The GPS of Life · A session for students and young adults · 16 September 2026 · Live online
An open GPS of Life session for students and young adults: two hours online with Samer Hassan. For the Hajj Volunteer Health Program team, who spent the season fully present with the pilgrims, attendance is a gift from Kun Coaching Academy in appreciation of what they gave: enter the team code at checkout. **Everyone around you carries a map for your life. Only you carry its compass.** A major. A career. A job market that asks for everything at once. Everyone around you has an answer, and among all those voices your own is barely heard. In two hours we set the noise aside, so that before the decision, you meet the one who will make it: you. **What you leave with** - A felt, bodily sense of the difference between a choice that is yours and one that belongs to someone else. - One real question from your life, looked at from your own bearing rather than from the pressure around you. - A first taste of the three skills: presence, profound listening, and authentic expression. The session is built on Somatic Thinking™, a published, presence-based methodology, and is led by its creator, Samer Hassan, founder of Kun Coaching Academy and an ICF Master Certified Coach (MCC). You are listened to without being advised, what is said in the session stays in the session, and the meaning and the decision remain yours. **When and how** Wednesday 16 September 2026, 6:00 to 8:00 pm Riyadh time, live online. The price sits with the seat on this page. Register with your name, email and WhatsApp number; your seat is confirmed at once, the join link reaches you a day before the session, and a reminder an hour before. This session is a short introduction to the program. For the full circle, the [GPS of Life](/en/programs/gps-life) page lists upcoming circles.
Ihya: Reviving the Body · October 2026 · Egypt
When you make peace with your body, your self begins to heal. Reviving the Body is where Ihya begins: the first doorway into Kun's family of residential retreats built on Somatic Thinking™ and led personally by Samer Hassan, ICF MCC. It is made for anyone whose body walks one road while the mind walks another, until the signal between them goes faint: living from the neck up, cut off from the body's own quiet intelligence. Over four days and three nights, from a Thursday-afternoon arrival to a Sunday-afternoon return, a small circle rebuilds that relationship. You learn to listen to the finer signals: the weight of a footstep, the rhythm of a breath, the feel of a body finally at rest, until sensory acuity returns as a daily skill. Sensory Engineering shapes every day on purpose: light, sound, texture, movement, food, and silence, from waking to sleep. Sunrise walks, conscious eating, evenings by the fire, and spaces built for silence and stillness. No fitness is required; the retreat rests on bodily awareness, not exertion. And this edition holds eight people only. A circle kept deliberately small, built for depth rather than crowd, where each participant has a private in-person coaching session with Samer Hassan, using advanced Somatic Thinking™ technique, reaching what the circle alone cannot. You leave with a calmer relationship with your body, built on listening rather than control, a sensory acuity that stays with you day to day, and a balance that returns from deep bodily awareness. My own journey showed me that the body shapes thought. It is not a vessel for it, and this retreat was born from that certainty. This is an educational awareness experience, not therapy: no diagnosis, no treatment. And when the retreat ends you do not simply go home. You join the Companionship, Kun's living worldwide community, and a follow-up circle meets roughly two weeks after you return, to help what began in your body hold. Whoever gives life to one, it is as though they gave life to all mankind, the Qur'an teaches (Al-Ma'idah 5:32). Revival ripples outward, and for the body, it begins with the body itself. Begin there. This edition gathers at Diwa Lodge in Tunis Village, Fayoum, in the Egyptian countryside where the first Ihya circles began.
Your Method · October 2026 · Arabic
*The tools were never the problem. What's missing is a method no one could mistake for anyone but you.* Your Method is the journey where you build exactly that: not borrowed from a template, but excavated from your own roots, your identity, your values, your lived experience, and given a structure. This is the October 2026 cohort, fully online, open to three doors at once: coaches and trainers who run rooms, leaders who decide under pressure, and founders building a company they want deciding like them long after they have left the room. You walk in through whichever door calls you, and walk out holding a method that is yours. The journey moves through four phases. Foundation builds the human first, then the craft: how to accompany one person deeply, the Somatic Thinking™ way, and you receive this work yourself before you ever offer it. This phase runs inside the same live cohort as the [Individual Coaching Foundation](/en/programs/stce#stic) intake, so if you are building a method of your own, you sit in the same room as those on the coach-education ladder. Activation puts what you learned into your hands: real clients, sessions recorded and reviewed, and mentors who watch you practise and refine you one conversation at a time. Building is where the forge opens: from your identity you learn to lead group work that keeps its depth, then you forge the method itself, from your roots upward, until every principle holds and takes a structure and a name. Graduation and Practice is the final stretch: your method's structure is completed and documented, with individual and group mentoring walking with you to the door. 138 hours, ICF Level Two accredited, with Samer Hassan, ICF MCC, guiding the journey personally. Twenty-five live sessions, every Sunday and Wednesday at 6 PM Cairo time, from 25 October 2026 through mid-January 2027. The cohort holds 15 seats only, small enough to be seen by the person leading it. You graduate accredited, with your method built and ready to lead with: a documented program carrying your name if you came through Coaching & Training, a decision-logic that holds under pressure if you came through Leadership, or an operating method that turns who you are into how the company decides if you came through Entrepreneurship. And when the journey ends, you join the Companionship, Kun's living worldwide community. Read the full journey on the [Your Method program page](/en/programs/menhajak).
Individual Coaching Foundation (STIC) · October 2026 Cohort · Live online
"You cannot do the coach. You have to be the coach." This is the foundation everything Kun teaches stands on: not tools you perform on people, but skills grown into your humanity. Individual Coaching Foundation (STIC) is the root every branch of Somatic Thinking™ coach education is built on. Ninety-two live hours, ICF Level 1 accredited, working on two tracks that never separate: the human behind the coach first, then the professional coach. You practise with real clients from the first weeks, and you receive Somatic Thinking™ coaching yourself, as a client, living the method from the inside before you ever offer it. This cohort runs fully online, live: fifteen sessions, every Sunday and Wednesday at 6:00 pm Cairo time, starting Sunday 25 October 2026. The cohort is capped at twenty-five seats, because live work needs closeness. Its prerequisite is [An Introduction to Somatic Thinking](https://kuncoaching.com/en/courses/somatic-thinking-intro), a short recorded course that lets you taste the method honestly before you commit to its foundation. This cohort is shared ground, serving two journeys at once. If you arrive from the coach-education ladder, it is your second step after the introduction, and the first credit-bearing station of the ICF Level 1 pathway. If you arrive from [Your Method](https://kuncoaching.com/en/programs/menhajak), your Foundation phase happens here, in the same live room, doing the same work, and the October Your Method cohort begins the same day. After the Foundation the paths part: ladder learners continue to Your Identity and their specialisations, and Your Method participants continue inside their own programme to its later phases. In celebration of the launch of the Kun coaching platform, everyone who registers for this cohort during September 2026 receives An Introduction to Somatic Thinking free. The offer is valid until 30 September 2026 only.
Group Coaching (STGC) · December 2026 Cohort · Live online
"What happens in a room with a group is not one private session repeated across several people." Group Coaching (STGC) is the level where you learn to hold a whole group's field with the same depth you hold an individual session. Coaching a group the Somatic Thinking™ way is "activating knowledge": every person in the circle becomes the active author of their own learning rather than a passive receiver, and the benefit of one session reaches everyone in the room at once. This cohort is for a coach who has completed three stations: [An Introduction to Somatic Thinking](https://kuncoaching.com/en/courses/somatic-thinking-intro), [Individual Coaching Foundation](https://kuncoaching.com/en/programs/stce#stic) (its next live intake, October 2026, is [here](https://kuncoaching.com/en/events/stic-oct-2026)), and [Your Identity](https://kuncoaching.com/en/courses/your-identity). Having absorbed the method at those stations, you now build on it to serve a whole group rather than one person. The cohort opens Sunday 13 December 2026 and meets every Sunday and Wednesday at 6:00 pm Cairo time, across ten live online sessions, running through mid January 2027. Thirty-four live hours, accredited at ICF Level One, in a circle of twenty five seats. In celebration of the launch of the Kun coaching platform, everyone who registers for this cohort during September 2026 receives the Your Identity course included, at no extra charge, an offer valid only until 30 September 2026. You leave holding the skill of group coaching the Somatic Thinking™ way, with ICF Level One accreditation added to your record. Group Coaching is the station that completes the [Your Method](https://kuncoaching.com/en/programs/menhajak) composition: An Introduction to Somatic Thinking, then Individual Coaching Foundation, then Your Identity, then Group Coaching.
