At YOLA Academy, we see education as a conscious path of development – an invitation to explore yourself, find clarity and deepen your impact. Our programmes combine personal growth with professional competence.
The basis is formed by the Holistic Life & Business Coach (HLBC) training – a life-changing path that combines coaching, psychology, mindfulness and facilitation into a holistic approach.
In addition, we offer the following for practising teachers, coaches and trainers selected modules such as the Ikigai Facilitator in order to expand and deepen existing practice.
The HLBC training is at the heart of the YOLA Academy. It is aimed at people who want to accompany, lead or inspire others – and who want to understand themselves first.
Holistic Life & Business Coaching means seeing people as a whole: body, mind, heart and environment. You will learn how change really works – based on modern psychology, neuroscience, positive psychology, mindfulness and systemic thinking.
This training takes you from self-awareness to relationship intelligence and empowerment to coaching in a business and group context. You will develop a clear attitude, learn to hold spaces, conduct conversations that touch people, and design processes that move them.
It not only makes you a competent coach, but also a conscious person, communicator and leader – clear within yourself, effective with others.
The training is aimed at people who want to consciously accompany, guide or inspire others – and are prepared to start with themselves.
It is ideal for:
Prospective coaches, who are seeking a well-founded, practical and human-centred education,
executives, who want to live their role with greater awareness, clarity and empathy,
Trainers, counsellors and therapists, who wish to expand their work with holistic coaching skills,
People in transitional phases, who want to reorient themselves and find their calling.
HLBC training combines personal transformation and professional qualification – for anyone who wants to develop an attitude rather than just learn tools.
You don't need any prior knowledge, but you do need openness – towards yourself, others and change. What matters is not where you are right now, but that you are willing to take an honest look at yourself and grow.
The following are helpful:
Curiosity and willingness to reflect – the desire to understand yourself better,
A genuine interest in people and how development succeeds,
The courage to experience – because transformation does not happen in the mind, but through experience,
Commitment and presence – towards you, the group and the process.
You will learn everything else along the way. The training programme is structured to guide you step by step – professionally, interpersonally and personally.
The Holistic Life & Business Coach training programme is divided into six consecutive modules. Each module explores a core area of personal and professional development in depth – from self-awareness to application in coaching and business contexts. Theory and practice are intertwined: you learn through experience, reflection and real-life coaching.
The training combines classroom sessions, online in-depth study, peer coaching, embodiment and nature work – for a lasting experience rather than just imparting knowledge.
In addition to HLBC training, the YOLA Academy also offers modules on Advanced study and specialisation They are aimed at anyone who wants to expand their coaching practice or continue their personal development.
