Matthew Cooke — Lineage

About Matthew

Matthew Cooke, SEP, is the founder and creator of Body-Based Breakthrough™, a somatic coaching academy dedicated to raising nervous system literacy worldwide. For over 15 years, he has devoted himself to the study and practice of nervous system healing, drawing from Somatic Experiencing, attachment theory, and trauma-informed methods to help people reconnect with the wisdom of their bodies.

Trained extensively with pioneers like Peter Levine and Diane Poole Heller, Matthew has guided more than 1,000 leaders through profound transformation — including executives from Google, Apple, SpaceX, Disney/Pixar, and other Fortune 500 companies. His gift lies in making complex nervous system science practical and accessible, bridging somatic theory with real-world application through breathwork, movement, and journaling.

Through the B3 Method™ and his 12-week certification program, Matthew equips coaches, therapists, and wellness professionals to embody this work and guide others with depth, integrity, and confidence.

"I had 5 women attend my session this morning—they all had breakthroughs. Moved lots of emotion. I felt nourished to connect in this way. What a switch for me from the old paradigm. Thank you Matthew Cooke for inviting me on this adventure to wholeness."

Kate Pintor

★★★★★

"I'm leaving feeling very grateful for everyone I got to meet throughout this course. I was able to understand myself on a new level and go deeper into areas of my life that I thought I wouldn't be able to. I'm so excited to bring B3 to Toronto and everyone I know. Thank you, everyone, for being rays of sunshine!!!"

Victoria Correia

★★★★★

"Huge shout out to Matthew Cooke for what he's created. I've done a decent amount of embodiment, neuroscience, nervous system, and trauma centered trainings and what he's built with B3 is concrete and accessible. It puts the wonder and discovery in the clients hands with the coach as a guide and steward. I cannot recommend his course and approach enough. If anyone's been shy to use embodiment in coaching B3 is a generous gateway."
