The SomaTraining program is designed for exercise professionals and manual therapists to improve their anatomical and biomechanical knowledge, while teaching a wide range of analytical exercise techniques paired with a way of thinking that allows them to deal with complex issues their patients and clients may present.
The SomaTraining curriculum is organized into 13 courses and integrates very precise and specific exercise techniques, ranging from analytical and segmental training to proprioception and myofascial stretching. The exercises learned are an integral and supportive part of VOYER’s therapeutic treatment paradigm, helping clients reach optimum health, and athletes reach maximum levels of performance.

Program Overview
All parts of the body — the bones, muscles, joints, organs, glands, ligaments, tendons, joints, blood vessels, and nerves — are inextricably linked by a large sheath of connective tissue called the fascia.
Considered by Guy VOYER, DO to be one of the most important components of his paradigm, The SomaTraining Diploma Program is a three-year course of study offered to those who are interested in working with athletes at all levels, and those who are interested in using exercise and wellness techniques to improve the general health and function of all their clients. This includes, but is not limited to, sports trainers, fitness consultants, and physical therapists.
The SomaTraining curriculum integrates very precise and specific exercise techniques, ranging from analytical and segmental training to proprioception and myofascial stretching. The SomaTraining program for fitness, athletic, and other health professionals and therapists expands on your already existing knowledge of the anatomy and biomechanics of the body. The exercises learned are an integral and supportive part of VOYER’s therapeutic treatment paradigm, helping clients reach optimum health, and athletes reach maximum levels of performance.
