Hi, I’m Matt. I’ve been on my own journey of personal and spiritual development for over 20 years now.
I’m a pioneer of unwalked territory, an explorer and discoverer who loves connecting the dots of ideas.
Ideas that resonate at a cellular level within my mind and body.
I’m forever curious about what works and feels good in day-to-day encounters—and am motivated by my soul’s urge to share my gifts with the world.
I co-founded the School of Consent in 2018 along with its course curriculum, facilitating sessions and workshops for individuals, couples and groups.
A hugely important aspect of this work was and still is—educating new consent facilitators on how to teach this transformative work to others.
I’m so proud of what we’ve all achieved so far!
I’m wholeheartedly dedicated to sharing this work in empowering ways that serve individuals, couples and the collective.
The Somatic Consent family share this embodied knowledge and practices through a variety of resources.
These include a free Student Handbook, various courses on Self-love, Connection & Relating—and Practitioner Trainings with a series of Certifications. Take a look here.
Our purpose is to inspire love, connection, healthy communication and a sex positive life.
Wherever you are on your journey, I hope you can use these tools to deepen your experience.
We are still choosing Ambassadors of Somatic Consent around the world!
Do you have the dedication to bring this transformational work to your country in your own language?
I invite you to reach out & discuss how we can work together.
Somatic Consent teaches an approach which builds clarity & connection to self—as well as bonding in relationship with others.
You’ll be expertly guided to regain your full capacity to experience sensation & feeling—learning to perceive through the ‘language’ of your own body.
This dramatically elevates your ability to be and act as your natural, genuine self—with autonomy and integrity. It supports your body’s resilience to stress, promotes emotional intelligence & compassion, and offers an enormous neurological improvement in coping with the ups and downs of life.
Somatic Consent enables people to develop their authentic voice—rooted in inner wisdom & guided by their desire to recognise and embody their own inner truth, wishes and needs. This creates incredible space for new uplifting experiences.
The Somatic Consent Academy supports all people in developing the awareness to see life as a way of expressing oneself & to feel safe and at home in their experience of it.
The end result is living and working according to your own ideals while knowing that you always have a choice, are flexible, adaptable and free.
Together, we practice spiritual, cultural, social and ecological renewal & create forward-looking narratives for a new relationship to ourselves, others and the environment & societies we live in.
Somatic Consent Academy Values
Somatic Consent is built on the foundation of the following values. We try to maintain these values in every interaction, no matter how big or small, easily detectable and seen or more obscure.
Courage
We create a culture in which we feel safe to explore and express what is alive for us. We encourage each other to experience the great depth and breadth of human emotions and expressions—while taking care of individual and group-oriented needs.
Embodiment
The body is a powerful tool to nurture the seeds of growth within us. If we give priority to our body’s wisdom, we can live our values safely & with integrity.
Responsibility & Consent
We are all experts in ourselves and responsible for our thoughts, feelings and needs. We show radical love and respect by asking someone for their readiness to fulfil our desire to connect. We practice staying connected & appreciate the answer despite whether it’s a yes or no.
Radical Imagination
We know that human imagination fills our landscape with possibility & is a key element in maintaining a world that serves all.
Radical imagination requires;
1. the courage and intelligence to recognise what is possible to change
2. the ability to set new action & collaboration in motion, in order to drive social change
Collective growth
We utilise intergenerational knowledge, share experience & insight. We strengthen connection to self and others while celebrating our differences. Through this we free ourselves from the feeling of separation and division. We move instead towards a system of life without hierarchical structure—where individual sovereign rights, choice & flexibility is encouraged, while maintaining what is most efficient for the whole.
Community
By understanding and reflecting on light & shadow aspects of being, we celebrate diversity & remember how we can thrive together. We prioritise interpersonal well-being, in order to build resilient networks that strengthen collective consciousness.
In this way we explore a new form of society in which each individual can align themself with what resonates within.

Communication Skills
As human beings, we all need intimacy. We all want meaningful connection with those that are dear to us. But how many of us are actually keeping ourselves from this because of our conditioned ways of relating?
We’ve all developed unconscious survival strategies in order to feel accepted.
Most of us have patterns of behaving along the lines of:
“I do something to make you feel happy, so that you’ll love me and I’ll belong.”
We’re conditioned to believe we’re better people if our actions focus on giving for the sake of others—and that receiving through our own action is connected to selfishness, violation, abuse or other shadow behaviour.
But what if we’re also allowed to go into action for our own benefit—to receive pleasure—and that this isn’t at all selfish but greatly adds to the benefit of all involved?
Somatic Consent offers engagement & communication tools to break old patterns, so that you learn to authentically respond to others. It helps you establish the organic balance between desires & boundaries. You learn how to ask for what you really want, and how to go into authentic action for your own benefit while respecting the limits of others.
