My time with Cintima has led me to a deeper understanding of intimacy and the importance of the work. The format works for my lifestyle and the community is transparent and supportive.

When I saw that the first lesson in the whole course was about power dynamics, I knew CINTIMA was the perfect IC training program for me. I couldn't be happier with it. The combination of self-paced lessons with open biweekly live group check-ins fit my busy schedule very well. I also think the modules are really well-designed to build one's understanding of the field little by little, and to very explicitly give guidance on "soft skills" that, although essential, one might take for granted, like communication skills. I especially appreciated the attention paid to admin — it's such a crucial part of the job, and often overlooked in these types of certification programs. The final, in-person choreography module brought all the lessons together and made us put it all into practice. But perhaps the best part is that after you complete your training, you're mentored as you go into your first jobs. I've felt really supported entering the field, and know that whenever I encounter an unexpected or tricky situation, I have responsive and caring mentors I can call on. I highly recommend CINTIMA to anyone wanting to become an Intimacy Coordinator!

CINTIMA is incredible! Becoming a CINTIMA-certified Intimacy Coordinator was the best decision for my growth as an artist and intimacy professional. Jimanekia, Jaclyn, and Yehuda have truly curated a comprehensive, well-rounded, & cutting-edge program, and they guide their students through this transformative journey with expertise and care. All of the instructors are at the forefront of their fields, so I always felt like I was learning from the best. The choreography workshop was a blast & the mentorship process was personal & thorough. I finished my certification with a strong sense of community, artistry, and the skills I need to rock it as an IC on set!
