We organise ourselves as a network of committed and experienced trainers who enjoy working together to ensure a healthy and sustainable framework for the growth of gay, bisexual, trans and queer men.
We exchange ideas at our retreats and festivals and share our experiences in trainers' meetings.
You can read about the values that guide us, spirituality, sexuality and so on in the other sections of the About Us section here.
Some of our guiding principles are:
Integration of Experiences
Our workshops, festivals, and retreats are designed to provide participants with ample time to integrate their experiences. We emphasize emotional and mental processing to avoid overwhelming situations, ensuring a supportive journey towards personal growth.
The Power of Nature
Nature plays a crucial role in our spiritual practices. Open landscapes, forests, and water bodies help absorb and release emotions, fostering deep connections with oneself and others. Our retreats take place in locations surrounded by nature, maximizing their transformative potential.
Elective Families: A Sense of Belonging
At our events, we bring participants together in small groups for sharing rituals. These elective families create a safe space for discussing emotions, reflections, and experiences without judgment. By engaging in shared responsibilities within the community, participants deepen their connections and sense of belonging.
Silence as a Path to Inner Peace
Silence is a powerful tool for self-reflection. We encourage participants to take part in silent breaks and meals, allowing the mind to rest and integrate experiences at a deeper level.
Consciousness and Sobriety
We prioritize conscious presence in all our activities. Therefore, we work sober and require participants to abstain from drugs and alcohol during workshops, retreats, and festivals. This ensures a safe and deeply connected experience for everyone involved.
