The BMCA Community
Join the BMCA Community
The BMCA Community Platform (hosted on Mighty Networks) fosters spaces for gathering and connection for Professional Members, Explorer Members and Community Members. Whether you’re just curious about Body-Mind Centering® or already immersed in your BMC® journey, you are welcome to join, and connect, share, collaborate, and learn with others.
BMCA offers fee-adjustment structures and payment options to better support members’ economic circumstances around the world. Feedback and personal experiences have played a vital role in shaping our Economic Leveling program for Professional Members and our self-selected sliding scale pricing for Explorer Members and our online events. These programs were born as a way to try to mitigate financial distress for as many members of our global community as possible, without putting at risk the sustainability of our organization. We believe that our focus on inviting smaller, broader contributions to support a larger portion of the community will bring us closer to our goal of global fairness and equity.
Free Community Membership
We welcome all those with an interest in Body-Mind Centering® to join our community – the somatically curious, students, friends, teachers, and practitioners.
Community membership is FREE and will help you stay up-to-date with BMC® and BMCA-related news and events.
Explorer Membership
This membership consolidates the former categories of Student, Friend, and Associate, and is offered on a self-selecting sliding scale. You can choose between a one-time payment for a one-year membership or opt for our monthly payment plans and auto-renew options. We invite you to select a contribution level that feels both meaningful and sustainable for you, helping us build a more equitable community.

Professional Membership
Those who have graduated from a training program offered by a School for Body-Mind Centering (SBMC) licensed organization may choose to become Professional Members. Professional Members are authorized to use the trademarks (Body-Mind Centering® and BMC®) in describing their workshops, classes, and other offerings. A portion of the membership price is allocated for an annual Mark fee. Professional Members must sign the Marks License Agreement, maintain good standing, adhere to ethical guidelines in their practice, and stay current with continuing education requirements.
