We have been listening and are excited to host our next Intensive Residential Coach Training Program on the Gold Coast in March 2025.

Learn what Past Participants experienced at the Residential

'The WCA Intensive Residential was everything I had hoped for and more! Being a busy business owner and mum of small kids - it was important for me to get away from my day-to-day routine to really immerse myself in the training without distractions. From the easy to access and beautiful location, to the incredibly friendly and knowledgeable trainers - the residential fast-tracked my learning in a way I couldn't imagine doing online. One of the best and most unexpected outcomes of attending in-person, was the deep connections and friendships gained with other participants on the same journey. We have kept in touch since and supported each others' continued studies and growth. Thank you to the whole team at Wellness Coaching Australia for this experience.'
