'I Am Man'

Men's Retreat

Disconnect to Reconnect

Friday 2 April (6:00pm) – Sunday 4 April (6:00pm)

48 hours in the Kent countryside. Fire. Food. Walking. Breathwork. Challenge. Conversation. Silence. Connection.

An opportunity to unplug from digital distractions, leave behind the pressures of modern life and reconnect with what matters most. Set within the beautiful Kent countryside, this immersive weekend is designed to help men slow down, reflect deeply and rediscover a sense of purpose, belonging and authenticity.

Through meaningful connection, guided workshops, transformational breathwork, hiking, challenge, fire, food and shared experiences, we create the conditions for genuine personal growth and lasting transformation.

What Is It?

A 48-hour immersive retreat in the Kent countryside, featuring transformational breathwork, workshops, hiking, challenge, fire, food and ultimately connection.

This is not a festival, conference or survival challenge.

It is a carefully held experience designed to help men reconnect with themselves, with nature and with one another.

• A beautiful countryside venue
• Passionate and experienced facilitators
• Nourishing food
• Meaningful conversations
• Powerful personal insights
• Time away from everyday responsibilities
• Opportunities for challenge and growth
• Genuine connection with other men

Most importantly, it offers space to hear yourself think again.

What Transformation Might You Experience?

By stepping away from everyday distractions and immersing yourself fully in the experience, you may discover:

• Greater clarity and purpose
• A stronger connection to yourself
• Increased self-awareness
• Improved emotional resilience
• A deeper sense of belonging
• Renewed motivation and direction
• Practical tools for regulating your nervous system
• Greater confidence in living authentically

Many men spend years responding to the needs of work, family and society without pausing to ask what they themselves need.

This retreat creates that opportunity.

Who Is This Retreat For?

Men of all ages who are ready to:

• Invest in their personal growth
• Connect more deeply with themselves and others
• Explore what authentic masculinity means to them
• Step away from distraction and reconnect with what truly matters

No previous experience of men's work is required.
