Experience a 1-day immersive workshop exploring the nature of masculine initiation and virtuous manhood.
There will be a strong practical element to this workshop exploring the practice of weightlifting, strength training and the ancient initiatory practice of stone-lifting.
We will explore poignant questions such as:
- what is a strong and virtuous man?
- what is the role of the man in family, community and society?
- what do we need as men to further our growth and evolution?
- why masculinity isn't toxic but the lack of masculinity is.
