In my experience clients are searching for something deeper than what traditional coaching or therapy can offer. They don't just want to talk about their problems. They don't want another analysis or way of feeling and expressing their problems. They want to actually feel something shift -for good. Then, just as urgently, they feel a deep need to reconnect with a source of strength, one that they can sense is there but they can't seem to access with the methods they have tried so far.
And perhaps you've felt it too—that there's a layer of transformation you can't quite reach with your current tools. A depth of healing that remains just beyond what conventional methods can touch.
What if the missing piece lies hidden in plain sight, in another paradigm, another level of focus?
Why Experienced Practitioners Are Seeking Shamanic Training
Over the past decade, something significant has shifted in the landscape of men's development work.
Men are no longer satisfied with sitting in circles talking about their feelings, as valuable as this is as one important part of the healing process. They're not looking for more analysis of their childhood wounds. Through work they have already done, they know them quite well. They know they're neither "toxic" nor in need of being "fixed."
They're looking for connection. To some deeper part of themselves and those around them, that they can't quite define. Whether they know it consciously or not, they are looking for practices that restore them to their authentic power. They are looking for what used to be a natural part of self-development. They are looking for men's initiation.
And as practitioners, we're feeling the call to offer something more potent. Something that creates real, energetic shifts—not just cognitive understanding, or ability to express.
This is where core-shamanic techniques and the INtegral Men's Initiations together with the Soul Bath method become transformative additions to your existing practice.
Not as a replacement for what you do—but as the catalyst that makes everything else you offer exponentially more effective.
What Makes This Training Different
Most practitioner trainings focus on teaching you techniques to use on clients.
This one begins with you.
The Men's Coach Practitioner Training is built on a foundational principle: you cannot guide others through initiations you haven't experienced yourself.
Over 14 months, you'll journey through six shamanic initiations that address the core wounds and power sources of masculine development:
- Lower World Father Soul Initiation – Healing the paternal lineage
- Lower World Mother Soul Initiation – Releasing maternal entanglements
- Upper World Four Soul Powers
Initiation – Activating Earth, Fire, Air, and Water - Dissolution of Entanglements – Clearing energetic ties to past relationships
- Shamanic Mature Male Role Initiation – Transitioning from boy to initiated man
- Ancient Ancestor Initiation – Connecting to collective ancestral strength
Each of these isn't something you learn cognitively. They are not symbols. They are not theoretical. You will experience them in your own body, psyche, and energy field before you ever guide another man through them.
This is what creates the depth and authenticity you and your clients are searching for.
Three Levels, One Transformation
The training unfolds in three stages, each building organically on the last:
LEVEL 1: FOUNDATION & IMMERSION (3 Months)
"Experience the Healing Path & Learn the Basics of Facilitation"
We begin with your own healing journey—experiencing the Father Soul and Mother Soul initiations that address foundational wounds most men, many practitioners, and maybe you, carry.
This modality does away with the need to be perfect in order to guide others. You are even more valuable to your clients or your circle, or your workshop participants if you have the confidence to share from your own healing journey, even as it develops. All you have to bring to the table is courage to face every layer that comes up and be an example in this way. It's about HEALING ALL THE WAY and the confidence that this can be done.
Simultaneously, you learn:
- How to hold safe, potent space for men's work
- Shamanic drumming fundamentals
- Basic Soul Bath facilitation
- Foundations of men's circle leadership as a grounded healing space
By the end of Level 1, you've begun clearing your own foundational blocks and developed the core skills to start working with clients at a deeper level.
Investment: $1,199
LEVEL 2: ACTIVATION & COACHING MASTERY (6 Months)
"Awaken Your Power & Learn to Guide Others"
This is where the training deepens even more significantly.
You receive the Four Soul Powers initiation—a profound activation of your connection to the supporting qualities of the universal spirits of the Earth, Fire, Air, and Water elements.
You dissolve any remaining energetic entanglements with former partners, employers, or family members that still drain your power or keep you from moving forward in life.
You also dive into:
- Re-examining the Jungian archetypes through a shamanic lens
- Understanding the origins and distortions of King, Warrior, Magician and Lover
- Experiencing the Four Soul Powers through Soul Bath resonance work
- Neo-Animism—the original human cosmology adapted for modern men
- Leading shamanic journeys for private coaching clients
- Creating guided Soul Bath audio practices for groups and private session clients
- Understanding trauma-informed space holding
Critically, you begin supervised practice sessions where you receive feedback and mentorship on your facilitation.
You also gain essential professional foundations:
- Ethics and boundaries in coaching work
- Simple client agreements that protect both you and your clients
- Business foundations for sustainable practice
By the end of Level 2, you're qualified to offer private coaching sessions and lead men's circles with confidence.
Investment: $3,297 (continuation from Level 1)
LEVEL 3: MASTERY & CERTIFICATION (5 Months)
"Complete Your Healing Journey & Learn to Clear, Heal, Guide and Initiate Others"
The final stage brings you to your own simplicity of mastery.
You complete the Mature Male Role Initiation—energetically dissolving the boy role and stepping fully into initiated manhood.
You receive the Ancient Ancestor Initiation, connecting you to the collective field of ancestral knowledge and strength.
Your facilitation skills become refined and professional:
Guiding others through the complete 6-phase initiation system
Facilitating dissolution and liberation processes with power and sensitivity
Working with complex cases and challenges
Professional ethics and standards of practice
You also receive business coaching specifically for practitioners:
Positioning and pricing your offerings authentically
Marketing your guidance and healing work as leadership and transformation coaching
Dissolving poverty consciousness around spiritual work
Upon completion, you receive official certification as an Integral Men's Initiations Facilitator.

It's not theory. It's working with direct energetic transformation.
Here's what sets this training apart from academic or purely cognitive approaches:
Not discussion circles—fire rituals
Not concepts—shamanic practice in nature
Not talking about power—embodying it
The Soul Bath method, rooted in core-shamanic techniques, creates direct, energetically palpable shifts. Your clients won't just understand their issues differently—they'll feel something release and previously frozen aspects of themselves heal.
They'll sense power returning to their bodies. They'll experience clarity emerging from previous chaos, hopelessness and confusion.
As Christian Weitbrecht, a longtime Buddhist practitioner, shared:
"Through the Soul Bath practice, I was able to reconnect deeply with my inner strength. Old blockages dissolved, and today I feel freer and more self-effective. Simon's work first showed me clearly what I truly wanted—and then guided me there faster than decades of intensive practice in Tibetan Buddhism and many practice-oriented psychological methods. I especially appreciate that Soul Bath integrates beautifully with my previous spiritual paths."
The Invitation
If you've read this far, you likely already know, that there's something calling you toward this work. Something that recognizes the depth, the authenticity, the aliveness of what's being offered here.
Maybe you've been searching for a way to bring more potency to your sessions.
Maybe you've felt limited by talk-, expression-, meditation-, or rite of passage-based methods. Maybe you're being called to work specifically with men in a way you haven't yet found the tools for.
Or maybe you simply feel that pull toward initiation. Toward becoming the guide you wish you'd had.
This training is designed to support exactly that.
Not to make you into something you're not, but to activate what's already there—and give you the skills, practices, and certification to offer this profound work to others.

Men are searching for guides who've done their own work. Who can hold space for the depth they're seeking. Who can facilitate genuine initiation—not just conversation.

Not through theory.
Not through formulas.
But through your own lived experience of healing, power retrieval, disentanglement, and deep transformation.
The question is: Are you ready?
