In-person YEAR TRAINING

Somatic Consent Year Training
2022-2023

Personal and professional transformation

Empowered people empower people

We’re on a collective journey to discover the bliss we are all meant to experience.

An orgasmic blueprint lies at the core of humanity—and we have the code!

Whether you feel called to work with individuals or groups, empowering yourself in order to empower others is key.

  • Together we’ll explore ways to find more ease, joy and integrity in our connections with others.
  • You’ll learn how to provide sessions and workshops that reveal and enrich personal choice, empowerment, communication, connection and intimacy.
  • You’ll learn to skilfully guide others to personal liberation through the wisdom of their own bodies.
  • You’ll gain a deep understanding of interpersonal consent and apply it within your personal life and professional work.


Join us to share these practices with the world!

There will be a strong emphasis on deepening and developing your emotional and erotic fluency, which will inspire your own personal and spiritual transformation.

You can only guide others as deeply as you’ve gone yourself.

The deeper you go, the deeper you will be able to guide others.

The journey starts with you.

What participants say

Who is this training for and what will you learn?

This program provides the very best embodied consent training in the world.

It is a perfect foundational course for facilitators, educators, practitioners and therapists of all disciplines and modalities. 

The training qualifies you as a listed Somatic Consent facilitator and practitioner within our community of experts.

It is a deep dive into yourself within a community of like-minded explorers.

Together we take this transformative journey, fine-tuning hands-on skills, intuition, emotional and somatic intelligence.

At the peak of the training, you’ll embody the ultimate skill. The ability to gift your power to others—holding them fully in their experience of transformation.

During the training we’ll practise with each other. In this way, you’ll also have the experience of being held, receiving the gift of power from fellow trainees, in order for you to explore your truth.

This journey opens up the most intimate love, care and connection life can provide.

  • Somatic Consent one-on-one empowerment sessions

FAQ – Frequently Asked Questions 

The training is set out to start slowly, while going deep. We wish everyone to be able to explore at their own pace. If this is very new to you then yes, you might feel overwhelmed at times, and we are there to hold the space and provide support if necessary.

To get you started, please do the Online Course ‘Foundations of Somatic Consent‘ as part of the training.

You are welcome to do the online course independently and then deduct the course fee from the training (valid for all course sign-ups from 2021).

If in doubt please contact Karis mclaughlin.karis@gmail.com to discuss your concerns.

Yes, it is possible to attend with a partner, though it is not necessary.

If you choose to come as a couple, you are invited to work with different people for exercises.

If you are coming as a couple, please let the organiser know when booking.

All boundaries are honoured and there will be communication support throughout.

To gain certification you must attend all modules and calls of the Year Training and complete the homework assignments. To certify as an Empowerment Practitioner, you must give at least 10 empowerment sessions. To certify as a Foundations of Somatic Consent Facilitator, you must teach at least 5 workshops (live or online) and you must assist Matt in teaching one workshop. Completion of this online training does not automatically lead to certification; experience and demonstrated competencies are also required. Once you feel ready, you initiate a certification call with Matt (included in the training fee). Once certified, you must have two supervision sessions (paid) with Matt per year to keep the certification active.

The exercises vary from energy (no physical touch) to more intimate, sexual journeys. Exploring your erotic self is a part of the training but sexual activity is never obligatory for any participant in any particular exercise. Consent and boundaries are an inherent part of every exercise. We create a safer container for emotions and triggers that come up during the training.

Yes, you can still join the training if you are unable to attend one of the modules. We are aiming to repeat the training each year, so it might be possible to join the module in the following year. Depending on your skill and experience level, we can explore possibilities for you to cover the material you miss and still be able to certify. This is not guaranteed though.

The Year Training is the most comprehensive training offered in Somatic Consent. While it integrates content from the practitioner training, it goes much deeper. The length of the training deliberately allows for phases of integration, practice and homework. For example, while a 4-day intensive workshop can be powerful on its own, for a long-term integration of the teachings in your professional work and everyday life, learning and practising over an extended time is required. A closed group journeying together over a year period provides the necessary container for this learning.

We know it can sometimes be difficult to express your limits if you don’t want to work with someone. But this is part of the practice. You are encouraged to honour and express your limits at all time.

We do not assign partners according to gender.

The group of participants and the facilitation team will be max. 28 people. We are confident about starting the training in October 2022. We will discuss  appropriate safety protocol closer to the start time. We are aware that the pandemic also affects travel and we are working on a policy takes changes into account.

Once the Year Training has started, there is no refund. You can repeat the training for additional costs that will be negotiated individually depending how much of the training you have already done. You can not repeat singular modules. We are working on options to compile the educational content of the training in case someone can not attend a module. This is not guaranteed though. If you are in a very difficult financial situation, we are open to discuss all cases individually.
