The Emergent Archetype Coaching Certification

A 6-Module Journey to Mastery through Breath, Awareness & Archetypal System

This is not a coaching program that teaches you how to fix.

It is an initiation into presence.
The Emergent Archetype Coaching Certification is a 12-month, embodied journey for those called to guide others through deep inner transformation, by listening to what wants to emerge rather than forcing change.
Through breath, awareness, and archetypal intelligence, you will learn to hold sacred, grounded containers where clarity, healing, and truth naturally unfold.
This work begins in the body.
It matures through archetypal insight.
It culminates in embodied leadership.

Become the Space Where Transformation Arises

A Path of Embodiment, Not Technique

Here, coaching is not something you do.
It is something you become.
You will train your nervous system to stay present in the unknown.
You will learn to listen beneath words, to the field, the breath, the energy of what is alive.
You will work with timeless maps such as the Enneagram and Human Design, not as labels, but as mirrors of consciousness and potential.

This is coaching as remembrance.

This training is especially suited for those who value:

  • Depth over quick fixes

  • Embodiment over performance

  • Facilitation over direction

No prior coaching certification is required. What matters most is a willingness to engage in personal practice, self-inquiry, and embodied learning.

Our Philosophy

Emergent Archetype Coaching is built on a simple premise: transformation is not something we force; it is something we facilitate. Rather than “fixing” clients, we train coaches to work with what naturally wants to emerge through presence, breath, and precise archetypal maps.


At the heart of the approach is Emergence Coaching, a methodology rooted in listening, allowing, and non-interference. Coaches learn to hold an ethical, energetically coherent container where insight and change arise from the client’s own inner intelligence, not the coach’s agenda.


We pair this foundational stance with embodied practice. Breathwork is not treated as an add-on, but as a primary pathway for nervous system regulation, somatic attunement, emotional release, and expanded awareness. Coaching is an experience the body can trust and integrate.

FEATURES OF THIS TRAINING

We integrate archetypal systems as compassionate mirrors:

•. The Enneagram as a map of ego patterns, shadow, and potential, used as a diagnostic tool for liberation, not a box.

Human Design as a blueprint for energy type, decision-making strategy, and deconditioning helping clients align with their authentic flow.

☀ Flexible Learning Path

““I’ve taken many online courses, and most don’t create real connection. This program has built genuine presence and community in an online format.””

—Kundalini Warrior Grad—

HOW ONLINE TRAINING WORKS

Most online schools simply send you a bunch of videos and wish you luck. There is an abundance of evidence to show that this type of learning, particularly for communal practices, just doesn’t work. Here at Yoga Farm Ithaca, we take the opposite approach, and we recognize that in order to learn and grow, first there must be a sense of belonging and connection. 

Our trainers are Educators, and have decades of experience in the classroom. At YFI each program has been developed with learning styles, and curriculum flow in mind. 

We have tested various teaching methods to ensure that online learning feels like in-person learning. 

Our courses are live, interactive, engaging, and connecting. The development and growth of our graduates speaks for itself.

Study Options:

  • Flexible schedule; complete in 1 to 3 years

  • Hybrid & Asynchronous learning in-person options + online content

  • Begin anytime no prerequisites

  • Community & mentorship, learn in circles, free from hierarchy

  • You’ll create a login and password for our official eLearning platform Mighty Network where you’ll find classes, materials, recorded lessons, and more. This updated platform has a number of resources offered and also serves as a social networking platform for community connection.

  • Each module is 6 weeks in length. Between each module you will have an integration break for working on the coursework and delving deeper into the curriculum on your own.

  • Our private Online Academy group is where most of the discussions happen. This is a space to ask questions and receive feedback from your instructors and to make connections with your classmates.

Why We Do Not Follow the ICF Coaching Model

The Emergent Archetype Coaching Certification is rooted in embodied, emergent, and archetypal work, which differs fundamentally from competency-based coaching models such as the ICF.
While the ICF framework is valuable for goal-oriented, cognitive coaching, it prioritizes measurable outcomes, standardized assessments, and verbal methodologies. Our work recognizes that deep transformation often arises beneath language, through the body, breath, nervous system, and subtle awareness.
This program trains coaches to listen to what is unfolding in the moment rather than guiding clients toward predefined objectives. Because of this, our assessment focuses on presence, ethical containment, somatic attunement, and integration of lived practice, rather than performance against fixed competencies.
We honor the ICF’s contribution to the coaching profession, while choosing a path that supports depth, embodiment, and consciousness-based transformation. Our certification reflects mastery of this lineage and methodology, not compliance with an external standard.
