  • The evolution of the U.K. training has been significant, with lots of new content and changes added recently, so if you completed a while back you’ll genuinely get a whole load of new learning to enhance your own understanding and practice. As a second-year student, supporting participants, you’ll improve your coaching skills and facilitation skills, and gain so much from working with this year's participants, you’ll learn just as much from them as they will from you - this is all about shared wisdom and experience. And of course, there are the intensives. Being involved in a different capacity, being part of the team, is wonderful. Hard work and deeply enriching, on many levels. The opportunity to coach, the learning that offers, is immensely valuable to my own practice. A rich, deep experience.

  • CSSE was invaluable for me. We cover so much at such a pace in CSB that it was a treat to go back and study the material again - it deepened my learning and built my confidence. It was great to experience the course from a team perspective. I learnt so much from being back stage, holding space and supporting the students. CSSE was an essential part of my growth as a coach and facilitator.

    Sarah Rose Bright

  • I highly recommend CSSE 2nd year - it was the best thing I did! After I completed the CSSE track my work blossomed. Coaching students through the training really deepens how one teaches the somatic enquiries and I felt confident in my ability to convey the information in a coaching format. There are regular meetings for CSSE’s where you talk about your specific learning needs. It’s a great team and we would LOVE to have you on board. Join us!
