COMING UP! Embodied Coaching Masterclass
As a coach, you are the instrument of the work. How you show up, your presence, regulation, and capacity to stay with complexity, shapes what’s possible for your clients. While many coaches understand this conceptually, far fewer have had space to truly experience what it feels like to be grounded, regulated, and fully present in their own bodies.
I see this most clearly through the leaders and coaches I coach and mentor. Highly capable leaders often arrive functioning well on the surface, yet reactive, disconnected, or emotionally guarded underneath without realizing how much unprocessed experience is shaping their nervous systems and, in turn, how they lead. When leaders learn to work with the body, not just insight or strategy, reactivity softens, presence returns, and choice expands. The same is true for coaches.
In this masterclass, led by Erin Hutchins, Master Certified Coach (MCC), Co-Founder of ACT Leadership and Founder of Embodied, you won’t just hear about embodiment, you’ll experience it. Through guided practices and real world coaching examples, you’ll explore how embodiment supports you in doing your own inner work so you can meet clients with greater presence, clarity, and depth.
This experience is also an invitation into what’s next. Erin is offering a transformative, in person Embodied Workshop held locally in Old Town Alexandria on April 20-22, where you’ll have the time and space to deepen this work in community. The workshop moves beyond understanding and into lived practice through movement, reflection, presence, and integration so you leave not just informed, but changed.
Arrive to the masterclass with something you’re currently working with in yourself. Experience how embodiment creates space, awareness, and choice. By working with your own material, you’ll feel firsthand how this approach supports both your development as a coach and the way you show up with clients.
