Coaches:
Master Nervous System Regulation For Client Peak Performance
Your executive clients are operating under intense pressure. Build the nervous system capacity they need to sustain excellence, so your coaching tools actually work.
When Your Coaching Tools Hit Their Limit.
A high-performing leader sits across from you, running on empty but still pushing hard. Your usual tools aren't working.
Goal-setting doesn't land.
Reframing doesn't work; they nod, but nothing changes.
But this isn't a client you can't help.
This is exactly the client you became a coach to serve.
Organisations need coaches who can work with leaders under real pressure, not just when they're calm and clear.
Demand for nervous system-informed coaching has increased 347% since 2020.
Yet fewer than 5% of coaches have the training to deliver it.
This isn't about finding a niche. It's about being able to help the clients who need you most.
The Complete System Approach That Brain-Based Coaching Misses
Most neuroscience coaching programs teach you about the brain: cognitive processes, prefrontal cortex optimisation, neural pathways.
That's valuable. But it's incomplete.
The cognitive tools you already have like goal-setting, reframing, or accountability, work brilliantly when clients are regulated. That's top-down.
But when a burned-out executive is stuck in survival mode, top-down doesn't work. Their prefrontal cortex is offline. Their body is running the show.
That's when you need bottom-up regulation through the body and the skill to know which pathway is accessible in any given moment.
I'm Andre Duquemin
For 20+ years, I've worked hands-on with the nervous system as an osteopath, craniosacral therapist, and trauma-informed therapist.
For 10+ years, I've coached executives. I've seen brilliant cognitive tools fail when leaders are at their edge and watched those same tools work beautifully once their nervous system had capacity.
Brain-based coaching programs teach you about the brain. This teaches you to work with the whole nervous system.
You get both: the clinical foundation most coaches never learn, and the coaching application that makes it immediately useful.
Clinical foundation
20+ years of hands-on somatic work gives you the body-based skills most coach training misses.

Coaching Application
10+ years coaching executives means everything you learn is adapted for coaching, not clinical settings.
But here's what makes this different from other somatic programs
We don't just teach you to regulate the nervous system and stop there.
We combine nervous system regulation with values-based coaching frameworks, from regulation to purposeful action.
Most somatic approaches leave coaches wondering "now what?" after regulation. We give you both: the somatic foundation AND the framework that translates calm into peak performance.
Three Integrated Systems.
One Nervous System State.
When the body is dysregulated, all three systems are compromised. Regulate the body, and all three come back online.
Traditional coaching treats thinking, feeling, and doing as separate issues.
Somatic neuroscience recognises they're all expressions of nervous system state.
The Survival System
Under intense pressure, the survival system takes over. The body is running the show; thinking and feeling become inaccessible.
You'll learn: Read stress signals in the body and use somatic tools to bring the nervous system back online.
The Feeling System
When pressure is high, emotions overwhelm instead of inform. Your client feels everything but can't use it.
You'll learn: Help clients process emotions through the body, turning feelings into useful information.
The Thinking System
Under strain, thinking becomes rumination instead of clarity. Mental loops spin without resolution.
You'll learn: Shift rumination to clear thought, sometimes through thinking itself, sometimes by regulating the body first.
The CORE Method. Your Systemic 4-Step Process
Unlike programs that teach you techniques to "wing it," you'll master a complete methodology:
CENTRE — Embody nervous system integration yourself first
ORIENT — Assess which of the systems is accessible for your client
REGULATE — Guide to the Integration Point where change happens
ESTABLISH — Position yourself as a nervous system informed coach
This isn't guesswork. It's a systematic process for working with any client in any state.
Embodied performance foundations program
Embodied Performance Foundations gives you the complete nervous system approach, so you can work with any client in any state, from dysregulation to peak performance.
Week 1-2
Assessment: Learn to read nervous system state through the body, so you know when clients need regulation before traditional coaching.
Week 3-5
Regulation and Integration: Master nervous system regulation tools and integrate them with existing coaching frameworks. Learn how regulation creates capacity for your tools to work.
Week 6-8
Application: Put it all together. Work fluidly with survival, feeling and thinking systems, with any client in any state.
The Framework In Action
Real transformation stories from clients working with coaches trained in the Embodied Performance framework.
"I feel calmer, I sleep better, I am so grateful for what life has brought since I did the coaching (and used the regulation tools and technqiues!) And I can enjoy my children and life again.."
"After the training I can sit with the discomfort, ease the feelings of anxiety and make changes quicker. I trust my instincts more and feel at ease doing so."
"I can't tell you how grateful I am for the Embodied Performance framework and the techniques I learned had a huge impact on me personally"
FAQs
Clarifying the details of our transformative coaching approach
Who is this program for?
This training is for experienced coaches who want to stand out in a crowded marketplace and serve clients who most need somatic skills.
What makes this program unique?
You'll learn both top-down and bottom-up regulation pathways with systematic assessment—something neither brain-based programs nor pure somatic programs teach. Built on 20+ years of clinical somatic practice combined with ACT integration, you get the complete toolkit for working with high-performers under pressure.
Is this right for me?
This is for experienced coaches who've had sessions where their usual tools didn't work—where a client was too dysregulated for cognitive approaches to land. If you've ever felt professionally stuck with a high-performer at their edge, this training gives you what you were missing.
What will I learn?
You'll master nervous system regulation techniques that go beyond traditional coaching. Learn to read body signals, shift client states, and integrate somatic tools with your existing coaching expertise.
How quickly can I apply this?
Immediately. Each module provides practical tools you can implement in your next coaching session. Our curriculum is built on immediate, actionable strategies for real-world application.
Do I need special training?
No prior somatic experience is required. We designed this program for coaches with existing skills who want to expand their toolkit with body-based approaches.
What's the ongoing support?
The 8-week program gives you everything you need to start applying the CORE Method immediately. We're building additional support options for graduates—details coming soon.
How is this different from other somatic or ACT programs?
Most somatic programs teach nervous system regulation but don't give you tools for values-driven action afterward—coaches feel stuck at "now what?" Most ACT programs assume clients have the nervous system capacity for psychological flexibility work—but dysregulated executives don't. We integrate both: somatic regulation creates the foundation, then ACT's framework provides direction toward values-based action. You'll learn to assess moment-by-moment which tools to use—something neither approach teaches alone.
How is this different from other neuroscience programs?
Most programs teach brain-based, top-down approaches. This teaches complete nervous system regulation, the somatic foundation that brain-based coaching misses, combined with one of coaching's most powerful frameworks, acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT). You're learning both approaches, not choosing between them.
