Where practice meets presence, and becoming is celebrated.

When: 2nd Monday of each month 

Time: 5pm to 6:30pm Pacific Time

The Circle of Becoming Dojo is a sacred space for coaches to grow their craft through community, presence, and practical experience. Rooted in the ICF Core Competencies and infused with heart, we welcome coaches at every stage—whether you're just beginning or deepening your path.  

About the Series

The Circle of Becoming – Coaching Dojo Series offers a live, no-cost space for coaches to step into the heart of their development. Through facilitated practice sessions, peer feedback, and embodied reflection, you'll build coaching fluency while anchoring in presence, curiosity, and compassion.

Who it's For

Whether you're a student exploring your first coaching tools or a seasoned practitioner refining your presence, this series meets you exactly where you are. No certification required—just a willingness to practice and be practiced with.

What to Expect

Each dojo session includes:

• Live peer coaching rounds with light structure and generous space
• Supportive mentor-style feedback rooted in the ICF Core Competencies
• Reflective prompts to take you deeper into your growth.
• Optional spotlight coaching for those wanting more focused feedback
• A welcoming, non-performative space where real growth unfolds

Why Join?

The dojo isn’t about perfection—it’s about becoming. By showing up with presence and humility, you strengthen your capacity to serve, listen, and transform lives—starting with your own.

Here, coaching is more than a skill—it’s a way of being. Come to practice. Stay to become.

Strengthen Your Coaching Mastery with Monarch Mentor Coaching - Group Program

Starts June 17, 2025

Refine your impact. Deepen your presence. Embody flow and partnership. Prepare to thrive. Mentoring for ACC & PCC

At Monarch Coaching & Training, we believe coaching excellence is not simply a standard — it is a living practice. Our mentor coaching program is designed to support you in embodying the ICF Core Competencies at the PCC level with clarity, skill, and confidence.

Guided by Karen L. Bruns, PCC, you will engage in a dynamic learning journey that combines five group sessions with two individual mentor coaching sessions. Together, we will explore the coaching of all students in the group with care and precision, celebrating their strengths while thoughtfully uncovering areas where we ourselves can stretch and grow.

Following the ICF’s ACC & PCC Credential expectations, you will learn to demonstrate “effective coaching practice and substantial experience partnering with clients” — not as a checklist, but as an integrated way of being.

Within this program, you’ll be invited to explore and refine your coaching practice in alignment with the ICF PCC Markers. Together, we will reflect on recordings, be provided opportunities to coach in and out of class, share feedback, and create space for growth. 

What you will receive:

• 14 hours of Mentor Coaching in a group setting
• 2 graded recordings (totals 3 hours) to use within one year of purchase . That way, when you're ready to submit, we are ready to help you.
   

What Monarch Mentor Coaching is not:
Mentor coaches are not magicians or mind-readers. They are trusted companions who have walked the path before you — facing the same uncertainties, learning curves, and moments of doubt. Karen’s role is not to fix you or mold you, but to stand with you as you refine your own best voice and practice. Growth happens in partnership, not prescription.

Is this the right next step for you?
If you are preparing for your ICF ACC or PCC credential, looking to renew, or simply committed to deepening your coaching craft, this journey is for you. 

As part of your credentialing path, the ICF requires 10 hours of mentor coaching for credentialing. Monarch offers 17. 

Strengthen Your Coaching Mastery with Monarch Mentor Coaching - Individual Program

One on one coach mentoring for ACC & PCC, that we construct together. 

Our individual mentor coaching program is designed to support you in embodying the ICF Core Competencies at the PCC level with clarity, skill, and confidence, in a one to one ratio, where you get to deep dive with the instructor, a PCC coach on her way to MCC. 

Guided by Karen L. Bruns, PCC, you will engage in a dynamic learning journey that combines five group sessions with two individual mentor coaching sessions. Together, we will explore your coaching recordings with care and precision, celebrating your strengths while thoughtfully uncovering areas where you can stretch and grow.

Following the ICF’s PCC Credential expectations, you will learn what it means to live the markers and to demonstrate them in an embodied way, as opposed to a checklist around the arc. You'll find yourself able to let go of the arc and swim in the deep end.

Within this program, you’ll be invited to explore and refine your coaching practice in alignment with the ICF PCC Markers. Together, we will reflect on recordings, deeply dive into the markers, and create space for genuine growth. 

What you will receive:

• 14 hours of Individual Mentor Coaching 
• 2 graded recordings (totals 3 hours) to use within one year of purchase . That way, when you're ready to submit, we are ready to help you.
