all that we are doing. The team is incredibly helpful and have made my experience so positive. I know I will be able to help others with the same grace & professionalism I have been shown and felt here. If you are looking for excellent teachers leading with their hearts, you will find it here♥️

The immersive experience is the best pathway to not only learn the material, but to experience the power of breath, community, and learning. To FEEL everyone's presence and their growth and learning in the space gave way to be more prepared to facilitate this in the real world and help build confidence in real time. The facilitators were gracious, knowledgable, and most importantly FUN! 10/10 recommend.

Joining the Somatic Breathwork Practitioner Training had a profound impact on me as a trauma therapist, revealing how deeply interconnected our breath is with our mental and emotional well-being. This training transformed my therapeutic approach, allowing me to integrate breathwork into my practice for a more holistic healing experience. I found this bottom-up approach to healing—starting with the body —exceptionally effective in helping my clients truly heal from their trauma. My clients now feel more grounded, experience less anxiety, and have greater emotional resilience. Initially, I was hesitant to take the training online, but it turned out to be wonderful. The course was easy to follow, and the sense of community it created is something I will forever be grateful for. The mentors were exceptional, and the entire Somatic team was incredibly supportive throughout the process. Anyone looking to deepen their understanding of the mind-body connection would benefit immensely from this training. The skills and knowledge gained are invaluable for offering a comprehensive approach to healing and helping yourself and clients achieve profound, lasting change.

That it took a while for me to uncover the trauma I was holding onto and hadn't thought about in decades. It was not an easy process. But our body is very intuitive to what it needs and our logical brain often times wants to take over. I feel more grounded and rooted just as a result of the consistent daily breath work that do as a result of taking this program. I am finally into my body after years of therapy. The teachers are all a wealth of information and I like the different perspectives to be able to relate to. I think anyone could benefit just from greater awareness of themselves.

It was such a transformative experience for me to feel reconnected with the beautiful nature of being a joyful human BEING, and the freedom to express and flow in my feminine energy. The SAFE container this training created made it very empowering for everyone in the training to feel permitted to express various emotions somatically and freely, using breath to clear out whatever it needed to be out, and then to gain clarity and download those messages from the intelligence of the body. What I liked the most about this training is how intentional meta skills can empower us to hold space for others to be their empathetic witnesses for healing to take place within them. This training not only benefits our own personal development but also teaches us to be better listeners and more attuned to others, allowing us to unlock the potential to have better relationships with our family, friends, co-workers, bosses, employees, and even strangers because emotion is the universal relation language across all humanity.

The biggest impact is learning how powerful the breath is to help support us and our nervous systems. I appreciated those who led the classes and the support was excellent. I also appreciated how much others participated and supported also. I am delayed in the training but hope to catch up with the final weeks. Thank you for all your training and support! I will recommend this to interested friends.

I stumbled upon Soma+IQ breathwork during a hard time in my life. I had a lot going on outside of class, but every week, I would show up to class and leave feeling so grounded and present. I realized how much I've been suppressing my emotions my whole life, and not feeling confident expressing myself. After completing the training, I'm excited to help others live their fullest expression. I'm grateful for the incredible mentors and fellow students in my cohort. I was surprised over and over again by how much of a real and true connection can be made through zoom.

The biggest realization for me is that no one in the world makes me feel the way I feel; it's all within me, and I am the one causing it, regardless of the feeling or emotion, whether it's sad or happy. Meta exercise. They are incredible, and I learned so much from them about myself and my being. By taking this training, you will learn to connect with yourself, be present, and experience life on a whole new level. This was a life-changing experience for sure. I highly recommend.

Participating in the Somatic Breathwork Practitioner Training with Soma+IQ has been one of the most transformative experiences of my life. It has deepened my connection to myself, expanded my capacity for presence, and taught me how to hold space for others with authenticity and compassion. The teachings, practices, and community have profoundly reshaped my understanding of healing and embodiment. I'm moving forward not only with new skills, but with a renewed sense of purpose and alignment in my life!! With immense gratitude,

I did not expect to go this deep in understanding my nervous system and realizing how much I’ve been holding in my body. I’ve discovered that this work is the quickest and most powerful way to reset myself and transmute stress, tension, or any negative emotions. In the past, I used to lean on substances to cope, but now I can’t believe how much more I’ve learned about regulating myself through breath and awareness. Because this is a trauma-informed training, it’s also helped me understand my own patterns and past experiences in a compassionate way, so I can hold space for others more safely. This journey has transformed me — not just through daily breathwork practice, but through learning to co-regulate with others and experiencing the profound impact that connection has on the nervous system. I’m deeply grateful and excited to bring this medicine into the world. I really loved connecting with the community during the breakout rooms. It felt so heartwarming to collaborate, share stories, and learn from other practitioners. Hearing different perspectives and approaches gave me inspiration for how I want to offer this work in my own way. I also deeply appreciated the lectures — the wisdom and presence of the teachers were truly inspiring. Even if you don’t plan to become a facilitator, this training is incredibly valuable for your own healing and growth. It teaches you how to down-regulate your nervous system and hold space for yourself and others with more compassion and understanding. It’s one of the greatest tools you can carry for your personal and spiritual evolution — learning how the breath can shift your mood, clear heaviness, and create space for clarity, love, and authenticity. This training has truly changed my life. Over the last 12 weeks, I’ve felt lighter, more grounded, and more in tune with myself. I don’t let little things affect me the same way anymore, because I now trust my breath as a tool to release and reset. I’m deeply thankful for this experience and for the community of practitioners I get to grow and collaborate with. It’s been such a high-vibe, heart-opening journey.

-The range section was incredible—it really showed me where I’m still learning and where I need more grace with myself. - Also learning how to truly hold space for others. -This experience taught me how to calm my own nervous system quickly and naturally, allowing me to show up more fully—not only for myself, but for those around me. It makes me feel deeply aligned with my soul path. Thank you all, so much, from the heart. ❤️

I thought I was pretty comfortable with all ranges of emotions .... I was very surprised that my range for joy was actually very small in comparison to the others. The way Adrianna made me reframe my thoughts about sensuality, love, and joy has made the most intense change that never knew I needed. I am forever grateful. 2 weeks past in person training and I feel like I have a completely new baseline in life. 🥰 If you are a human you need this training.
