S6E01 - Comparing Embodiment & Somatics Training - How Is Fec Different?

School of Embodied Arts Podcast with Jenna Ward

When I first studied ‘embodiment’ there was only 1 professional training I could find on the market (it was this one). Over the years ‘embodiment’ has become a popular concept & the number of training has blossomed.

Those entering the space of professional embodiment training may feel overwhelmed by choice! So how can you figure out the difference between them? And which one is right for you?

In this special podcast, I’m exploring how Feminine Embodiment Coaching is different from…

• Somatic Coaching
• Embodiment Coaching
• Embodied Facilitation
• Trauma Therapy (such as Somatic Experiencing)
• Embodied Movement Practice

This podcast teases apart some of the subtle, but key, differences in perspectives and

approaches between different ways of working.

Specifically, we look at:

• Do women need a different approach to embodiment?
• Why geeking out on embodiment concepts like polyvagal therapy & acute stress might feel alluring, and yet are rarely what a practitioner needs to deepen their resonance
• The KEY to embodiment (that is missing in almost every training curriculum I read)
• What’s a the heart of an embodiment training (& why multiple modalities aren’t always a good thing)

We’re not contrasting again any particular training or school, rather exploring how we perceive and see the busy constellation of the embodied arts.

Would love to hear your perspectives once you’ve tuned in - drop me a comment here.
