What is the Somatic Enneagram Foundation Program?
it is an in depth, experiential grounding in Somatic Enneagram practice. The Foundation Program also provides the fundamentals for professional certification for those of you who want to study further and develop greater competencies.
MODULE 1: Basic Introduction to Somatic Awareness Practice (2 days)
Learn how to use our body’s intelligence to relax type structure and cultivate inner resources, enabling us to experience a more open way to meet ourselves and the world at large.
MODULE 2: A Somatic Enneagram Approach to the Defense System (2 days)
Learn how to recognize the defense mechanisms somatically —at the point of arising—so that we can begin to free ourselves from on-automatic reactions to life and its challenges.
Come and join us as we deepen our awareness of how and why we react as we do and where this is experienced in the body. By listening to the body, we can access our highly conditioned patterns at their roots, and free ourselves from automatically following these impulses. We gain greater resilience and a balanced, grounded platform of receptivity where we can experience our lives from present moment awareness.” — Marion Gilbert

WHY ZEPHYR POINT CONFERENCE CENTER?
Always on the lookout for beautiful, serene retreat centers for our in-person programs, we are excited to have found this quaint and unique conference center nestled on the shores of Lake Tahoe in the Nevada Sierras. With Stateline South Shore Tahoe just a few miles up the road, it’s a nature-filled remote get-away as well as a surprisingly dynamic place to visit.
Our group will be staying in one-of-a-kind, individually designed cabins right on the lake. Each features its own kitchen as well as living space, providing a community experience in large cabins that include individual bedrooms for coziness and privacy too.

THE POWERFUL BENEFITS OF IN-PERSON LEARNING
We are very excited to be offering our first three foundational modules, Modules 1, 2, and 3 IN-PERSON! Led by Marion Gilbert and supported by newly certified Somatic Enneagram Facilitators, in-person modules are something that just can’t be duplicated online, on ZOOM. While we do our very best to provide optimal learning experiences while online, there is nothing that compares to the energetic support and camaraderie of group learning, side by side, across a handful of days. Opportunities for discussion, sharing, and processing with others cannot be underestimated.
These three modules, each spanning two days, will include a multitude of experiences and teachings:
- Didactic learnings of the Somatic Enneagram’s Modules 1, 2, and 3.
- Inner Practices to cultivate the Inner Observer, Grounded Presence, and Placement of Attention.
- Interactive exercises for developing received knowing, feeling, and sensing.
- Breakout groups for sharing conversation and experience.
- Didactic Somatic Enneagram: understanding type structure and our defense system.
- Integration practices and movement.
- Includes guided meditations, guided inner practices.
- Includes labyrinth walks intending to highlight something that may be hidden in our shadow in order to receive new understanding and insight.

What is Our Capacity?
The “Capacity” for staying present to what is determines how integration can occur. Capacity is developed through witnessing the enactment of the third force of creation: The reconciling force.
The receptive force of creation (the first force), and reactive force of creation (the second force), are balanced and intrinsically connected by a third force of creation called the reconciling force.
