"Marlena’s Body-Centered Training, was AMAZING! What makes it different from other trainings I’ve taken, which have been many, is the way she pulls in the body, mind and spirit. My experiences as both a client and coach went deeper and I was able to be more creative with whatever showed up.

I came away with profound transformation with some “stuff” that I have been dancing with for a very long time in my own life. This work enabled me to get to something bigger because of the combination of Body, Mind and Spirit focus. 

Pulling the coaching into the body makes the experience more visceral and alive. The imprint happens and I have been carrying it with me ever since the workshop. Like I said, AMAZING ! 

excerpt: "Marlena has qualities that I aspire to as a coach and workshop leader. She has the experience that helps her completely confident that what she is doing with a clients is going to go somewhere useful – even though she has no idea where that is in the moment - the ability to not know and still step up with confidence...I loved this workshop."

"Body-Centered Coaching keeps the focus on loving attention to the client. As a coach I am nourished by the session along with the client. The workshop not only helped my skills as a coach, but also helped me grow as a person at the same time. Observing Marlena and working with a group were great gifts."

"As an executive coach and OD consultant with a thriving practice, I have had many successes with my clients. What I have noticed is that clients who can move past the power of the mind and into the intuition experience accelerated and sustained the desired change, growth and goal attainment. This program and Marlena’s approach to teaching Body-Centered Coaching is an invaluable tool for coaches and clients who are ready to move deeply and quickly in accessing their wisdom."

"It is NOT enough to read Marlena’s book – everyone must take training with Marlena to anchor the techniques she presents. You will love the journey."

"I have to give Body-Centered Coaching kudos. It was the intensity of the weekend that allowed it to really sink in. Something magic happened for me. I had it at an intellectual knowing, but not the comfort to let it pop up and use it when needed. Your seminar shifted my coaching into another arena of comfort in allowing the wisdom of the body to speak."

"As a result of participating in this workshop I will be using mindfulness with my clients – inviting them to get centered at the beginning of the call, connecting to their bodies during the session and giving them acknowledgements in mindfulness. Thanks Marlena for an inspiring workshop."

"Marlena created an open playful space that allowed me to effortlessly experience and practice this work. Her grace and intuition are amazing. The body-centered approach feels so easy to be with your clients and let their body work its magic."

"Before I took this training with Marlena, I used more “talk” coaching. When I had my clients check into their bodies for input, I really didn’t have confidence that I knew what I was doing. However, now there are a few simple methods I’ve learned that have been like using magic with my clients. When they’re confused or stuck, we go to the body for answers and they seem to rise out of nowhere. Very cool!"

"I am so pleased with what I have learned about how the body has so much useful information. I personally learned a very useful and powerful piece of information. I now understand and BELIEVE that my coaching and personal life will be greatly enhanced with the use and integration of Body-Centered Coaching."

"Practical and extremely useful techniques to get deeper into the coaching experience. I will incorporate this into my practice immediately and often."

"This workshop was so inspiring! In my opinion, Marlena is on the cutting edge of coaching and what’s possible with mindfulness and the body. The course was so engaging, insightful and was so interesting that I hired her as my coach so I can go deeper. I admire Marlena and what she’s about. This is important work."

"I felt the understanding and experience of finding a slower and more intuitive rhythm the most impactful and transformative for my practice."

"I experienced ‘embodying the metaphor’ as a workshop volunteer. Marlena intuitively accompanied me on my journey to a big ‘Aha!’ It was exhilarating learning and putting into words what my body already knew."

"I feel like I have the skills to help my clients gain insights from their bodies. This course has been a special and precious gift."

"Your easy flowing style and the power of your loving presence facilitated a reignition of my passion for this work. Thank you for the awesome experience of creating my personal spirit of abundance."

"Working with Marlena Field feels like being held in trusting, compassionate, playful spaciousness. Marlena respects and honors both client and process by staying so lovingly present and genuinely curious, and the resulting magic is authentic and transformational. I came away from the workshop incredibly inspired to incorporate Body-Centered Coaching into my own coaching practice, and feel I have gained so much more for having worked with Marlena in person than I even understood after reading her clearly written book. I'm looking forward to working with my clients in a whole new way!"

"My experience was a beautiful and much needed gift for myself, and a stronger sense felt sense of who I am. I feel better equipped to counter the confusion, to know what is right for me, because the answers are here in my body. I can’t wait to step off into the unknown."

"Marlena is a master teacher, and this workshop was a wonderful opportunity, both to learn new ideas and techniques, and to put them into immediate practice. Marlena created an environment that was warm, supportive, inspiring and fun."

"Marlena is amazing! She knows how to dance in the moment gracefully and she demonstrates care and patience in working with clients. She showed me how important it is to stay with the client a little longer - to stay with the issue just a little longer -with just one more question and one more."

"This workshop was very inspiring and dynamic. It opened my eyes to a whole new realm of possibilities for doing therapy and being with clients."

"This workshop has been an amazing experience. I learn through experience, by doing the practices and there were plenty of occasions to do so. I feel thrilled and excited to go back home with these new tools around Body-Centered Coaching. My confidence level is increased, as is the love I have for my profession as a coach. Marlena is a role model to learn from; her profound presence, her big heart, funny side and huge respect are but a few aspects one can appreciate. Thank you Marlena!"

"A transformational awareness took place within me as related to my new bodily discovery and aliveness. I've reconnected with my body intelligence and language. I've discovered a new nurturing process tool called "My Body"."

"These are great methods that help you to know yourself better. They help your clients to get out of their head and tap into the wisdom of their body. These are great experiences that really embody the new feelings and emotions."

"You are a skilled and spacious teacher. What a pleasure. I can't wait to get home and practice with my clients."

"Amazing work! Brilliant! Thank you Marlena for your insights and powerful suggestions. I look forward to your next workshop."

"I thoroughly enjoyed this course. Marlena is not only a wonderful person but a truly gifted coach. Her presence when coaching is inspiring. Her techniques/methods are extremely powerful and I look forward to trying them with my clients."

"Before attending the Body-Centered Coaching workshop, I was unsure how or even if my abilities around body/spirit connection had any place in the coaching profession. Now, I can see clearly my place, what I can offer to clients and many methods of offering it as a result of this workshop."
