The Roots, GOA - India
22 - 26 January, 2027
We will spend 4 days nestled amidst the breathtaking beauty of nature in Korgaon, Goa (near Arambol).
4-day Men’s Work Training
The modern man seeks purpose, connection and freedom, but the modern world doesn’t make it easy to find these things inside or outside.
The Roots is for men who know in their bones and blood there is much more to life than: “work, eat, sleep and repeat.”
It’s for men who long for purpose, connection, and freedom.
The only way to grow is to reach the root of the problems holding us back, to bring awareness, to feel what was unfelt, and to choose a new way of living as a man.
‣ Are you ready to free yourself?
Together, we will heal old wounds holding us back and reclaim the potential that resides with us all. We will:
→ Go inward to find what’s holding you back
→ Free yourself from the past
→ Be open, honest and vulnerable
→Re-wire limiting beliefs and self-sabotaging patterns
→ Embody more freedom, love, and purpose
→ Build deep relationships with like-minded brothers
→ Reconnect to your primal power
Deep within every man resides the potential to create the life their most authentic self desires.
For most men, this potential is hiding behind addictions, depression, bad habits and limiting beliefs.
No amount of hustling, grinding, pretending, bypassing, or escaping can overcome these problems. Only by going inward and facing the root of these problems can we begin to move forward with freedom.
The Roots is designed to assist you in releasing these trapped emotions to allow them to be expressed, processed, and accepted for your highest good.
Doing this with a tribe of like-minded brothers is a life-changing experience, allowing you to reconnect with your true potential with courageous men on the same path.
An embodied experience
This 4-day training focuses on three core principles dynamically applied throughout.
-
The things holding us back in life are often deeply rooted in emotionally turbulent experiences from our past.
You’ll be guided through workshops that will help you to connect with these core wounds within us all.
-
You’ll learn and embody shamanic, somatic and scientific tools to allow your subconscious mind & body to heal these emotional wounds.
These parts of the journey are well supported, you are in safe hands.
-
As you heal the wounds that are holding you back, naturally, you will begin to activate more of your potential.
You’ll take the tools and relationships you built back into your life.
What can I expect at this training?
The Roots consist of deep group workshops, immersive embodiment experiences and sacred ceremonies specifically crafted to help you connect with your core wounds and enable healing.
Together, we’ll explore our relationships to:
The masculine, The feminine, The inner child, Love, Power, Purpose, and Brotherhood.
And other parts of yourself you may have lost connection to or never had a connection with.
The invitation throughout the experience is to move towards the unknown and open up to new possibilities beyond the survival strategies and behaviour patterns that limit your experiences.

↠ FAQ’s
-
The Roots is for men who know, somewhere in their bones, that there's more to life than the cycle they're in. If you feel a pull toward more purpose, deeper connection and real freedom - and are very curious to find the space or the brotherhood to explore that: this is for you. No prior experience with men's work needed. Just a willingness to go inward and face what's there.
-
The Roots isn't for men looking for a comfortable weekend away. This work asks you to be open, honest and vulnerable - with yourself and with other men. If you're not ready to look at what's actually holding you back, or you're hoping to bypass the inner work, the timing probably isn't right. We'd rather you come when you're ready.
-
No. The Roots is designed as a foundational training - a starting point for brothers new to men's work but also to those more experienced. We guide you through everything. All that's required is a genuine desire to grow and a courage to show up fully.
-
We keep the container intentionally small but large enough to create many connections. This is so every man feels genuinely held, witnessed and supported throughout the experience. A smaller group creates the depth of trust that makes the real work possible. Exact numbers will be confirmed closer to the training date.
-
Men typically leave The Roots with a clearer sense of what's been holding them back - and tools to begin changing it. You can expect to release stuck emotions, re-wire limiting beliefs, and feel a genuine reconnection to your power, purpose and aliveness. You'll also leave with real brotherhoods — men on the same path who become part of your life beyond the retreat.
-
Yes. We want to make this accessible to brothers who are genuinely called to do this work. Payment plan options are available - reach out via the discovery call or contact us directly and we'll find something that works for you.
