ZEN LEADERSHIP COACH
You’ve experienced the flips of Zen Leadership or the energy patterns of FEBI and see how powerful they can be in your own coaching. Or perhaps you’re a somatically-oriented coach just now encountering this pathway and finding it resonant.
Become a guide to others on the Way by first penetrating it yourself. In addition to Practitioner pathway courses and FEBI certification, Zen Leadership Coach certification requires regular attendance at our annual Master Class and training with our sister organization, Chosei Zen, including at least one intensive 4-day sesshin or keishin (i.e., online training).
This level of certification also offers greater interaction with and guidance from our teachers, as well as paid opportunities to coach for IZL.
To heal is to make whole again.

“As a result of IZL and Zen training, I experience life with more energy and less fear or strain. I am more alive and open with my clients. I no longer try to fix their problems, but rather be with them in a still place that allows insight to emerge from the connectedness in the moment.”

“IZL continues to serve me in ways I can’t explain…It brought me back to life and to places I didn’t know existed in myself.”

“My coaching practice appears to be taken up with clients all trying to go too fast. Several months ago, I began living out the mantra “Slow is Smooth, Smooth is Fast.”

“The growth and support that I’ve gained in IZL programs is mind blowing. No problem is too big.”
