Welcome to Soma Analytics
You just signed up for Soma Analytics. This guide takes you from here to running your first athlete confidently and independently. By the end you will have completed one full cycle of assessment, programming, and progression with a real athlete, and you will know how to run the next one on your own.
Soma Analytics is the coach-facing platform. It is where you add athletes, build cognitive training plans, assign them, and read the data that comes back. Your athletes use Soma NPT on their device to complete the sessions you build.
What's ahead
There are five steps in this onboarding:
This welcome and overview (you are here)
Getting your first athlete connected and introduced to Soma
Understanding the metrics
Monitor, Integrate, Prime, Build
How to Assess and Progress a Training Plan
The active work across this guide is around one hour of platform time. Work through it in order the first time. Keep it open alongside Soma Analytics while you build so you can refer back to each step as you go. After your first cycle this becomes a reference you can return to whenever you take on a new athlete.
Go further with Soma
This onboarding gives you the foundation. What you do with it from here is up to you. Two options exist for coaches who want to go deeper.
Soma Certification
The complete professional certification in applied neurological performance. For coaches who want to understand the science behind the system and apply it with precision. Not just follow a workflow, but build one.
What is included: applied cognitive training methodology, advanced programming and periodisation, mental fatigue monitoring and interpretation, 65 pre-designed programme templates loaded directly into your Soma Analytics account on completion, a private one-hour Q&A session to review your setup, athletes and implementation strategy, knowledge checks throughout, and lifetime Hub access.
This is the course for coaches who are serious about cognitive performance as a professional discipline.
Soma Hub
An ongoing professional resource built to support your practice week by week. Research, tools, coaching support and a growing community of Soma professionals, all in one place.
What you get: mini courses on cognitive data, athlete onboarding and commercial application, weekly research translated into coaching practice, a ready-to-use resource library, Q&A and community with other Soma coaches, AI tools designed specifically for Soma, and the ability to submit any question and get a real answer.
If you want to keep growing beyond this guide without doing it alone, the Hub is where that happens.
