12-Week 1:1 Somatic Coaching with Adam Bear
A private, 12-week initiatory process of embodied practice, honest inquiry and mentorship. It's for men who are ready to become more rooted in themselves, face what has kept them from moving forward, and set a clear path for how they intend to live.
This is not a standard curriculum or a set of separate coaching sessions. The twelve weeks follow a clear arc, and the work is shaped around you: your body, relationships, work, habits, resistance and aspirations.
The Journey
ROOT (Weeks 1–4): Slow down, listen clearly, and build a simple, steady embodied practice.
FIRE (Weeks 5–8): Work directly with the patterns, fear, avoidance and boundaries that show up when change gets uncomfortable.
PATH (Weeks 9–12): Turn insight into action, clarify your commitments, and set a direction that continues beyond the program.
What's Included
Twelve weekly private sessions, 75–90 minutes each (in person on Whidbey Island when it works for both of you)
Individualized Qigong, embodiment and awareness practices
Personal inquiry, coaching and mentorship
Between-session practices and clearly defined commitments
Reasonable text and voice-message support between sessions
Membership in the Temple of the Red Cedar Fist for the full 12 weeks
A final integration session with a clear plan for continued practice
Investment
Paid in full: $2,400
Payment plan: 3 × $800
Your payment covers the full twelve-week container: the sessions, individualized practices, between-session support and the continuity of the process. It is not a series of hourly appointments.
This program is coaching, mentorship and embodied practice. It is not psychotherapy, medical care, diagnosis or treatment, and it does not replace care from a licensed medical or mental-health professional.

A lot of spiritual and consciousness work happens from the neck up. We read about it, talk about it, try to understand it. This training takes a different approach.
We begin with the body.
The First Gate is six weeks of foundational training for men who want to develop a deeper relationship with their body, breath, and internal awareness.
Over six weeks, we'll work with breath, standing practice, alignment, movement, and the connection between the spine and pelvis. You'll learn to settle more deeply into your physical form, release unnecessary tension, and develop the internal awareness that Qigong and other internal practices are built upon.
We'll also explore the mentality behind training — how you approach a practice matters just as much as what you practice. Each session includes time for conversation, weekly reflection, and honest inquiry into what arises when you slow down enough to actually pay attention to yourself.
This isn't about mastering techniques in six weeks. It's about building a foundation.
By the end of The First Gate, you'll have a set of practices to carry forward for years, along with a direct, embodied understanding of what internal cultivation actually means.
No prior martial arts, Qigong, or meditation experience required. Just a willingness to show up, practice, and pay attention.
The path begins in the body.
