THE REFINERY

6-Week Group Somatic Coaching & Course

A container designed to support real movement in your life.

Online · 6 Weeks · Limited Spots
Next Cohort begins September 9, 2026

Early Bird: $100 off thru July 15

Life gives us raw material:
Ideas, longings, insights, unfinished intentions.

The Refinery is where we work with that material.

Over six weeks we’ll slow down, skill up, and refine how we show up for what matters.

 

A Somatic Coaching Container for Personal Change & Community Connection

The Refinery blends: somatic practices, relational learning, and live coaching within an intimate, engaged cohort.

We work with the real material of your life: your patterns, intentions, and aspirations. Through embodied practices, group reflection, and optional spot coaching, participants develop the awareness and cultivate the capacity needed to move their lives forward with greater alignment.

The work is both personal and collective.
Because when one person’s insight deepens, the whole room learns.

The Refinery includes

  • Live Content + Coaching


    12 hours of live content across 6 weeks: meeting once per week for 2 hours on Zoom.

    Each session includes:

    • Somatic practices to drop out of the mind and cultivate access to the wisdom of the body

    • Experiential and connective practices in breakout groups

    • Group reflection and relational learning

    • Option for live 1:1 spot coaching or tailored support within your process or goals

    • Weekly home practices and resources to deepen the work between sessions

    Because the cohort is intentionally intimate, everyone gets to participate and be seen, witnessed, and met.

  • Accountability + Community


    Real change rarely happens alone.

    Between sessions, participants stay connected through:

    Accountability Pairs:
    A designated practice partner each week for follow-through, integration, and continued practice.

    Private Cohort Chat:
    A shared space for reflections, encouragement, and celebrating wins as they unfold.

    This structure keeps the work alive between sessions, and builds community and support that can last beyond the course itself.


 

Words on The Refinery coach & facilitator:

“Ash helped me go from feeling stuck and full of doubt to confidently seeing clients again, with a renewed sense of purpose I didn’t think was possible. Her mix of structure and spaciousness was exactly what I needed to grow beyond my original goals.

There’s so much more I could say—her impact has touched every part of my life.”

Why Somatics?

Have you ever had a powerful insight about a habit you want to break, or a pattern that’s holding you back… and yet you kept doing it?

Insight alone can only take us so far without embodied change.

A somatic approach not only illuminates what’s happening on a mental, emotional, and physical level - it also provides the scaffolding to develop more range, choice, and alignment from the inside-out.

Through somatic cultivation, new possibilities begin to live in the body, not just in the mind. So when the same old pressures of life arise, you’re not relying on insight alone.

Group Course Testimonials

  • Blurry black and white image with indistinct shapes and figures

    Kelly | Embodied Self-Leadership Mentor - Boulder, CO

    “This course with Ash was an approachable, welcoming, supporting, and nurturing space to do some very important and potent inner work.

    I deeply appreciated the variety of exercises, some of which were surprising in their results, and the homework that nudged me gently out of my comfort zone.

    The facilitation was excellent, creating a container that allowed us all to explore with freedom and support. I feel more prepared now to continue my own work as well as help clients with theirs.”

  • Blurry black and white image with indistinct shapes and figures

    Emily | Musician - Switzerland

    “Super well-structured and organized. I loved the intimacy of the container, such a safe space to explore and go deep together.

    Powerful work that will for sure keep being digested for a while.

    The length of the sessions was perfect in my opinion, great balance between theory and exercises.”

  • Blurry black and white image with indistinct shapes and figures

    Bridget | Mexico

    “Ash holds space with compassion, integrity, humor, and grounded wisdom. This course provided a safe space for me to not only gain valuable insight into my light and shadow but—more importantly—offered tangible, embodied practices through which to actually integrate the information.

    I highly recommend this course to anyone looking to understand themselves better and gain a greater sense of self-compassion and wholeness.”

  • Blurry black and white image with indistinct shapes and figures

    Teri | Actress - LA

    “I feel safe, held, heard, and understood with Ash and the containers that she creates.

    Because of this, I'm able to more ease-fully lower my walls and let people in. And me, out.”

  • Blurry black and white image with indistinct shapes and figures

    Todd | CEO - San Luis Obispo, CA

    “They walked us through clearly demonstrating explorations of shadow with compassion and gentleness, yet with a firm willingness to welcome all: the good, the bad, and the ugly—without judgement.

    Through this course, I am radically changing the way I show up in life, and also how much I am absolutely in love with life.”

  • Blurry black and white image with indistinct shapes and figures

    AB | Business Owner - Santa Cruz, CA

    “What an avenue for growth for all. I left feeling really inspired by the group's shared experience and grateful for the facilitation, guidance, and support along the way.

    I feel bigger and more complete, it's amazing.”

  • Blurry black and white image with indistinct shapes and figures

    Roy | Participant - California

    “The course gave me insight into who I truly am.”

  • Blurry grayscale image with indistinct shapes and objects.

    Tim | Life Coach, Antwerp - Belgium

    “I really feel more alive—parts of me that were hidden and stagnant are now rising and integrating.

    I became a fuller expression of me, because I have had the loving witnessing of others while gently exploring my shadow-sides.”
