Nathan Blair

Nathan is the Founder of The Somatic School, the UK’s first ICF Accredited school helping coaches incorporate impactful somatic approaches to work with the body’s intelligence online and in-person. After working in Leadership Development and Talent Management at a successful Performance Consultancy, Nathan left the corporate environment to set up a private Coaching practice. His passion for somatics took him to California where he facilitated weekly Men’s Groups and was a lead trainer on workshops about conscious relating. It was at the heart of this work that Nathan developed a deep understanding of relational embodiment as well as what is often described as "feminine leadership". As a Body-oriented Coach, Nathan has worked extensively with clients to tap into their vast emotional and embodied intelligence. Working with the subtle messages of the body Nathan helps clients clarify their wants and needs, tune into their inner knowing to make better decisions and align themselves with their deepest longing. He has immersed himself in somatic practice over the years learning from the founding thinkers and practitioners in Somatic Psychology, Interpersonal Neurobiology and Body Psychotherapy. He is trained in Hakomi, Focusing and Authentic Movement and integrates these therapeutic techniques and similar modalities into a coaching context when working with clients and training coaches.
