Self Leadership, Brotherhood & Rewilding
A unique 6-day personal development and wild adventure retreat for men.
Discover, embrace and unleash the Wild Man Within.
This personal development & wild adventure retreat is for the man…
Who wants to raise the bar in his own life or who knows that something needs to change.
Whether in his business, health, love or life in general.
The world is spinning fast, and cultural idea’s and societal dynamics challenge the modern man in his well being, role, purpose and leadership.
This Men’s retreat aims to create a strong supportive environment where men get to truly remember who they are, take responsibility for their lives and challenge themselves in wild nature.
MEN THIS IS FOR YOU WHEN..
You are strongly interested in ways to experience more personal freedom and living life on your terms.
You want clarity in your purpose and live life more meaningful.
You crave rekindling, igniting and mastering a more optimal connection between your own body and mind.
You feel that you’re currently holding a lot in your life (family, business, relationship or high end job) and want to feel better equipped to handle everything.
You’re providing for your family and simultaneously need to be present at home, maybe ignoring your own needs. You can do with a powerful reset, letting go of what isn’t serving you and deeply recharge.
You keep saying“everything’s alright”, but your inner world feels stressed, burned out, anxious or alone. It’s time to take proper responsibility and step into an environment that will support you overcome anything.
You wonder if there’s other men who are working on themselves to grow and be better and this is your place.
This is for you when personal development, self mastery and living your most empowered life is a high value to you.

Men’s Week Immersion with Joren de Bruin
More than ever men are called forward to lead themselves in an embodied, empowered and purposeful way.
The world is spinning fast, it’s easy to lose ground and ourselves. Men are needed with their depth, love and presence. Showing up and leading more from a place of love, integrity and a deeper capacity to hold themselves.
In this journey we will focus on you. On the man within who feels home inside. Feeling free, wild, integral and alive.
We will focus on the part of you that knows how to lead from within, that is fully present from the inside, with the world around him and while deeply connected to his purpose.
A 6 day retreat centred around self leadership, brotherhood and rewilding.
Testimonial ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
“Joren shines calmness, power and belief. He is deeply empathic and takes an effort to understand each one in his groups. This allows him to build a strong connection and make a memorable impact. Joren has a fantastic ability to lead a group, even in tough situations he remains perfectly calm and pulls the group together. Being guided by him is a truly transformative experience”.
- Didzis Vilan
COLD NATURE IMMERSION
Daily exposure to the elements through cold water immersion in the lake.
Deeply experiencing the practice of breath & mind.
Awareness expansion through cold nature immersion rituals with sound & fire.
SURVIVAL WITH EARTH
For hundreds of thousands of years humans have roamed the earth and passing down valuable skills in order to survive in nature.
Modern society has made many people so comfortable, to the point most men of today would barely survive a week in the great outdoors.
We see the art of survival simply as an integral skill and part of being a man.
Being able to lead yourself, protect and provide when necessary. Being self reliant and a leader others can turn to in order to feel safe and protected.
In this retreat we make a bridge between survival, and your role as a man in your own life.
We’ll offer you ways to reconnect with the wild outdoor and the wild man in you.
You will be challenged.
Through a very hands on approach, you’ll experience a practical and spiritual reconnection with the great outdoor. Practicing survival skills, being sent out into the forest on your own, harvest your own wild food and learning valuable skills like making your own fire.
POWERFUL BODY & MIND PRACTICES
We use the power of breath, sound, tribal dance and meditation to connect body & mind through energetic practices:
Breath work practice guided by live music to cleanse, release and supercharge
Sound healing journeys to relax the nervous system and tune the energetic field
Free flow conscious movement & ecstatic dance to release and connect
Heart opening meditations & visualisations
THRIVING WITH NATURE & TRIBE
We work together to create a home in the woods.
We gather materials from our environment and prepare wild meat in a self made fire.
We dance on tribal rhythms, open up voices and sing out loud or enjoy our wood fire sauna rituals by the lake.
Our Chef will make the most uniquely and best meat dishes you’ve ever eaten, as we share our meals with fellow brothers.

OTHER INFORMATION
Testimonials
“From being initially skeptical of the approach, I went on an amazing journey with Joren and the tribe. After day one I started to realise things about myself I have never questioned before, and from that point I went on a magical ride of embrace, realisation, curiosity and reflection. I come back a totally different person, a better human being. I met friends I will have for life and I am so, so grateful for being able to have experienced the work Joren does. Truly life changing”.
