The Core Rising
Teacher Training
A somatic practitioner certification designed to guide both you and your clients from embodied survival patterns into empowered, Self-led identity and aligned action.
Spring Cohort: March 16 - August 10, 2026
Learn The Core Rising Method: A Structured Psychosomatic Framework for Reorganizing Survival into Self-Led Identity
This is a Somatic Practitioner Certification that integrates movement, bodywork, breath, experiential meditation, and lifestyle architecture into a cohesive facilitation framework designed to create sustainable, identity-level change.
The Method follows a distinct arc from regulation → reorientation. We work directly with survival states — not to bypass them, but to metabolize and reorganize them — moving from protective patterning into Self-led presence.
Each survival state has its own protocol, informed by its unique physiological and energetic trajectory. Through precise, state-specific techniques, we guide the nervous system through its natural arc toward embodied agency and aligned action.
The Work
MODULE I
EMBODIMENT
EMBODIMENT
Before you guide others, you’ll learn through experience — how to work with your own physiology, emotional patterns, and survival responses. This foundation creates the ground from which you teach safely and effectively.
Rather than memorizing techniques, you’ll feel them. You'll learn how the body holds experience and how true regulation feels.
MODULE II
Facilitation
Continued practice, study, and application. You will learn the Why behind these body-based techniques, How they support the mind-body healing experience, and trauma-informed tools to safely guide your clients through their process.
Module III Practice Teaching
Explore case studies, create situation-specific sequences, practice pairing somatic techniques with emotional states, watch live demos by Maggie and put all of your tools together. This is where embodied learning becomes intentional action.
MODULE IV
Beyond Trauma
Healing from trauma and stress requires so much more than addressing the event(s) itself. It requires understanding how adaptive behaviors form because of the event(s), how they become patterns in our lives, and teaching the body that creating a new way of being is not only possible but it is safe.
Learn how each survival response influences our behaviors in regard to our relationships with ourselves, with others and with our environments. This is identity shift, at the nervous system level – creating new awareness, perspectives, possibilities and action.
MODULE V
Business & Your Body
The professional is often a reflection of the personal – what does your nervous system believe about your ability to serve, to be seen, to succeed? Learn how to align business with your nervous system capacity, plus intentional strategy and energetics to scale.

Testimonials
As a yoga teacher and Thai massage bodyworker, working somatically has always been at the heart of what I do. This training felt like a natural extension of my existing practice. It integrated seamlessly into my work and expanded it in a truly profound way.
Maggie and Masha have a natural gift for holding space. They share from a place of embodied experience and genuinely live the material they teach. I found that deeply inspiring and motivating, encouraging me to cultivate that same depth within myself.
We were given both space and encouragement to explore and develop our own style within the work. That freedom fostered authenticity and helped me feel grounded and confident in my unique way of holding space.
On a personal level, this training has added real depth to my life. The emphasis on personal practice has supported me in developing a different relationship with my body. I’ve gained deeper access to myself, my awareness has expanded, and I feel far more attuned to my own capacity.
From that place, I now find myself holding clients in a different dimension - with greater compassion, understanding, presence, and support.
This training has provided me with everything I need to feel inspired, confident and resourced in my work. I look forward to the journey ahead!
-Â Noemie Fontenelle
Maggie has an incredible ability to enable you to feel seen and heard and works with such care and integrity. She meets you where you are at and The Core Rising Method she has created provides a safe and empowering way to heal which is life-changing.Â
I joined as someone completely new to the practitioner field, but with a deep knowing that the gift of healing ourselves is innate within us - I just didn't have the toolkit to quite know what that looked like.Â
Now I have a structure that can be applied which gets to the core of the symptoms being experienced and creates transformative change but in a way that feels supportive and sustainable, both for myself and for others.
This training has not only given me the skills and confidence to support others but has also been a deeply personal journey of growth and healing.Â
I am so thankful for Maggie, Masha and this experience—it has been truly transformative and empowering in ways I never thought possible.Â
Thank you.
- Emma Crossley
This program was everything I wanted and more.Â
I was hesitant because other somatic certifications I took fell short. They either went really into the nervous system and states, but not how to support clients in real time, or only focused on regulation which Maggie teaches is truly a bandaid (a very much needed one when you start your journey) in this work.Â
I felt like I took my expertise to another level, because I can teach the work now in accessible ways.Â
Maggie's embodiment and passion really make the program what it is. If you're unsure if this program is for you, I implore you to see how this message sits in your body and listen to it!
- Lauren Dike
The training has been truly transformational.
Maggie is an incredible teacher who creates a space where you feel seen and supported. Her expertise, knowledge, and genuine passion shines through in everything she shares!
For me, one of the most powerful parts of the training was embodiment of the tools and practices. It’s one thing understanding the education and science, but another to truly embody them and have your own experience and transformation.
I’ve left the training with a greater connection to myself, awareness of my nervous system, and practices that I will have for life. I'm looking forward to continuing my exploration, and sharing The Core Rising Method with others!
I’m so grateful to have found Maggie and the training, and would highly recommend for anyone feeling called to somatic work.
- Emma Francis
I felt guided by a professional who knew what she was talking about. I could tell Maggie acted and showed up with full integrity and passion for this work. The training helped me become more confident in teaching somatics and holding myself in the process. I came out so much more confident and whole as a person. It enriched me for life.
- Linda Smits
As someone who isn’t currently working in this field the course provided ample opportunities to learn and to practice. It has provided me with a solid foundational knowledge and felt sense of what The Core Rising Method is and how it can help others heal. Maggie has a contagious energy that just leaves you excited for life. She has an ability to allow you to feel what is possible from a place of being present in your body.
- Kathleen Nicholls
Maggie is an incredible practitioner, vulnerable knowledge sharer, authentic self-marketer, and teacher. Her presence and ability to deeply connect with her students and their somatic experiences makes you feel truly seen. I'm so appreciative of the space that Maggie created of dedicated, present, compassionate, visionary individuals. The TCR method is beautifully layered, and I'm so happy to be able to share the work. Thank you Maggie and everyone in my cohort xo
- Danielle Silverstein
In this training, Maggie combined her skill, knowledge and passion with the best teacher; experience. Throughout the course, we literally practiced what was preached. While Maggie taught her own method, she encouraged us to make it our own, infuse it with our unique magic. That is the true sign of a humble teacher. This training is an invitation to come home to your body and learn to guide others to do the same.
- Orit Reiter
Maggie's training is excellent, and I highly recommend this course for anyone looking to boost their skills as a somatic coach or practitioner and anyone new to nervous system healing work who wants a deeper dive for themselves. I had been doing this work for a little over a year and had already worked with clients for a few months when I started this program. I acquired a plethora of additional resources and sequences that I was immediately able to put into use in my own practice. It is an extremely good value; the amount of support, information, resources, and love provided was well worth the cost.
- Dusty Horton
Maggie leads from a place of open-hearted connection. She can walk people through embodied practice, parts work, and lead more formal education. This requires great devotion and skill. I feel very safe in her presence as a student, client, and practitioner. I have completed two of Maggie's group programs and can assure you that whatever she does, she does with her whole being. I felt an immediate sense of safety and welcoming in her presence. I have no doubt that I will find myself in more programs of hers in the future.
- Jillian Parkhurst
I entered this training as a trauma informed coach, used to talking and asking a lot of questions in my 1:1 sessions. I was working towards the somatic part of coaching, though I felt insecure with it still and didn't really know how to structure sessions. I graduated from this training feeling secure with somatic work. It's crazy how it elevated my 1:1 sessions and my group sessions. I can't put into words how much my inner world changed as well as my outer world since entering this space.
