You know the body matters, but where to start?
Most trainers, coaches, therapists and facilitators know that including the body is vital.
It’s a key part of who people are and often where the quickest, most powerful changes can happen. For getting unstuck and for changes to stick, it’s crucial.
BUT WHERE TO START? It can be confusing to know HOW exactly to work with the body, and it can feel scary to be a bit abstract or esoteric, as often taught.
Frankly there’s a lot of BS out there and even well-meaning embodiment teachers don’t always offer useful tools.
The body is vital for quick, lasting change
Working with the body is one of the quickest and most effective way to facilitate change. We are a body, not just a mind, after all.
Many facilitators, though, often feel a bit lost with specifically HOW to work with the body. Yes, they know it’s a good idea, but would like a simple system to rely upon for powerful change.
What specifically do you do with a client with low confidence or bad boundaries, for example (both to get deep insights and to shift things)?
If only there was a concrete and broad set of techniques that actually made sense…
A powerful, practical system
The Embodied Toolkit is a system of 26 archetypal, non-athletic postures for facilitators. It’s a practical set of techniques matched to common client challenges.
The poses quickly shift states, open up new possibilities, and can be given as concise “homework” for lasting change.
Developed by an international team over a number of years, there is a posture for every situation along the broad range of human experience.
You don’t need to be a ninja master, Olympic athlete, or special tantric unicorn to use them. Embodied Toolkit is a straightforward system. It works. Simple.

What past students say about Embodied Toolkit
"As an ontological coach, I like to work somatically whenever it serves. The Embodied Toolkit makes this easy for me, providing a comprehensive and handy kit I can use to bring instant embodiment to the inquiry, with minimum fuss. The postures may appear straightforward, but are actually sophisticated tools!"
"Stellar content and 100% applicable to real life. The course gave me solid preparation for how to actually teach the postures – not just practise them myself."
"Embodiment postures have lifted my coaching to the next level. They bring my clients into
their bodies and feelings. It’s an amazing gift."
"Embodied Toolkit taught me to produce (actual) profound state changes in clients, even when coaching online. Talk about a game-changer."
"A refreshing method of self-inquiry and transformation.
Highly effective for changing behavioural patterns."
"There wasn't anything in the yoga world that met my needs until Toolkit. I love the non-guru approach and found it very different from my usual training."

Mark Walsh
CEO and Founder, Embodiment Unlimited
Show Bio
“Mr Embodiment” is the author of Embodiment, The Body in Coaching and Training, and Embodied Meditation. He hosts The Embodiment Podcast (over 1 million downloads), and led The Embodiment Conference (1000 teachers, 500,000 delegates). Seeing a theme yet?
He founded the Embodied Facilitator Course, and has trained over 2000 embodiment coaches in over 40 other countries (some of which will even let him back in).
He gained an honours in psychology (despite been an alcoholic at the time), and has taught widely in the corporate world where he pretended to be a grown up for years, including with blue-chip companies (e.g. Unilever, Shell, Axa, L’Oreal) whom he charged wayyyy too much as they made him wear a suit.
Mark has also upset… sorry, taught… many yogis, NGOs, police officers and several militaries.
He has worked in war zones, and entertained over 50,000 children. Mark has headlined International Coach Federation events, taught at universities, and lived with the circus in Ethiopia, worked with celebrities and kissed a princess.
He is an aikido black belt, and also has 25 years of experience of other martial arts, with yoga, bodywork, improv comedy, conscious dance and meditation.
Embodiment is his obsession, life’s work, and frankly at this point he couldn’t get a job doing anything else. Mark dances like your dad at a wedding, overshares about his gorgeous Ukrainian wife, and offends pirates with his swearing.
He is now tired of writing in the third person.

A message from Mark
“It’s nice to be offering a course that I know is extremely effective, as we’ve been doing it around the world for many years now.
For coaches, it gives them a very practical set of tools, an immediate “go-to” for almost any problem that a client may bring to them. It takes clients straight into a level of deep insight that you just don’t see when asking questions verbally.
Coaches tend to like that they don’t need to jump around or do anything too “alternative”, and frankly, just because it works so well. Often, the joke is that it’s TOO effective, in fact, because people experience such deep insights so fast. They also appreciate that they can give it as short but powerful pieces of “homework” for clients to take away, without requiring them to do anything too athletic or esoteric.
Many yoga teachers, of course, also use this system (in fact, we used to call it “Embodied Yoga Principles”, which is why you’ll hear it referred to as “EYP”) to add a layer of psychological depth to their postural yoga classes. It allows students to take yoga “off of the mat” and into life.
Embodied Toolkit has been part of my personal practice for years as a facilitator. Often, it’s the thing I do just before I teach, as it’s so good at state-changing. Whenever I’m working with clients, it’s one of my main tools.
This course is also beautifully filmed and edited (damn, we spent some cash!), so it’s a very high-quality recorded product.
This is one I’m proud of, so hope you can join the community.”
