My voice, my pace, and the impression I make on others has changed when I started consciously working WITH my body instead of shutting it down and buldozing it.

I used to treat tension in the body and negative emotions as enemies. They slowed me down on the way to faster progress. In reality, they were messengers, and I shot the messengers every time.

It's been almost 7 months since I started working on my accent. I learned ALL THE SOUNDS, but this didn't help me sound more American. I sound correct, but not quite American. Not yet.

Things started shifting for me when I started listening to my body and learning more about my own resistance than about the sounds of American.

The real work begins here.

That's why I want you to experience what this work would mean for YOU. Embodiment, Integration, Holistic Approach - these are just words if we don't practice them.

Your inner state changes EVERYTHING. What changes your inner state is how you feel in your body. Working with your BODY in the right-now moment is 10x faster than years of therapy where you explore your past traumas. Going to the past is necessary too. Therapy helps us understand our traumas, but understanding them is not enough to live differently in the present.

The body must learn to act differently, not your mind. Your mind will force you to continue doing what's familiar. That's why so many of us are stuck, even though we understand why we're stuck.

Can you relate too?

The beauty of the practice is that we can teach our body to react differently.

We're starting a 6-month program with Joni, Boris, and myself on OCT 6, which is today!!!

This program is ONLY for those who is familiar with my work and method. If you have done any other programs with me before, you can apply.

I have room for ONE more beautiful human, and maybe it is you!


If you need more confidence, more presence, more skills to express yourself in the most authentic way, join the 6-month practice with us.


The MAIN focus of these 6 months is going to be INNER STATE, and AUTHENTIC EXPRESSION.

Of course, we will also do a lot of English practice to sound more confident and natural in real, spontaneous conversations with people.

DM me @nataliatokar to jump in!!! This group gets the most discounted rates and the best conditions.

How do you create genuine connection in another language? In any language really?

Empathy can sound like this:
"I don't really know what to say, but I am so glad you told me"


Sympathy usually sounds like this:

- "I'm sorry you feel this way"
- "At least it's not as bad as it could be"
- "Focus on the positive!"
- "Here is the tissue. Please stop crying"
- "You are so strong! Your father just passed away, and you continue grinding and performing"

Knowing thousands of words in a foreign language is so not enough to create and master relationships with people.

Many people are stuck at the level of translating every word and remaining oblivious to the impact of their words on another.

The advanced level is the level of nurturing relationships. That's the only reason we actually need another language: to create some sort of relationship with others. We don't want to feel othered, we want to belong with others.

There's no textbook on that. No language school will teach you these skills. That's why I vote for PRACTICE, again and again.

Come and practice with me in a dedicated group of amazing individuals if what you need is to BELONG with others too.

If you're an immigrant who needs English to create meaningful relationships, get a high-paying job, sell your ideas and services to native speakers, or feel the freedom of expressing yourself authentically, check out my group coaching program that begins on Oct 24, 2024.

COMMENT "YES" to Book a 30-min call with me so we can talk about your specific needs. The call is free for you.

Yesterday I promised to share something special.
This is only 12 minutes long, but it explains a lot of what I’ve been sharing recently.

Listen to this conversation.
Such conversations happen so rarely.

What does it mean to express your real self in another language? How does that sound? What words would you need to express your truth?

Let me know in the comments if that resonates.

If you want to be a part of these conversations, let’s book a 20-min call and talk about your needs.

The methodology that I use helps people develop their metacognitive skills and become better learners.

You can apply this approach to learning any non-trivial skill, including full, authentic, and spontaneous expression in a foreign language.

➡️ To try it, enroll in my free course "9 essential skills to achieve native-like fluency". Create an account and start practicing.

➡️ To work with me, join the next group coaching program "Native-Like Fluency" (start date: Oct 24).

❤️ DM me to book a 20-min free discovery call

➡️ The recorded "Native-Like Fluency" program is available at 70% off. You can practice on your own time and still get individual feedback and attention.

A fragment from my group coaching program.

To learn non-trivial skills fast, you need to learn A LOT about yourself and how you learn.

Not "how to study", but "how to learn new skills".

If you want to be spontaneous, fluent, and authentic in a foreign language, you don't need to memorize lists of words. You need to learn to FEEД and understand, and then communicate what you feel and understand in THEIR language.

If you understand a lot but can say very little, this is not true understanding.

If you understand it because you have lived it (not because you heard or read about it), you will find a way to express it.

Spontaneous speech is all about EXPRESSION in real-time. Your expression doesn't need to be messy, clunky, or awkward. It can be clear, beautiful, and real.

➡ Apply to join the new cohort to learn to express the REAL you in a foreign language.

We begin on Oct 24.

We will go together and we will go far: regular practice until April 2025 will absolutely change how you sound, think, write, and express yourself in English.
