What Makes Us Distinct
Shaped by interdisciplinary wisdom.
In fact, it’s the very basis of the Integral Coaching approach. Our curriculum and methodology draw from a deep and evolving wellspring of the latest scientific inquiry and wisdom traditions from across the globe.
Find practical and powerful ways of expanding your client’s capacity and skillfulness, rooted in trauma-informed knowledge from neuroscience, polyvagal theory, somatic movement, process work, attachment theory, established wisdom traditions and many more. Learn More.
The result? You become a coach with unusual depth, able to meet each client exactly where they are.
The investment
In chaotic times, commitment creates clarity.
When everything feels urgent and scattered, dedicating yourself to something meaningful provides unexpected relief. Priorities clarify. The noise quiets.
Becoming an Integral Coach requires investment of time and attention.
This isn’t just tuition—it’s permission to stop spreading yourself thin. To develop depth while others chase trends. To join a community while others feel isolated. To apprentice with masters while others learn from videos.
The commitment itself becomes part of the transformation. By choosing depth over speed, community over isolation, mastery over quick fixes—you become the coach our fragmented world desperately needs.
Payment plans available.
The question isn’t the cost, but the calling.
Learn in community
Develop your understanding with support along the way.
Our cohort-based approach is unlike any other. Many of our students and graduates forge lifelong relationships and networks that last long beyond your training.
We design our programs with spaciousness and community in mind, so you can reflect on what you’re learning, experience hands-on practice and ask questions of our diverse, expert faculty.

“The training has been truly transformational—not only in my work as a facilitator for youth mentoring groups, but also in my life as a husband, friend, uncle, and co-worker. Rather than feeling overwhelmed, I leave each session with young people feeling encouraged and empowered. I’m deeply grateful for this experience—it’s changed how I relate to others and how I show up in the world.”
