Men’s Retreat Overview

This retreat is designed for men seeking a deeper understanding of ourselves, our relationships with others, and with the environment in which we live. Gather around the fire, shoulder to shoulder with other men who are seeking to learn and grow and develop themselves. Together we practice valuable tools to shed emotional armour, embrace vulnerability, and share openly in a confidential and supportive environment. A great opportunity to come together with a friend, son, father, loved one, to deepen your connection, appreciation and understanding of one another.

The 3 day retreat offers a flexible program of yoga classes, mindfulness sessions, sharing circles, meditation, guided bushwalk and ocean swim. The perfect blend of selfdiscovery, relaxation, and connection – an opportunity to recharge and emerge stronger in mind, body, and spirit. Indulge your senses in our nutritionally-balanced, delicious vegetarian menu, straight from our organic garden.

Join a brotherhood of like-minded men as you foster connections amidst the beauty of Byron Bay – walking together towards greater physical strength, flexibility, mental resilience and mutual understanding.

Facilitators

With over 60 years of yoga teaching and group facilitation experience, over 30 years of fatherhood, and over 140 years of being men (in this lifetime anyway)… Ross Adams, Dan Stephenson and John Ogilvie have your back, are at your service, and will be your humble guides for this weekend.

We are so grateful to have this opportunity to connect with other men who are interested in honesty, integrity, self enquiry and self development. We are passionate and enthusiastic about sharing the teachings that have been most helpful and insightful from our personal experiences with yoga and mindfulness traditions.

* Daily program may vary slightly

The yoga is a system we call Purna, a traditional hatha style with an emphasis on correct alignment and intelligent sequencing. Purna translates as complete or whole and this is reflected in the premise that we teach not just the physical postures but also an integrated approach with breath awareness (pranayama), meditation and philosophy. With the Purna system students can work at their own level, options are given for variations and modifications allowing for beginners to practice alongside experienced students.
