Through training programs and networking, Leben nuova is committed to promote research and education in the field of Somatics, facilitating the development of body-mind integration and the growth of consciousness in individuals and groups.
Training in our programs is mainly based on experiential, integrated and embodied ways of exploring movement, body and consciousness. While exploring the body-mind continuum on themselves, students learn to share their knowledge with others and to develop tools for their self-discovery and learning.
2018-2020 Courses
We are glad to announce a new cycle of training courses starting April 2018: the four developmental core courses required in both the SME and the IDME certification programs.

What educators said about IDME
“The IDME program changed the way I relate to myself and the world, the space and people around me.”
I have been deeply touched discovering the wonderful word of human beings development. The desire to support a more harmonious and aware growth of people, with children and their families.
“It brought me awareness and more freedom to explore new ways of educating children through play and care.”
“It gave me tools to observe in a more accurate way an infant’s motor organization as well as to facilitate developmental movement processes through a playful interaction, contact and movement. […] It is crucial for parents to have access to their own internal resources and to specific information, to be able to see transformation as a possibility for personal maturity and growth. ”
“I found out a new way to listen and meet children. Consciously going through the same experiences they have during their developmental path allowed me to really resonate with them.”
“IDME gave me tools to recognize what is essential, in myself and others, to facilitate the access to personal resources of parents and babies, offering them support and space for their needs.”
Sensing, Feeling and Action
by Bonnie Bainbridge Cohen
“In order to effect change, we start at the beginning and build gradually, successively and consciously to stimulate the development that occurs naturally when there are no restrictions. Then we redirect and recreate the process of effortless learning through acceptance, desire, curiosity, comfort and love.”
