Course Details
Common questions, straight answers.
The five Career Path milestones are:
1. CHEK Practitioner Level 1 — Functional Health Coach
2. CHEK Practitioner Level 2 — Integrated Health Coach
3. CHEK Practitioner Level 3 — Rehabilitation Specialist
4. CHEK Practitioner Level 4 — Clinical Specialist
5. CHEK Practitioner Level 5 — Master CHEK Practitioner
There is also a 'CHEK Trained Professional' entry-level status, achieved upon completing your first Advanced Training Programme.
There are three levels: HLC 1 (3 days), HLC 2 (5 days) and HLC 3 (6 days). Each builds progressively on the previous level, going deeper into assessment, coaching methodology and client management.
On average, budget roughly one year per level. If your goal is to qualify as an HLC Level 3, plan for approximately three years in total. This varies depending on your current experience — those with more background in health or fitness may progress faster. We recommend allowing ample time between each level to practise and embed the skills before moving on.
On average, you should budget about one year per each of the three HLC levels. That means that if your goal is to become an HLC Level 3, you should realistically budget about three years to reach that goal. It does depend on your current level of training and experience, so those with more experience can progress faster. We recommend you allow yourself ample time between each level to implement and use the tools and skills acquired before progressing.
Building on Level 2, you need to complete: Infant Development, Spinal Structures and Function, and The CHEK Approach to the Lower Limb (online courses); plus IMS Level 3 (Advanced Training Programme).
Yes, you can! As soon as you complete your first level, you'll be able to "earn while you learn" by taking on clients while you're still a student. We generally recommend progressing to HLC 2 before taking on paying clients in a professional capacity, however that depends on your current experience and scope of practice.
Building on Level 3, you need to complete: Scientific Shoulder Training (online course); plus HLC Level 3 and IMS Level 4 (Advanced Training Programmes); plus The 1-2-3-4 of Overcoming Addiction, Obesity and Disease audio programme; and one Case History submission.
Each level significantly expands your scope. At Level 1 (Functional Health Coach) you can design advanced exercise programmes and use lifestyle assessments holistically. At Level 2 (Integrated Health Coach) you can trace illness and injury back to its root cause across integrated body systems. Level 3 (Rehabilitation Specialist) adds spinal and lower limb rehabilitation. Level 4 (Clinical Specialist) covers the upper quarter and complex clinical cases. Level 5 (Master CHEK Practitioner) represents full mastery of the CHEK system including mental, emotional and spiritual dimensions of health.
They run in parallel and are designed to complement each other. Most Career Path milestones require courses from both the IMS and HLC series. For example, Level 1 requires both HLC 1 and IMS 1, and Level 4 requires both HLC 3 and IMS 4. The two pathways are intentionally interwoven so that your movement science skills and your lifestyle coaching skills develop together.
HLC 3 is the advanced level, focusing on challenging client cases. Topics include: the chakra system and its relationship to meridians, glands and organs; stages of ego-mind development; infant development correlations with physical structure and personality; infant development exercises; the 4 Doctor approach to organ mapping; medical dowsing to fine-tune HAQ scores; advanced programme design; and daily chi cultivation (Working-In) exercises. Case histories serve as the backbone of the course.
HLC 3 is a 6-day live course.
Prerequisites: completion of IMS Level 4 and HLC Level 3 including exams; proficient mastery of all IMS 4 concepts; current status as a Licensed CHEK Professional; case histories (contact the CHEK Institute for requirements); Nonviolent Communication: The Language of Compassion by Marshall Rosenberg; and Non Violent Communication: The Basics as I Know and Use Them by Wayland Myer.
Prerequisites include: completion of HLC 2 and the exam; current status as a Licensed CHEK Professional; proficient mastery of all HLC 2 concepts; Holistic Health and Performance for Women (mandatory from 2026 onwards); a complete case history from a challenging client to bring to the course; and several required readings including Wisdom of the Body Moving, The Subtle Body, The Last 4 Doctors audio companions, The 1-2-3-4 of Overcoming Addiction, The Fungus Link Vol. 1, and The Pendulum Kit.
Prices vary by region:
- US & Canada: $3,775 (Early Bird $3,575, at least 3 months before the course)
- UK & Europe: £2,895 (Early Bird £2,735)
Australian pricing — please contact the CHEK Institute directly.
You will gain certificates of completion for each level of the Holistic Lifestyle Coaching and Integrated Movement Science series. At the end of three years you will have qualified as a CHEK Practitioner Level 3, with the option to continue to Years 4 and 5 to become a Master CHEK Practitioner.
