A (life) Practice
Digital Somatic Education and Certification Program
Field Study is a comprehensive, 16-week online certification— approximately 150 hours of study—in somatic education. Rooted in Ceremony, this hybrid program incorporates self-study, recorded content, peer group sharing, and live interactions with Class Teachers and guest speakers.
Leading up to a public launch in fall of 2026, we are inviting a small group of 33 Founding Members to be the first to experience Field Study in our invite-only pilot program starting in April and running through early August. This group will help hold the container as we refine, listen, and build together.
Designed for practitioners, movers, educators, healers, creatives, and curious students alike, Field Study is not a singular technique but rather an integrative framework expressed through The Class. It serves as a dynamic learning environment that meets participants in the space between disciplines, body systems, and lived experience, where growth unfolds through sensation, inquiry, and embodied awareness.
Rooted in the science, philosophy, and living practice of The Class, the program offers a rigorous pathway into practical application. Through an integrated study of the body’s internal landscape, breathwork, nervous system awareness, and the art of facilitation, participants cultivate the skills to guide others from a deeply embodied perspective.
The program calls on a structured blend of self-paced coursework, live lectures, guided practice, peer mentorship, and community dialogue to explore the interconnected fields of body, breath, sensation, and awareness.
Field Study was born from years of student interest and from our responsibility to preserve and share the methodology of The Class. It represents an expansion of our mission by offering structured education that supports personal transformation and empowers individuals to bring this work into the world in meaningful, sustainable ways.
Why Us? Why Now?
Since The Class was founded almost fifteen years ago, students from around the world have been asking for a deeper way in—an opportunity to immerse themselves more fully in the Method and the foundational principles that inform The Class. They have sought not only to strengthen their personal practices, but to better understand what is happening within their bodies, to develop greater nervous system awareness, self-understanding, and presence, and to carry the philosophy of The Class into their daily lives, relationships, professions, and creative pursuits.
Today, the world is faster, louder, and more fragmented. Rates of stress, disconnection, burnout, and nervous system dysregulation continue to rise, while meaningful, embodied tools for integration remain limited or inaccessible. Now more than ever, people are seeking methodologies that reconnect them to their bodies, their inner intelligence, and one another.
Field Study is one of several initiatives The Class is creating to meet this moment—to amplify awareness, broaden access, and steward our mission to ignite collective consciousness through individual practice. It reflects our commitment to ensuring that those who feel called to this work have a clear, intentional pathway to learn, integrate, and embody it. It is both a response to what has been asked for and a step toward the enduring legacy of The Class.
